Yes, Murtha and the rest of the lib, white flag wavers are a bigger threat to our safety and security than Al-Qaeda.
As is evident from the traitorus acts of the MSM and the left.
"a U.S. victory obscured by defeatist anti-war reporting"
They are trying to do it again, but - NOT THIS TIME, msm, NOT THIS TIME!
Here is poor ‘ol Harry making a fool of himself again:
WALLACE: Well, let me ask you directly, because the president says the congressional leaders were briefed repeatedly over these four years. You've been the Senate minority leader for several years. Were you ever briefed on this?
REID: The president can't pass the buck on this one. This is his program. He's commander in chief. But commander in chief does not, I don't think, trump the Bill of Rights, and that's what this -- Congress has not been involved in setting up this program. This is totally a program of the president and the vice president of the United States.
Pelosi says “I remember it differently…”
Three elections in Iraq; Saddam on trial; al-Qaeda clearly weakened - - - - Murtha and his buddies over at the Pentagon have just lost their war. The Secretary of Defense has a new broom and I suspect is using it……………………………………
Speaking of crusty, look for old crusty to raise her ugly head soon.
murtha is a french style coward.

It was only the beginning of the extraordinary maneuvers Wilson had to make to push this bill through a highly reluctant Congress. By then even his most reliable ally, John Murtha, the chairman of the Defense Appropriations subcommittee, wanted to end the CIA program. Murtha was appalled at reports of the mujahideen's drug trafficking, but in the end he stood with Charlie, and his support guaranteed the bill's passage in the House. It was passed in the Senate that fall. The secret appropriation was hidden in the $298 billion Defense bill for fiscal year 1992. When it was presented for a vote, no one but the interested few noticed the $200 million earmarked for the Afghans.

He then did a big favor for then-Speaker Thomas P. "Tip" O'Neill Jr. (D-Mass.). The chairman of the Defense Appropriations subcommittee at the time, Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.), had been caught in the FBI's ABSCAM sting operation in which an agent disguised as a Saudi sheik offered members of Congress large cash bribes. O'Neill put Wilson on the Ethics Committee to save Murtha, which he did. In return, O'Neill assigned Wilson to the defense appropriations subcommittee and made him a life member of the governing board of the John F. Kennedy Performing Arts Center, where he delighted in taking his young dates.
