VIDEO: ANOTHER VET TELLS OFF MURTHA/MORAN

Sgt. Mark Seavey was outnumbered, but not alone at the moonbat townhall hosted by Reps. Jim Moran and John Murtha last week. Near the end of the marathon session, a Vietnam veteran, General Wagner, stepped up to the microphone to deliver a message from the mother of an Iraqi war vet who gave his life for his country and for the mission. After reading a scathing letter addressed to Murtha, Wagner talked about his own experience in Vietnam:

General Wagner speaks the truth

A snippet of Wagner's remarks:

I visit Walter Reed [Army Hospital] and talk to the young soldiers with their legs blown off. I know you do, too. I can't find one in a dozen that don't believe that they are fighting for a noble cause and are fighting to go back. And I think it's a disgrace when members of our Congress --just as they did in 1975 when they sold out the south Vietnamese--are selling out our soldiers today in Iraq!

You will be jumping out of your seat and cheering by the end of the clip. When Rep. Moran answers by delivering Cindy Sheehan-esque platitudes to the wild applause of the left-wing audience, Wagner does the only thing a decent man would do: He stands up and walks out.

General Wagner, wherever you are, thank you and God bless you.

Thanks for the link. I really wasn't sure about Gen. Wagner's background. There is also an Air Force officer named Brig. General Wagner -- his bio is here.

We all have to stand up and slap defeatism down just like these two brave Americans did.

I like your attitude. That's one of the differences between today and the Viet Nam era -- today, people on the other side aren't as bashful about having a pro-American opinion and speaking up.

It takes men better than I, like the good General, to NOT just beat the shit out of these leftists when they spew their anti-military/country pap.

Shamefully [albeit satisfying as hell] I did it a few times in the late 60's both in San Francisco and Long Beach and I still don't think I could control myself if I were in their presence.

People have to be more vocal to their elected officials about forgetting all the PC BS and "spirit of bi- partisanship". Tell them to stand up and speak the truth. They know these people are traitors, they just need to grow the stones and say it.

There's so much material for '06, it's just unbelievable.

God bless them both!

"That wasn't in the form of a question, it was in the form of a statement. But, uhh... let's go over here."

I saw that soldier, and I saw Murtha and Moron's reactions.

Murtha looked at him like he was a Martian, Moron blew him off, and neither of these "patriots" had the mere decency to thank him for his service.

A few minutes later Moron went back to address that soldier's statement (an aide must have told Moron that he looked like a creep), and again the snot didn't have the common decency to address the soldier's service, but instead gave him some despicable platitudes. Murtha again said nothing.

I made it another 20 minutes before sickening from this seditious spectacle of cowardice, hypocrisy, and hatred.

Murtha and Moron are disgraces to the Congress and our Country. Maybe we patriotic Americans should spit in their faces the way our troops were spat upon to give them a taste of their own medicine. The blood of those killed because of their defeatism is on their hands and their hands alone.

Murtha might have been a good man while in the military, but he is now either senile or brainwashed.

Go General!!!!!!!

Its great to hear such an eloquent and knowledgeable speaker. I applaud his angry yet civil and focused message to these two surrender monkeys.

How can anyone say they support the troops when they tirelessly work to undermine them and support and encourage the misanthropes out there trying to kill them!

I would like to how how they can justify time spent slamming the our precious troops and our POTUS and yet not take a minute to order some lower level staffer to write a welcome home letter.

rrrrrrrrrrrrr, anger level rising.............
