Please help me understand exactly WHY Murtha is considered such a "patriot" by the MSM? Exactly WHAT has he ever done that is pro-America?

You're asking the wrong person.

From his .gov website (for what its worth now)

Military Service Awards

Distinguished Service Medal of the United States Marine Corps, upon his retirement from the Marine Corps Reserves for 37 years of distinguished service to his country, 1990.

Distinguished Service Medal, Pennsylvania's highest honor, 1977.

Meritorious Service Medal, Pennsylvania's second-highest honor, 1976.

Bronze Star with Combat V, 1966.

Purple Heart, 1966.

Purple Heart, second award, 1966.

Vietnamese Cross of Galantry, 1966.

American Spirit Honor Medal of the Marine Corps Recruit Department, 1952.

All this is nothing short of heroic for a patriotic soldier who fully supports his country and is willing to do what is needed to see that it stays the strongest in the world, but in his old age he has flushed it down the toilet with his cut and run cowardice.

Never surrender your upper hand to the enemy.
