Letter to Congressman Murtha from Dave Rockwell
LauraIngraham.com ^ | March 15, 2006 | Dave Rockwell

Posted on 03/15/2006 1:05:48 PM PST by Past Your Eyes

I have watched intently as your political party has attempted to use this war for political advantage and find it to be repugnant in the extreme. That your name is now inextricably linked to Senators Kennedy, Biden and Durbin-politicians who we believe do not support us-must be of great concern to your constituents.

How can you ask us to leave? Must we forget all the sacrifices, the deaths, lost limbs, lost marriages and the daily struggle to win? What do I say to my 22 year old nephew, a Staff Sergeant with the 1/75th Rangers seriously wounded in Mosul last month or his brother, a Sergeant in Germany just back from Afghanistan or my niece in ROTC, or my brother-in-law, a Lieutenant Colonel getting ready for his second deployment? Would you have me tell them that all we have done thus far is for naught? It means nothing? How about, "Don't worry; it happened to us coming out of Vietnam." Don't you remember?

Not sure if this has been posted before or not. If so, my apologies. It certainly deserves wide dissemination.

Hadn't seen it. Thanks for posting. The letter should have been sent to all of the bash-America lefties.

I heard Laura read this letter (which the guy gave her when she was in Iraq).

What a magnificent smack-down of the traitor party and its new poster-boy. I never ever want to hear Murtha emit a single whine about being poorly treated after coming home from Viet Nam. He's so grotesquely opportunistic and slavishly partisan that he'd just as soon commit the exact same injustices against today's heros. What an irredeemable piece of steaming excrement.

Thanks for the post, I hadn't seen it. It is hard to understand how Murtha can ignore our brave military personnel like Trooper Rockwell. I can only assume Murtha is an opportunist of the worst kind.

I have nothing but contempt for Murtha and hope he suffers greatly for the consequences of his traitorous actions.

I'm going to have to play that wav at work where I have a T-1 line. Obviously it has to do with my tag line. BTW, I LOVE yours. May I steal it to post elsewhere? Never mind, I already have. ";^)
