Murtha isn't concerned about what is true and what is not. HE is just part of the MSM now and he has his template and will believe and defend any story told to him which fits the template. If the story doesn't fit, he either ignores it or criticizes it.

Can anybody remember the last time Murtha held a press conference to trumpet anything GOOD about our troops? Seems to be he is just the harbinger of bad news and failure and revels in the idea that we could be losing and have to admit defeat and retreat.

[pissant]

He's revelling in his own misery, becuase our men are doing the job, and Bush ain't gonna retreat.

[longtermmemmory]

That is easy.

The WILD ACCUSATION will incite riots on the arab street and will cause an embarassment to the administration and will push the talking point of the DNC that the USA is weak militarily.

IF THE TRUTH shows the usa is strong and did the right thing and the terrorists USED civilians to hide behind, well that truth can be burried on page 347 on a tuesday appology section.

Murtha, the liar, is only worthy of derision and contempt. He is an embarasment to those who wear and wore the uniform.

[pissant]

He is also an embarrassment to the US Congress. Unfortuantely there are more than a few of those.

Thanks, pissant. I knew there was more to this story than the leftist media was portraying. (dam them all to he!!)

God bless and protect our wonderful military.

[pissant]

Amen. Keep praying for these men AND the truth.

The MSM is trying to "create" another My Lai. As I see it, the liberal game plan for VietNam is the same playbook for today's anti-American public.

 These communist-Anti American liberals will stop at nothing to undermine this war
 

[BlueStateDepression]

the fact that many of the statements from Congressmen are derived from official briefings on the incident,

To offer you your own words about your own statement:

I'd appreciate a reference to even the tiniest scintilla of evidence to that effect.

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

The Marines found it was expedient to just off all prisoners, at least until the island was secure.

I've never heard of this. I do know that the Japanese were adverse to surrendering. Most would choose death over surrender. They were fanatics.

Once they surrendered it was considered a war crime to kill them.

[BeHoldAPaleHorse]

Generally, I don't give much credence to off-the-record statements from defense attorneys.

Good afternoon.
"I'm having a hard time thinking of a situation in which a 3-year-old girl would be considered a "prisoner.""

What do we call someone, of any age, who is detained at gunpoint and held hostage, used as a shield or murdered in order to make our troops look bad?

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

Who says we shot the three year old? The terrorists kill their own on occasion to try to blame us.

That's what I'm thinking.

[longtermmemmory]

The only way for the MSM and the Hanoi Muthas to create another viet nam is to shut down ALL the internet, close ALL cable TV, eliminate sat TV, and only allow newspapers and the three alphabet networks to diseminate information WITHOUT any opposing views.

IOW they need the 1960's 70's media machine.

Every time we show a picture of the towers, or a child smiling at the sight of the US military, Murtha dies a little more.

[caisson71]

Exactly. We have so much info that the Marines murdered innocent people, you'd think we have first hand, on the ground witnesses. Since I hold all media suspect, based on their horrible reporting od almost ever aspect of the war, I am very doubtful reporting to date is anything more than military/Bush/anti-American bashing.

[processing please hold]

Keep praying for these men AND the truth.

I will. My faith in them has not and will not waver one iota. The truth will come out. It'll probably be a one line retraction on page 72 H. As far back in the paper as they can print it. Their job is to injure our fighting men and women. That is a job they take on with glee.

I could just cuss like a sailor I'm so mad.

[pissant]

The MSM doesn't either, apparently, when it conflicts with the agenda. Lot's of credence to off the record military types, who they normally loathe and ignore, except now it fits the agenda. I smell a rat.

[petercooper]

I'm having a hard time thinking of a situation in which a 3-year-old girl would be considered a "prisoner."

[pissant]

I am cussing like one in my office. LOL

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

You may be right. Sounds plausible.

[TexasCajun]

Ours soldiers are in fear of their life every day and they should protect themselves at all times!

This B.S. from Murtha may make one of them hesitate for a split second and their blood will be on Murtha's hands!
