Now, I'm the first to admit I know absolutely nothing about military strategy, but it seems to me that "redeploying instantly" from 5,000 miles away isn't gonna happen. And, further, if a situation develops which needs our troops on the ground, isn't it better if they're RIGHT THERE and not travelling from Okinawa while that situation just gets worse and worse?
Murtha is turning into a real asset for the Republican Party.

Murtha is a perfect example to the cliche: Sit there and keep your mouth shut and everyone will think you are stupid. Open your mouth and everyone will know it. What a pathetic speciman for a U. S. Congressman.
And he hated Hillary, saw right through her.
The upstanding patriots (the very few) in congress need to stand this coward down in public. I'd love to see a 6'4, 240lbs DI from Paris Island give ol murtha a tounge lashing on the steps of the capital.
What a COWARD!
jack murtha is a total pig....what an a55hole!!!!
Not only has Okinawa been problematic in terms of Japanese civilian/U.S. military relations in recent years, but DoD has also decided to significantly reduce the American presence there by sending several thousand Okinawa-based Marines to Guam to reduce tensions with Japan. Does Murtha really think that the Japanese and Okinawans would agree to a massive "redeployment" of 130,000 American troops to their territory after bitterly complaining for many years about the few thousand that were already there? Moreover, where would he have DoD put all of those "redeployed" troops on that relatively modest-sized island?
I really do wish that someone in the MSM would point this state of affairs out to that imbecile the next time he brings up his ignorant "redeployment" scheme.

Murtha's "fat backside" comment sounds like desperation to me.
Wouldn't it be funny if Murtha slipped down some stairs, hit the back of his head and slipped into a coma...That'd be hilarious...What'd be even funnier is if he came to and was BLIND...That would be riotous...Why, because it would be ironic...he refuses to see the truth anyway, so who really cares if he can see..
What an ignorant MOFO..Irey is gonna kick his slimy fat ass...
Murtha is living on the edge of insanity....him talking about somebody being big.......HELLO~~~~~~~~
You Murtha...........who is paying you?????????? Besides the public taxpayers, that is?????
After reading what Murtha said on Meet the Press, I think we are winning the war against the war on terrorism. When the enemy is destroying himself its best to leave him alone. Redeploying the troops to Okinawa is the most lame thing I've ever heard of. I bet my 12 year old nephew could beat Murtha at a strategic game of checkers.
I've told this story on some other posts but I'll tell it again....was sitting in the IP Casino in Biloxi last Sunday and three young guys came into the bar and sat down (ok, I'm a dirty old lady and I enjoyed it)....turns out they were with the Penn National Guard just returning from Iraq and debriefing at Camp Shelby. The friend I was with asked what they thought of the MSM and the Dims....all three went nuts...then I said, "Well the asshole I can't stand is that traitor Jack Murtha - he's a pig" - so the one guy says, "he's my uncle" I said BS - He showed me his driver's licents (Penn by the way) and his last name is Murtha....the other two guys back him up! I said Oops, but I'm not apologizing...he said, "that ok, he's a pig and I can't stand him"....interesting evening!
Is that all we did? Right Murtha Effa, Lets try that from Okinowa...Dim Wad
I don't know about Murtha but his nephew did tell me he's the biggest crook on the planet. As a side note, during Pres Reagan's second swearing in, I was at a party on the hill and along comes Sen Howell Heflin. A friend tried to introduce me to him and he was so s&*tf89ced he didn't even realize that he was being introduced to anyone....oh well, he's gone and now we have Jeff Sessions....and am I proud of him or what!
Not only is he a jerk, he is a FAT jerk.
