Murtha wants an immediate cease-fire in Lebanon
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | 8/2/06 | James O'Toole

Posted on 08/02/2006 12:51:47 PM PDT by GeorgiaDawg32

Mr. Murtha, speaking yesterday at a Post-Gazette editorial board meeting, was asked if he favored a cease-fire in the campaign north of Israel's border.

"I think so," he said. "I think it would be very difficult to justify continuing on."

Referring to the Bush administration's position, he said: "You know, they say, 'Well, we want a long-term cease-fire.' It seems to me you start with a cease-fire, and then you try to work out the details long term. If you don't, and you continue to have heavy-handed military action -- and I support heavy-handed military action because it saves your own troops -- but it creates enemies, and that's the problem we have."

what is REALLY DISGUSTING is that he is using his military service as a legitimacy shield to protect his insanity.

He is using military service as a disposable barganing chip or a cheep suit.

I made a call to his office, and one of my "compliments" to the person on the phone was that this American traitor should not use his name along side of "U.S. Marines". He is a disgrace and a piece of gutter trash that should receive an honorary courts martial. They got the message.
