For those of us stuck with dialup, what did she say?
“Ms. Schmidt: Yesterday I stood at Arlington National Cemetery attending the funeral of a young marine in my district. He believed in what we were doing is the right thing and had the courage to lay his life on the line to do it. A few minutes ago I received a call from Colonel Danny Bubp, Ohio Representative from the 88th district in the House of Representatives. He asked me to send Congress a message: Stay the course. He also asked me to send Congressman Murtha a message, that cowards cut and run, Marines never do. Danny and the rest of America and the world want the assurance from this body - that we will see this through. “
See was reading a message from a serviceman. The message from the serviceman to Congress was “to stay the course” and his message to Murtha was “cowards cut and run, but marines never do”.
So the DEMS who love Murtha yelled about her words! Figures!
