should Clinton go on to win the presidency, it could position Murtha for an administration post, even defense secretary. They didn't have to say that.

As for McCain, his response to Murtha was: All I can tell you is that I admire and respect Jack Murtha. Speak for yourself, Jack. Im doing fine. Thanks. Respect Murtha??? Easily the biggest pork-eating America-loathing Congresscritter there is.

There has even been speculation that should Clinton go on to win the presidency, it could position Murtha for an administration post, even defense secretary. That's called blowing smoke up some feeble old man's ass.

Visitors to The Tribune-Democrats Web site were asked in a poll last week: Is John McCain, 71, too old to serve as president of the United States, as Congressman John Murtha says?

Robert Byrd Third in Line for Presidency

They didn't HAVE to say that. Boy, are you ever right. Without a doubt Murtha would be the worst SECDEF in our nations history and that's saying something after McNamara was in that position.

Seems like they may have asked an excellent question.Exactly! Coming from the Johnstown paper, I was a bit surprised. Maybe even they're getting sick and tired of the babbling old coot. It's got to be embarrassing for them to always run cover for him. Maybe they've had enough.

No.
Nancy Pelosi is 3rd in line. Byrd only gets to be president if Bush and Cheney die together, and Nancy is so shocked at having to actually do something that she has a heart attack and dies.

Murtha looks much older than 75.

Let’s hope they’re getting tired of covering for the old coot, maybe his opponent will finally get some decent press coverage.
