"Don't talk to me about defense," Everett, who is retiring at the end of this term, said during a radio interview this week. "Cut-and-run John Murtha is in charge of the appropriations committee for defense and he is certainly no friend of the military.

Calling Marines cold-blooded killers stoops much lower than being called an idiot. Yes, Murtha’s record clearly shows what he thinks of the American military and veterans.
