Rep. Everett later wished he had chosen his words more carefully but did not apologize.

Murtha is a TRAITOR and I consider him a member of al-Qaeda or a strong supporter as are most left wing Democrats.

"Republican Rep. Terry Everett of Alabama unleashed an unusually harsh attack on a House colleague, calling decorated Vietnam War veteran John Murtha, D-Pa., a cut-and-run idiot."

Not Murtha. Not Rep. Murtha. Decorated Vietnam War veteran John Murtha.

Matthew Mazonkey: "Congressman Murtha's record of supporting our troops and our veterans speaks for itself,"

Hey Mazonkey, is this an example of it?

"Congressman Murtha's record of supporting our troops and our veterans speaks for itself," Mazonkey said in a statement.

Yes, it certainly does. Mazonkey tried to lie, but he blew it.

decorated Vietnam War veteran John Murtha, D-Pa????

Hey AP, Benedict Arnold was a decorated Revolutionary War veteran and one of the best leaders under Washinton's command before he decided to defect to the British!

I live in Rep. Everett’s district, and I couldn’t be prouder of my congressman. Unfortunately, he’s decided to retire...but there’s been talk that he might run for governor once he’s washed the smell of Washington out of his clothes.

Asked on Friday about his comments, Everett did not apologize but issued a statement saying he wished he had chosen his words more carefully.

"Thank you for your service as being an ex-Marine but that doesn't mean you're (not) a f*ck**' idiot, and he is," Everett said of Murtha.

That's the only way he should change his words.
