I'm sooooo confused.

"The all-consuming hunger for power admits no barriers, and must have complete dominion over everything ... an indication of the perverse, upside down system produced by the quest for absolute power, in which nothing is safe ..." George Orwell

This award dishonors every man and woman who ever served or ever will serve.

I know he was in the Marines but I don’t care. He is simply a traitor. Giving him that award is an insult to all Americans who love their country.

I believe he should win the Keelhauled award.

Hope the ship hasn't been bottom painted in five or more years.

At first I thought this story was from Scrappleface.

The military gives an award to a scumbag who tried to convict some of our bravest warriors of war crimes.

I keep thinking I'm gonna wake from a nightmare.

John Murtha: Traitor

Fair trial

Conviction

Hung by the neck until dead

Awarding this medal to this despicable anti-Troop lying politician is proof that the upper echelons of the military are no longer servicemen but politicians.

The one responsible for this should be tried for aiding and abetting the enemy.

I am glad that the asshole SECNAV is leaving. I can believe that a jerk would give a jerk an award. A dark day for the Navy.

I have friends and relatives who were and are Marines, and I am disgusted at the disrespect shown to all Marines by the SECNAV. The Marines work for the Secretary of the Navy, as part of the Department of the Navy, and yet the Navy is presenting this award to one of the few public figures who hates America and our military as much as Obama does? To quote Murtha:

REP. JOHN MURTHA: "Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood. And that's what the report is going to tell…"

BLITZER (another interview): There's an investigation of what happened at Haditha. ...you've suggested this week that there in effect was a massacre. …

MURTHA: Well there was. There's no question about it...
