The Navy goes with money and corruption over honor.

I love the US Navy.

But they have this subset of people in it who are real bootlickers and cabin-boys.

A normal human being would have no use for Murtha except for rendering his fat body and making low-creosote logs out of it.

But there are a lot of Navy officers and climbers, might as well be gay, of course, who seem compelled to honor (sic) this worthless, treasonous piece of steaming dog cal.

I cannot fathom why they want to honor him except for the fact that they are ass-kissing for letters for promotion.

Just my two cents, please, everybody, don't take offense.

I really hate old news. It was last month.

Why not focus on Obama’s telling the Islamic world that we are not nor will ever be at war with Islam? That is a relevant story.

Murtha did a great disservice to the military and the nation, and never apologized. The secretary of the Navy did a disservice in honoring Congressman Murtha.

Bing West said it all in these last two sentences of his commentary.

OUTSTANDING article by Bing West! Thanks for posting. One of America’s finest nailing one of America’s internal/eternal DOMESTIC ENEMIES...a true POS.

There were no "innocent" civilians in those houses at Haditha. The occupants were either insurgents or collaborators. They were either "with us or against us". Clearly, they were against us:

A 12-year old survivor of the alleged massacre of innocent civilians by U.S. Marines patrolling Haditha has admitted she had prior knowledge of the plot to detonate an IED as their convoy was passing by her house on the morning of Nov. 19, 2005.

In a CNN interview broadcast Wednesday, Safa Younis - who says eight members of her family were killed by U.S. troops - recalled that she was getting ready for school as the Marine Humvee approached.

"I was planning to go to school. I was about to go out of bed. I knew the bomb would explode so I covered my ears," the youngster said, according to a CNN translator. "The bomb [then] exploded," she explained. "The bomb struck an armored vehicle. I don't know if it was a Humvee or an armored vehicle. When the bomb exploded, they came straight to my house."

The "innocent" occupants of those houses knew about the impending deadly ambush and watched it happen. They chose to collaborate with terrorist insurgents, and those insurgents used them as human shields. Now look at them.... Que sera sera.

Mind and soul replacement would have been more worthwhile.
