“There was no firefight. There was no IED that killed those innocent people. Our troops (Marines) overreacted because of the pressure on them, and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood.”

That’s quite a slogan for a navy ship designed to support the Marine Corps: “The USS John P. Murtha will be an amphibious transport vessel able to carry 700 Marines, their equipment and supplies.”

Disgusting. I just hope that President Palin will take office in time to fix this symbolic slap in the faces of all real Americans and to repeal the substantive evil of the far left liberal era.
