"our troops have become the enemy"

Murtha said that.

To the Sunnis they always were.

"The Iraqis against us" because of "Abu Ghraib"

He's reading the NYTimes talking points.

What does "forget about the veteran" have to do with pulling out of Iraq? What does these casualties already sustained have to do with surrender?

See, Murtha has gotten old, and can't stand the suffering of war any more. He's forgotten what war means.

The FATHER wants to pull out the son, the SON doesn't want to come home.

But the Father insists, and Murtha gets the guy pulled from Iraq? A congressman can get a grown man pulled out of the army because his daddy is whining?

Murtha has made this all about the individuals who are suffering, rathr than the SECURITY OF THE UNITED STATES!!!!

This is about our SECURITY, not the suffering of the families who have given so much for our security. Sorry, it's harsh, but that is what it is.

Our troops did not BECOME the enemy. WE ARE THE ENEMY because Al Qaeda CHOSE to attack US.

Yeah...and he is again saying that Abu Ghraib is what turned Iraqis against us. This is BS. Heck, the Iraqis were just caught with their own torture chamber.

Murtha is just giving one anecdotal story after another. This is so typically Dem. Bring out the sob stories about the poor starving mom on welfare, the poor soldier w/no armor (they've got armor and have had it for a long time), the poor family of the dead soldier. There are a lot of families out there that are PROUD of their dead son's and daughter's and their service to our country in a war zone. They aren't all anti-war like Murtha is portraying these families. Time for a grand finale now by the Pubs. Hope it happens.

There's LOTS of Baby Boomers posting here tonight, I wager....

One right here. I thought ignoring the original remark was the better part of valor, fast-moving thread and all.

He sincerely believes that withdrawing out of Iraq is in our best interests

And it's just coincidence that it comes at a time when all the rest of the RATS are coordinating the same attack.

Sorry, he may have been decent before but he's been co-opted now.

Too bad we saved Lantos' hide. He's despicable.

He attended a fund raiser in Connecticut and my Dentist (who claims he's a republican) said Lantos mesmerized the crowd so that he gave him a sizeable check. Mega barf.

Now to hear from a real hero Sam Johnson!

Total Allied casualties on D-Day are estimated at 10,000, including 2500 dead. British casualties on D-Day have been estimated at approximately 2700. The Canadians lost 946 casualties. The US forces lost 6603 men.

If they want to campare to Normandy, they might notice how many we lost on that SINGLE DAY!!!!
