I think it's dubious calling someone a "Democrat hawk" when the person has for sometime been diverting funds for the military to his own pocket via his friends and relatives. That's not my definition of a "hawk" of either party.

Murtha, Moran, Pelosi and all the other democrats are just doing
what comes naturally to democrats (for over the last 30 years or so, since Vietnam anyway)--
giving 'aid and comfort' to the enemies of the US.
But with them doing it during a time of war is just outrageous.
How can they NOT possibly realize that they are providing encouragement to our enemies?
Democrats get more disgusting by the day.
To: kellynla
Up to the point that Murtha said he wouldn't join the military and said no one should, I gave him the benefit of the doubt on his views. No more. I consider him a traitor, a coward and a disgrace as a Congressman. He is certainly no longer a Marine, he is an EX-MARINE.

Use it or lose it applies to military power. An inactive military is full of opportunists and promotions are based on politics. There is no doubt in my mind that four years of war footing deployment is radically changing the "ARMY OF ONE" into a disciplined and effective fighting machine. Many careers are being enhanced based on performance and the leaders of the future are being forged. Those who serve and leave are also profoundly affected. My mother said my dad learned to pick up his socks in the army in WWII. Yet we hear none of who is distinguishing themselves, even though they will be leaders tomorrow.

Jack Murtha declare on TV that, were he younger, he wouldn't join today's military
Then thank GOD he is not younger. He brags about visiting the injured at Walter Reed. If I were a family member of an injured soldier there I would request that this bastard not be allowed to breath the same air, much less visit my son or daughter. How dare he brag about his visits to our injured troops and then announce to the world in so many words that they were suckers for joining up. I say he should no longer be allowed into Walter Reed.

Murtha, Pelosi, along with Teddy Kennedy, all suffer from DEMENTIA and belong in mental institutions. They are too far gone to be rehabilitated in prison. Murder has no Statue of limitations, so how come Teddy Kennedy still walks the streets? Murtha is a total disgrace to the Marine Core, He deserves a firing squad.

Murtha is the DNC darling. As the DC Chapter witnessed last Thursday, they are looking for the new champion to cut and run from the war. The cowards are many and ignoring them is not the answer. They are not going away soon.

There has been much hoopla about Murtha's Marine service. Maybe it's all true , but it would sure be interesting to see his file.

"37 years in the Corps doesn't give Murtha a pass on everything he says and does for the rest of his life.
After all, Lee Harvey Oswald was in the Marine Corps too.
And Benedict Arnold was a patriot at one time also."
You said it ALL with that Kellynla.

Murtha let his emotions sweep him away. I submit he is less a traitor to his country than he is a congressional slacker who is emotionally paralyzed from doing his work on behalf of the servicemen and women. He is the natural result of too many men watching Oprah.

Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi will no doubt use Murtha's words to inspire his band of thugs to hold out longer and kill a few more Americans assuring them that ultimately we will wilt like Murtha.Coincidentally the last week has seen a big upsurge in "insurgent" attacks. Words have consequences.

Pork does not come from hawks. Pork comes from pigs.
And for years, when liberal "journalists" wanted an example of bring home the bacon and dishing out the pork, they wrote about John Murtha.

There has been much hoopla about Murtha's Marine service. Maybe it's all true , but it would sure be interesting to see his file. All I can find is 10% of it active duty, one year of it in Vietnam with docrations. There's a mention of Captain Murtha taking over the 314th Special Infantry Company but nothing beyond that.
Most of his Marine career is a black hole...

The Congressman is quoted saying that the U.S. Army is "broken, worn out" and "living hand to mouth."Sign Idea for a counter-Freep of Murtha:
MURTHA:
"BROKEN, WORN OUT,
LIVING FOOT IN MOUTH"

Murtha is saving his crooked ass...he was to be investigated for crimes he's committed through his serving as a congressman; influence pedaling of contracts to family companies due solely because he's in congress and is on the committee/s and helped to award those contracts. This is highly illegal, however, if republicans now go after him in congress...the rats will scream it's because he came against the iraq war. He's nothing more than a self serving bassturd....
