This is out of line. Wayyyy out of line. I am not reading this article. This man is defined by what he does today.
Wrong....
Today, Murtha is a traitor or tool of traitors --- while under suspicion for ethics problems --- and we're being asked to cut him slack because he's a "hero".
It's NOT out of line when he and his defenders demand that his critics give him "credit" for his "heroic past" while he behaves as a unethical traitor in the present -- during time of war...
I suspect the facts will show that Murtha has been a lying, posing asshole for the vast majority of his worthless, lying, cheating, stealing life...
Murtha, like Kerry, Kennedy, etc, etc, prove the saying that politicians are our only inherently criminal class.
Semper Fi
How do you know the article is way out of line if you don't read it?
BTW, Murtha is the one who brought up his service as a qualification for his POV.
