Murtha insults his constituents, so they re-elect him.
Murtha insults the Marines, so the Navy gives him an award.
Strange world.
WAY TO GO NAVY! (You stupid morons!)
Same navy that gave the Kerryspaz medals, same navy that didn’t dishonorably discharge him...wonder which party control SecNav then? Hmmmmmmm.
(No insult intended to the real sailors in the Navy. Insult intended to the political clowns at the top. It appears that we have an admiral problem.)
Okay, how about a "three hour cruise?"
Murtha, who publicly accused U.S. Marines of cold-blooded murder in a firefight in Haditha, Iraq, and was caught on camera in the Abscam scandal appearing to negotiate a bribe, was honored by the Navy for his "selfless devotion to the Nation's Sailors and Marines."
WTF? Have they been drinking and smoking illegal things? Maybe they caught syphilis while sleeping around...
I signed on to sign this petition and signed OFF. Why? It is March, 2009 and an AMERICAN citizen has suddenly realized that he is AFRAID to put his signature on a citizen’s petition. In the United States of America.
In the past couple of days, I’ve seen Murtha’s compatriots call for “violence” against Americans who merely obeyed the law, a law recently passed by Congress.
I’ve seen everything this country ONCE stood for denigrated and villified by the CHOSEN leaders.
I’ve read of a President who thought that WOUNDED WARRIORS should be required to pay for their own medical treatment. Yes, he backed down, but the fact that the thought even entered what passes for his mind is horrifying.
I’ve watched and listened as ELECTED officials ignore their personal culpability in causing today’s problems as they DEMAND AS THEIR RIGHT to take charge of the curing.
Yes, I admit...I’m afraid...very afraid.
God help the United States of America.
I signed this, and emailed to every veteran I know, plus asked them to take it to their American Legion, VFW, Fleet Reserve, etc., meetings.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Thanks for the ping, jaz. You know, I’m thinking awarding this honor to Murtha could further add to proving Undue Command Influence (UCI) in both LtCol Chessani and SSGT Wuterich’s cases.
You would have to be blind to think Murtha’s cold-blooded comments did not affect the Haditha Marines and helped ensure charges would be preferred. If the Sec. Navy is so concerned about rewarding Murtha for his help with defense appropriations, why wouldn’t he throw a handful of his own Marines under the bus for the “good of the Corps”?
Let me be clear - someone needs an ass kicking for approving this. Murtha hates the military men and is plain spoken about it.
I hope Mr Murtha receiced a class A beat down, followed by a nice refreshing hour or four on the waterboard.
These utterly corrupt politicians and their stooges in high places can posture and obfuscate all they desire....truth is we know what they are and can see through their deceptions like Windex on glass. The timing of this Navy award is highly suspicious in tandem with the acquittal of LtCol. Chessani. I’m surprised the Navy stooges didn’t have Code pink present the Hog with the award!

Why are people on this thread blaming the ‘Navy’ as though anyone on active duty had a hand in this.
The award was signed by SecNav Donald C Winter - GWB’s SecNav since 2006, however it should be noted that the award was given March 5th - after GWB left, but before Winter departed. It is unclear at this point whether this award was Winter’s idea or if the Obama administration was involved.
This kind of thing is so outragous that it is unbelievable.
I will sign the petition.
All crap eventually floats to the top!
Eight Duece on the loose!
My brother is a retired Captain, so it's clearly not the whole Navy I'm referring to.
