WASHINGTON – Rep. John Murtha has been hospitalized in intensive care stemming from complications related to gallbladder surgery.

Spokesman Matt Mazonkey says the 77-year-old Pennsylvania congressman underwent scheduled surgery last week and is currently at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington.

Murtha was also hospitalized in December with gallbladder problems.

The 19-term Democrat was the first Vietnam veteran to serve in Congress. He leads the powerful House Appropriations subcommittee on defense spending.

My response:

Prayers going up for his recovery--I totally DESPISE this man and want him OUT of government, but not by death--I want him voted out!!

We'll see what God has planned for him.

AMEN!

[smokingfrog]

Time for him to retire?

Any guess who would take his place if he dies or can’t serve?
Appointment by Gov. or special election?

Give him the Health Care he voted for. He should not have been given a gall bladder operation because it is too costly and he is too old. Now there will be follow up care which will cost even more. Murtha is only worth 1/14th of a teenager anyway. - Obamacare

"Remembering if I can't say anything nice, to not say anything"

That's not true at all. Why claim that?

[ZX12R]

Just give him a pain pill.

[Non-Sequitur]

I think that Congressman Murtha has given too much of himself in the service of his country. He should retire immediately to conserve his health for himself and his family.

How's that?

>>I pray for my enemies.<<

You are a better person than I. God can see into my heart and knows any prayer I offer up is perfunctory. Someone who has done so much evil to the USA needs to face justice, sooner or later.

Another one. I count Murtha at 18 terms running for his 19th.

Get better soon, and enjoy the healthcare you and your fellow travelers are trying to destroy for all other Americans.

Well, I'll agree with alinsky on this one, "by any means necessary".
