		<description>My brother served in the Corps 67-69 and came home with 3 purple hearts, and two bronze stars with oak leaf cluster. I served in the Army 69-71 and did not get the wounds fortunately. I do not think this Murtha character is anymore a HERO than Kerry (as the swiftboaters pointed out).</description>

		<description>Jason - you&#039;re a good man.  I live in Pennsylvania, but on the opposite side of the state...  Therefore I can&#039;t vote against him.

To tell you the truth, I never even &lt;em&gt;heard&lt;/em&gt; of him until he started making the &quot;pull out before we win&quot; statements, and then he started calling Iraq a quagmire constantly comparing it to Vietnam and finally he stabbed our troops in the back by condemning them and smearing the Marines. 

HE MUST BE STOPPED.

EVERY PENNY SENT TO DEFEAT HIM IS MONEY WELL SPENT!</description>

Even if she doesn&#039;t win, it will help drain Murtha&#039;s funds.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s sad.  Murtha has degenerated into a characature of himself.  He&#039;s a military supporter HAS BEEN.

Put him in the wax museum - right next to Cindy.</description>

		<description>&quot;When does it become legitimate to question not only Rep. Murtha’s patriotism, but his loyalty and even his sanity?&quot;-Bryan

I question all three everytime he opens his mouth.  Murtha must be kept in some kind of reasonable context.  He was a war hero, NOW he is a politician using his war hero status to further his political career.  Didn&#039;t he just throw his hat into the ring for a leadership position in his party?  One that he was asked to put on hold?  And wcarr, who wrote above, is right of course; there is obvious animosity towards the Marines and the military in general from this guy.

Our military exists to protect this country and complete the missions given to them by their civilian leaders.  Their mission, their purpose, their existence as soldiers, are one and the same.  How can anyone possibly support our troops and not support their missions around the world?  That is a rhetorical question here at HotAir, but for Murtha, it is one that should be answered and answered honestly; if that is a value he still holds.</description>

		<description>After 38 years in the Marine Corps Murtha was only able to get to the rank of Colonel. This despite the fact that he was a congressman!!! This explains his great animosity for the Marines. Passed over for promotion how many times? Should have made General that time or been pushed out.</description>

		<description>Murtha&#039;s 80% talking point is taken way out of context.  Here&#039;s a rundown from http://mediamatters.org/items/200511230002 where this 80% sledgehammer came from.  

Though Murtha&#039;s resolution does not indicate the source of the cited poll numbers, it appears that the data originated from a private poll of Iraqi opinion commissioned by Great Britain&#039;s Ministry of Defense (MOD) in August. As an October 23 article in the British newspaper The Sunday Telegraph noted, the poll found, among other things, that &quot;[f]orty-five per cent of Iraqis believe attacks against British and American troops are justified&quot; and that &quot;82 per cent are &#039;strongly opposed&#039; to the presence of coalition troops.&quot; While this poll apparently did not specifically ask respondents to indicate support for immediate U.S. troop withdrawal, earlier polls have. A CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll (subscription required) interviewing 3,444 Iraqis in the spring of 2004 found that 57 percent of Iraqis thought &quot;the U.S. and British forces ought to leave in the next few months,&quot; with 71 percent of Iraqis viewing the U.S. military &quot;mostly as occupiers.&quot; As The Washington Post reported on May 13, another poll, which was commissioned by the U.S.-led coalition and also conducted during spring 2004, indicated that &quot;[f]our out of five Iraqis report holding a negative view of the U.S. occupation authority and of coalition forces&quot; and that &quot;82 percent said they disapprove of the U.S. and allied militaries in Iraq.&quot; In January 2005, Zogby International released the results of its Iraqi public opinion poll, which was conducted in conjunction with Abu Dhabi Television. It also found that, of the 805 Iraqis interviewed, &quot;[m]ajorities of both Sunni Arabs (82%) and Shiites (69%) ... favor U.S. forces withdrawing either immediately or after an elected government is in place&quot;; 53 percent supported attacks on coalition troops; and only the Iraqi Kurds favored the &quot;continued U.S. presence.&quot;

And of course - it&#039;s a poll, which means it&#039;s skewed, reflective of the opinion of the pollster moreso than those polled.  As Stalin said, it&#039;s not the voters that matter, it&#039;s the person who counts the votes.  Apply it to these polls - Murtha&#039;s death grip on a single poll number on a question that was not asked is beyond comprehension.  But then again, when have liberals been concerned with facts...</description>

		<description>Thank you for your inestimable service, Jason, and God bless you.  My father, who lies buried in Arlington National Cemetery, never thought of his commitment to protect and defend his country as a sacrifice.  Like you, he considered it an honor.  Pity, Murtha doesn’t have the same mindset.</description>

		<description>Everytime Murtha Opens his mouth it costs American and Iraqi Lives.  He has embolden the Enemy, and the more he talks, the less likely the insurgents will get fed up with their own lost cause and quit.  They see hope with every sylable this guy utters from his sewer.

I would love to see General Washington, Patton, MacArthur address the cowards of the United Staes like this idiot.  Add to that..Kerry, kennedy, Kucinich too.  

If the founding Fathers coule see what America is becoming, where cowardice, treason, and cheering for the enemy (plus the murder of millions of babies, suppression of Christianity) would be allowed and praised...they would have said &quot;Screw it&quot;...</description>

<p>If the founding Fathers coule see what America is becoming, where cowardice, treason, and cheering for the enemy (plus the murder of millions of babies, suppression of Christianity) would be allowed and praised&#8230;they would have said &#8220;Screw it&#8221;&#8230;</p>

		<description>This &quot;marine&quot; contradicts himself so freakin’ often in ONE interview!  Just a few I picked up on I don&#039;t see others picking up on (or maybe I&#039;m blind):

&quot;1% of the American people... that&#039;s who&#039;s fighting this war&quot; followed by &quot;...Our inability to prevent another war because we don&#039;t have the resources.  A fifty billion backlog of equipment shortages...&quot;  Now does he expect that we wouldn&#039;t expand the size of our military in the event of another war?  What happened to the WWII mentality?

&quot;They have a 1,000 foreign fighters.  This is a civil war.&quot;
0_o ?!?!?
Um... foreign fighters I thought would imply an invasion, not a civil war.  Maybe I&#039;m the crazy one.

I can&#039;t believe he thinks we should be there for oil:
&quot;All of us know how important it is internationally to win this war.  We know how impor- We import 20 million barrels of oil a day&quot;.  So this really is a war for oil for him.

I also think measuring victory by electric, gas and water production is funny.

&quot;We can&#039;t win this militarily&quot; are words that on real marine would ever utter.  I know.  And if he was a Lcpl under me, I&#039;d have him cleaning toilets till we won this war.

Wish I had more time, but his 20+ min interview is too full of bizarre statements and contradiction.  I really need to get back to work.</description>

I swear, John Murtha and his &quot;cut and run&quot; Democrats are absolutely clueless when it comes to the military.  On Meet The Press yesterday, Murtha gives his usual speech about redeploying our troops in Iraq &quot;over the horizon&quot;.  What&#039;s his idea of &quot;...</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Reagan didn’t withdraw from Lebanon quietly.&lt;/i&gt;

I was in Germany at the time working AF Security, and we were activated for mobilization in response to the Beirut bombing. We spent about a week gearing up and getting ready to roll, probably to North Africa, where we would have supported air operations. We had a final meeting scheduled the night before we were supposed to fly out, and that was when we were told we weren&#039;t going. 

Next thing I knew, we&#039;re invading Grenada, and packing out of Beirut. Later we come to find that we&#039;re selling weapons to Iran, the sponsors of the Beirut murders. 

That will never sit right with me. It&#039;s little wonder they don&#039;t respect us or fear us. We&#039;ve just kept showing them our soft pink underbelly and letting them stab away at it. You&#039;d expect that from Carter, but not from Reagan.</description>

		<description>It is so stupid.  When he wants to justify that the situation in Iraq is a disaster, Martha says: &quot;There are 15,000 foreign fighters...&quot;, but when he wants to justify the withdrawal he states: &quot;There are about 1,000 foreign fighters...&quot;  All in the same interview for the same price, a bargain.</description>

		<description>easy: The New Testiment was founded on the Old Testiment, the Old Testiment was founded on early Semitic Scripture that prefigured the Bible. The first laws were written down in Babalon I belive Thou shalt kill etc. Anchent Myhtologys, like the Jewish, Greek, Egiption, and Babalon Religon worshiped women. Liberty, Freedom, Venus, Artemus are Greek and Roman Goddesses. The Golden Rule you will find in many Religens.&quot;Evil Eye of Hours Lady of Slauter mighty One, Do Unt Me As I Would have Done Unto Uthers.&quot;  The Bible says Yahweh&#039;s, Alter was horned,and he was somtimes addressed as a phallic stone, &quot;the Rock that begat thee,&quot; as well the phallic &quot;horn of my salvation, my high tower&quot; (2 Samual 22:3. I have seen pictures of Anchent ruined Temples and I could pick out the Alter because it was horned. The Muslem Religon is not a true Religon. Woman are looked down upon, as slaves. In one book of the Quran calls the Jews &amp; Christians the people of the book, in another book Jews are APES &amp; Christians are PIGS. What is worshiped at Mecca are STONES that were worshiped by the Pagans before Mohammed took the City over. I think they were Meteorites. Anyone who does not belive in the &quot;Book&quot; is an &quot;INFIDAL&quot;, and must except Islam, if not you will be killed, or you will become a slave. When you have Slavery, when people can not think freely, when people are afraid to express themselves, the Culture does not advance. It&#039;s 1:47am, and I am making a lot of mistakes, so I must end this post. Easy some other time we can post about this. I must have a clear head.</description>

		<description>Rowane and Birdman,

When we are fighting the Islamic terrorists, what comes to your mind?

I tell you what comes to my mind. It is all about a religion gone wild! In the middle age we have the Crusade ( the Christians went wild), now we have Islam!

I have to give credit to the Christian because they have made tremendous growth to become a civilized religion in past 500 years. But Islam have not made that transition amid huge progress was made in the field of science.

We are not fighting a religious war because we are not fighting under a banner of a religion. May be most of the troops are Christian but we must be careful not to have religion mixed up with our mission.

Our mission is to fight terrorism that happens to originate mostly from Islam.

Our country must learn from this era. Religion is not a good thing when people blindly obey the religious leader and put their faith above all else.

Christian right must bear this in mind.

Christians must accept the fact that majority of the world do not accept Jesus as God. If they force this issue then they are no better than Islam.

Conservatives in America must be opened to all sects, all races and all classes of people.</description>
