When you are done with whatever you needed to do, I'm still interested in listening to the method of your madness that you mentioned in post 50.

Sorry for the delay. What I was saying was I needed to close for the night and get my meds in me. It's one of those 'can't do without 'em' situations.

I essentially stated my method in my post. I believe it's better going after him (initially!) for his corruption, then follow up with his service fraud as a final crushing blow. Doing so not only strikes at his character but also strikes a blow at Nancy Pelosi who has cuddled up with him on his anti-Iraq stance. She's become so vocal about the GOP 'culture of corruption' this could seriously damage her as well - not to mention her own issues which are under investigation. Once the corruption issue is in full swing the service issue would be seen for what it is and the MSM would have less success fluffing it off as they tried with the Swift Boat Vets.

This being said, another response to me (which I haven't replied to yet) indicates that some of the Freepers involved in this thread are actually his service comrades. That being so, I have far less concern for the issue as long as they go about it properly. By that I mean public announcements, news articles, etc. The same as the Swift Boat Vets handled the issue. Keep in mind, a large segment of the population still gets it's news from TV and the MSM. They're apolitical and tend to believe what they see. The issue should be presented to them so that it seems to come from mainstreem sources; not what can be stylized as a 'right-wing' website (now, don't go getting on me for that statement - I'm writing from their perspective, not mine).

All I'm saying is, handled properly, I believe Murtha, et. al. can be not only marginalized in the public's opinion but dealt a decisive blow to their character and credibility. Since the new Dimocrat issue seems to be corruption, then use this as the major issue in an attack against them.
