REAL DEM AGENDA: CUT AND RUN

Dem Leader John Murtha (D-PA): U.S. Troops Killing "In Cold Blood"

_____________________________________________________________

Rep. John Murtha (D-PA) Joins Growing Dem Chorus Critical Of U.S. Troops; Claims Troops Killing "Innocent Civilians In Cold Blood":

 

Rep. John Murtha (D-PA): "Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood." ("Marines Killed Iraqi Civilians 'In Cold Blood: US Lawmaker,'" Agence France Presse, 5/18/06)

• Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL): "We are an irritant. And we help spur the insurgency, even as we are defending a fledgling Iraqi government against that insurgency."  (NBC's "Meet The Press," 1/22/06)

• Sen. John Kerry (D-MA): "There is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children ..." (CBS' "Face The Nation," 12/4/05) 

• Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV): "It's our presence that's also a problem. We're an occupying force" (Mort Kondracke, Op-Ed, "Democrats Look Weak Calling For Iraq 'Exit,'" Roll Call, 2/3/05) 

• Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) Said That U.S. Troops Were Part Of The Problem In Iraq. "'The U.S. military presence has become part of the problem, not part of the solution,' Kennedy said in remarks prepared for delivery at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies." (Lolita C. Baldor, "Kennedy Calls For Troop Withdrawal, Says Military Is Fueling Insurgents," The Associated Press, 1/27/05) 

Rep. John Murtha Promises Dems Will Cut And Run In Iraq If They Gain Control Of Congress:

 

Rep. John Murtha Claimed Dems Will Withdraw From Iraq If They Take Over. MSNBC's CHRIS MATTHEWS: "[A]re the Democrats going to seize the leadership of the Congress, win the votes, take over Congress and end the war? Are they going to do it?" ... REP. MURTHA: "We have to convince Democrats and Republicans that this war has to end." (MSNBC's "Hardball," 5/17/06)

• Rep. Murtha: "Let me tell you something, Chris. This war is going to end." (MSNBC's "Hardball," 5/17/06)

• Rep. Murtha: "[W]e've got to have a scheduled withdrawal, just like we have to have a schedule around here." (MSNBC's "Hardball," 5/17/06)

• Rep. Murtha: "My timetable is to immediately work and say to them, 'Look, you're going to have to take over yourself, this is your responsibility. And we're redeploying our force.' The sooner the better, as far as I'm concerned." (Rep. Jack Murtha, Press Conference, 5/17/06)

Murtha is one of those who used to be a Marine. Now he's just senile.

[Steely Tom]

I don't believe this guy. Another fine member of the piece-of-work party.

Memo to GOP National....

The only thing you're doing is to rile up some elderly donor somewhere to send in another donantion.

Of course, that's what the Dems use Murtha for. Murtha is good to keep the anti-war crazies sending in money and voting Dem.

The truth is that Democracy stops at the water's edge. The Dems would not cut and run, nor would they do much differently in Iraq / Afghanistan / Iran / etc. That's the sad truth that Kerry could not... would not... say.

[Thalos]

Now I'm scared. If we leave, and Iraq falls apart when we're gone, it will be years before we have any credibility on the international stage again.

[Savage Beast]

Keep 'em talkin. Make sure they get their message out.

Every time these lunkheads open their mouths or show up on TV, the American people shift into panic mode.

[detch]

I think Murtha will be remembered long after he is dead as "Ole Cut and Run Murtha."

It fits.

Look into the story behind his purple hearts and you get a clue why he won't sign Form 180.

The RNC better fight back against these bastards. And fight back loudly.

Thanks Cf!

[ladyinred]

That is one of the things that scares me most about the socialists taking power again. I tell everyone who will listen, and those who don't want to that the war on terror would end pronto! They hate America!!!! They are communists!

You got a better chance of catching polio.

[freema]

Sorry, this isn't good enough.

I want to see the Republicans spit in his face. At this point, they need to come out fighting. And this ain't it this is pussy footin' around.

[freema]

Spill it, don't hold out. What do you know?

[SE Mom]

Coming up on Hannity in the next 30 mins- one of the Swift Boat vets discussing Murtha...

Spitting prematurely may cause more harm to the spitter, if it turns out that Murtha is more right than wrong.

[freema]

Like Coop, I don't care if he is right.
He has no business hitting the airwaves at our troops expense. If it did happen, it's an isolated incident. But that doesn't much matter when it comes to the rest of the troops in theatre, does it.


He is a traitor.

And I respectfully request to be first in line to spit.

[freema]

Jesus Mary and Joseph,
THANK YOU GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


SWIFT VETS COMING OUT!!!!

Can you fill me in?

[SE Mom]

Apparently, Murtha has "sources" at the Pentagon who told him...and then Murtha decided to tell everyone.

There was an incident- there is an investigation, as confirmed by Rummy earlier tonight on BOR. But..as usual- this was LEAKED, by an agenda-whore.

[SE Mom]

This incident took place last November- and yet...Murtha decides NOW is the time to leak the information, WHILE it is STILL being investigated by NCIS.

He is an unprincipled bastard.

It's ugly- Bob Bechel(sp) and John O'Neil getting into it on H & C.

[Lumper20]

MURTHA is a disgrace to every Marine I every met. Give me a break that any staff officer was a war hero. He did nothing as dangerous as any Marine EM, NCO, or company grade officer, whose job was search and destroy or force recon. Sign the SF 180 wannabe.

[popdonnelly]

Thank you, Murtha, for criticizing the efforts of American servicemen and women, and trashing all our efforts in Iraq with your stupid comments. I hope to see you and Byrd sitting next to each other in a nursing home very soon.

[freema]

God bless John O'Neil. I'm so happy about this I could cry.

[txflake]

Is this not the last Nov. incident that sent Kerry off into '..terrorizing women & children middle of the night.."?

[roses of sharon]

Thanks for that response, freema!

FR is full of the sissified these days.

Murtha

[Valin]

MURTHA is a disgrace to every Marine member of the US Military...past and present! I was a Security Policeman, I would dearly love to show him one or two thing the Air Force taught me.

[television is just wrong]

just like McCain, hero to zero.

[KitJ]

It was a beautiful morning here in Kandahar. Hundreds gathered for a ceremony to pay final respects to the Canadian artillery captain killed two days ago.

Then I see this post. He's not only defaming the US soldiers, but also our Coalition allies who are making the same sacrifices for the same cause.

Most disappointing.

Kit.

[Lumper20]

Thanks for the correction. All who serve honorably in all branches are needed, and; they are to be respected. Thanks for your service. Without the 20th SOS and our covey FAC's, I would be dead. We need all MOS's and skills. I am sure any AP could show Murtha a thing a two. I just never met any Marine or anyone, who served in any of our uniformed services of the military, speak likes Murtha. He is one sad case. It takes all to accomplish a mission. Loved those AF golf courses. SMILE. BTW Flemming received the CMH for rescuing an RT of ours in late NOV 68 56 K's northwest of Duc Co.

[Just A Nobody]

Let not your heart be troubled. We support the troops and the mission.

This disgusting excuse for a CONgress critter is on his way out!

Murtha,"I'll tell you who wants us in Iraq: Iran, Russia, China and North Korea and Al Qaeda. There's only 1,000 Al Qaeda, 1,000 Al Qaeda. The rest are Iraqis that we're caught in between,".

Is he admitting there are Al-Qaeda in Iraq? How can he explain that Iraq is not a part of the WOT if 1000 Al-Qaeda are there regardless when they got there? I suppose he's proposing ending the WOT?

[freema]

You are more than welcome.

[E.G.C.]

BTTT

[SE Mom]

Yes- it is. There is an investigation, apparently still ongoing. Murtha's "sources" at DoD told him details- and he decided to take it public.

[Coop]

The RNC better fight back against these bastards. And fight back loudly.

You and I have contacted our representatives urging them to make a public statement supporting the troops and calling out Murtha's despicable behavior. I hope others will do the same.

[Coop]

Very nice. So if the Republicans don't do anything, they get criticized. But if they do something, they get criticized.

Right or wrong, I'd rather be doing something besides sitting back throwing criticism around. Like working to defeat Murtha and elect Diana Irey!

[Coop]

You got a better chance of catching polio.

If you really feel that way, then do something about it.

[Coop]

Spitting prematurely may cause more harm to the spitter, if it turns out that Murtha is more right than wrong.

You're focusing on the accusation instead of focusing on the accuser. No matter what happens with this story, Murtha is scum for acting as public informant, judge and jury. He's a treasonous SOB who is using this incident for his own personal gain.

[Coop]

God bless you and your family for your service and sacrifices in defense of our freedom. Stay focused and stay safe. Rest assured we're not taking this &*@#$^ from Murtha sitting down.

[Chode]

[satchmodog9]

I think a good punch in the face would be better. I save my spit for Clintons and Kofi.

[Cobra64]

I have. And I'm also happy to say that at least my Senators voted the right way. How about yours?

[Coop]

Glad to hear it. Re: senators - voted the right way on what?

[Valin]

Loved those AF golf courses

I tell ya it was really rough duty. You're not going to believe this but there were times that the chow hall actually served white wine AT ROOM TEMPATURE!

[Valin]

Instead of a punch in the nose, may I suggest our friend Mr. Club. Tools are our friend.
