Pull out of Iraq now, congressman urges

Cover-up of Haditha killings wrong, he says

By Elizabeth Baier South Florida Sun-Sentinel Posted June 25 2006

American presence in Iraq is more dangerous to world peace than nuclear threats from North Korea or Iran, U.S. Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., said to a crowd of more than 200 in North Miami Saturday afternoon.

Murtha was the guest speaker at a town hall meeting organized by U.S. Rep. Kendrick B. Meek, D-Miami, at Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Campus. Meek's mother, former U.S. Rep. Carrie Meek, D-Miami, was also on the panel.

War veterans, local mayors, university students and faculty packed the Mary Ann Wolfe Theatre to listen to the three panelists discuss the war in Iraq for an hour.

Murtha is insane. I want him to keep talking, all he does is hurt the Democrats.

Anne Coulters comments ringing more true everyday. Dems/Libs say you can't criticize Murtha cause he served.

So did Benedict Arnold!

I would everyone to write, call, email their own congress-critter and demand that this clown be censured or at the very least told to STFU.

sources..he must love the NYTimes as he is their pseudo
spokesman....Michael Savage tears him a new one..every
time he opens his big and mouth... Jake

Murtha and Kos and currently pursuing the Sheehan trajectory: she began as an apparently flawless avatar of Democratic talking points - the grieving mother of a slain hero.

She was revealed to be an unhinged, egomaniacal, starf***ing moonbat.

Kos was supposed to be a bright independent and web-savvy progressive srategist who would lead the Democrats to a new generation of voters. He is now revealed to be a scummy, payola-grafting loudmouth who hangs out with stockfraud pimps and weirdo astrologers.

Murtha is supposed to be a retired marine colonel of great bravery and integrity who is reluctantly entering the spotlight to challenge injustice. He is now revealed to be a self-promoting, bribe-soliciting grifter with a clear agenda of trying to parlay cowardice into a Majority leadership.

Keep these people talking and in the public eye!

I know guys who spent more time in the head in Nam than this idiot spent in-country. Then we need to take a look at where he was and what he did while he was there.
As we take a look at the total time he claims to be in the marines we find that almost all of those years he was in the reserves right her at home playing the weekend warrior routine. He has a big mouth but very little substance behind it.

Mainstream democrats & the leaders of the democrat party are so far left they make Hillary actually look like a moderate democrat.

Now that's pretty sick!

What I don't understand is how his constituents can think that he's a good Congressman just because he is able to attract media attention by running around the country making a fool of himself.

Murtha is a walking advertisement for Early Onset Alzheimer's.

I pray that the GOP has tape of this senile idiot speaking his un-American anti-military garbage and use it in ads with Liberal Democrat running nonstop under the ad.

I think Murtha is trying to get booted by the voters.

Does anybody know the political makeup of Murtha's congressional district?

Has he billed himself to his constituents as a right leaning moderate Democrat?

I guess what I'm asking is if there is a chance of him losing his seat or are we stuck with him?

Is there any video of this "panel discussion?" It would make great internet fodder.

I checked the main newspaper (The Johnstown Tribune) in Murtha's district and did not see one word of this reported. I just hope the voters in his district are getting the news from other sources because they won't get it from the Tribune.

We do, if you are a foreign dictator or an American isolationist.
