I read Murtha's quote 4 times and I still don't know what in the flying f@#k he's talking about. This guy is just an empty suit.

If Murtha is any example of our "representative" government, we've had it, folks. And if he isn't, why doesn't Congress discipline this delusional jerk?

Murtha wants an immediate cease-fire in Lebanon

Uhhh.

Has anyone thought to tell the Muthah that he has no authority over either Israel, Hezbollah or Lebanon?

And that what he "wants" isn't worth crap?

Note to Murtha: You're an elected representative (not for long...) for the United States, not Israel. They didn't ask for your permission, and won't if they're smart. MYOB.

If Murtha wants an immediate ceasefire in Lebanon, the place for him to go is Baalbek, Lebanon. Those are the people who need to hear his call to lay down their weapons. But the REM doesn't have the cajones to go there.

He has not been named cut-and-run Murtha for nothing. Seems he never met a terrorist he didn't like.

"and I support heavy-handed military action because it saves your own troops -- but it creates enemies, and that's the problem we have."

Enemies are created no matter what we do. So the best course is to kill them. That's the only way you diminish their numbers.

During the 90s when Clinton was doing NOTHING to stop Al Qaeda and supporting every Islamic cause celebre out there from helping them in the Balkans to trying to get Israel to surrender most of its territory to the Palestinians to Yasir Arafat nearly making a permanent resident at the White House, despite all this the 90s was Al Qaeda's recruiting heyday when they became more ferocious, powerful and numerous.

Cowering in front of these people does nothing to dissuade them. Only the CREDIBLE application of force will stop them in their tracks and give them pause. An iron fist is what they respect, not when we cower before them. Again, remember the 90s when Bin Laden was calling the US a "paper tiger" that would be "easier to defeat than the USSR."

Nope, sorry Traitor John. You can't have it both ways and claim to be for aggressive force but also for being nice to the jihadist animals.

His opponent, the lovely Mrs. Diana Irey, would love nothing more than to debate him. It ain't gonna happen...he will never agree to it!

Murtha's right. Look how well a cease fire has worked in Korea.

Of course Murtha's "Cease Fire" would apply only to Israel and not to Hezbollah/Hamas/PLO/Iran/Syria. This has been the left's tactic for years. The left gets Israel to declare a cease fire and the terrorists just keep on killing Israeli civilians. No wonder; ample evidence from independent and even leftists websites/organizations show that most of the Left supports terrorist organizations, dictators and revels in the death of Jewish civilians and soldiers (both US and Israeli).

But wait Murtha, you gutless swine, it gets better still!! There was a "cease fire" in 2000 when Israel pulled out of the "Occupied Territories" in a "land for peace" deal that you leftists loooved. A more accurate spelling would be "land for pieces" deal as the terrorists got land and hundreds of Israelis and tourists got blown to pieces. So there was a "cease fire" Murtha, you moronic piece of amphibian filth. Israel was REPEATEDLY attacked by terrorists and is now defending itself. The multiple cease fires failed because the terrorists do not want peace, they want to kill EVERY Jewish person in existence and then enslave or kill every other non-Islamic.

And you, Mr. "Gutless Wonder" Murtha, Dennis "let's destroy our arms and sing Kumbaya as the terrorists exterminate us" Kucinnich, the ENTIRE Democratic party, and all of your leftist "anti-war" allies are doing you utmost to help the terrorists win!!!!!!!!!

Does REM=REMF?

I was an REMF, but charlie did not seem to understand that. He shot at my a$$ anyway. Damn near hit me a number of times. Oddly enough, I never got shot at while driving in a convoy or on patrol, only when in base camp. I'll never figure that one out.

Murtha would make a heck of a human shield. Can probably cover a 175 howitzer, just with his butt.

Then she should show up against an empty podium and debate him in abstentia. Kind of like taking a deposition without opposing counsel being there.
