Abscam Murtha has been stealing vast amounts of federal money for years.
Treason seems to be a diversion for these democrat crooks to divert our attention from the fact that they need serious jail time.
Fat chance on getting that apology. Murtha is a scum bag crook and a disgrace to the uniform he once wore.
“Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them, and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood.”
I wish I could get my hands around that fat T#roat of his.
USMC Bump.
Has this guy ever been held accountable for his outrage after outrage?
Murtha belongs in a Federal prison. Maybe some day........
Murtha’s a real son of a b!tch, and if I ever have the misfortune to see him in person, I’ll probably tell him so.
Is this true? Was it Hagee who put the bug in Murtha's ear?
Is this article serious? What mistake? This flying SOB has profited at every turn. Our justice system has let us down time and again, allowing these turds to profit.
Again and again and again...
The PC idea that because someone has once, well served the nation gives them a free pass on all future pronouncements or activities is bogus. Benedict Arnold contributed mightily to the cause of the American revolution early in the war yet his name became synonymous with traitor by its end. Here is an excerpt from the wikipedia entry on him.
Arnold was considered by many to be the best general and most accomplished leader in the Continental Army. In fact, without Arnold’s earlier contributions to the American cause, the American Revolution might well have been lost; but after he switched sides his name, like those of several other prominent traitors throughout history, has become a byword for treason in the United States.[1][2]
Arnold distinguished himself early in the war through acts of cunning and bravery. His many successful campaigns included the Capture of Fort Ticonderoga (1775), the Invasion of Canada (1775), victory at the Battle of Valcour Island on Lake Champlain in 1776, the battles of Danbury and Ridgefield in Connecticut (after which he was promoted to Major General), and the Battle of Saratoga in 1777.
That statement is a pretty good clue that everything that follows is B.S.
Murtha was one of a reported handful of lawmakers briefed in confidence on the incident by then Marine Commandant Gen. Mike Hagee earlier that month.
For those who think Murtha is just a old fool and a tool of the left, he’s not.
He had been briefed in confidence by Gen. Hagee, I’m sure the General was forthright as possible and asked congressional leaders to wait and see where this all leads.
Murtha purposely broke confidence to make political points in total disregard to the safety and well being of our troops over there.
At minimum he should resign and beg apologies
He’s a pos
What we need is a ground swell of activism to force this SOB to resign ...

Not to mention the impact of Murtha's disclosure on the lives of those Marines and on U.S. foreign policy before any official findings or formal charges had been brought in the incident.
I still say he should be made to foot the bill. Out of his own dang pocket.
So has John Murtha, a decorated former Marine himself, apologized for a very public display of contempt for the then uncharged Marines? When confronted with the current state of affairs and asked at a Nov. 20 press conference whether he stood by his May 2006 claim that these Marines were cold-blooded killers, he refused to comment, first hiding behind the excuse that the case was still in the courts. When pressed that four of the accused had been exonerated already, he continued his silence.Of course, that didn't stop him back in May 2006, just months before the congressional elections that flipped the House and Senate on an anti-war platform, from making accusations that proved untrue.
One has to wonder whether the Vietnam veteran will be held to account for his earlier rhetoric. Certainly, at the very least, he owes the innocent Marines he accused of cold-blooded murder an apology.
Darn tootin'! But a traitor will go to the gallows claiming to be innocent so I'm not holding my breath. He isn't fit to lick the boots of the Marines whose lives he has so affected with his poisonous idiocy.
He needs to apologize for what he has done.
“Time magazine reported it” . . .
When is Time magazine going to issue apologies? They were (willingly) duped by Iraqi operatives during their (shabby) investigation on the ground.
When considering surrender murtha, I am always disappointed that the English language hasn’t strong enough words to express my contempt for him. Quisling is close but still not strong enough.
