"On the floor, are not supposed to call out Representatives by name. Everyone got the point."

Thanks for the explanation. I sure didn't hear that in the bite that was played on the news. What a silly piece of decorum. I can see if another congressperson's name is used to insult or embarrass them, and I guess some might construe that's what she was trying to do, but her point was bigger than that, it being that our men who are there want to finish this fight. She was right to make it. I would have let them expel me from Congress before I would have retracted a word of it. If only the House had such concern for decorum when it comes to the kinds of slanders regularly thrown out against the president of the United States.

The Democrats start crap and cry like wimps when their hands are called. It is high time the Republicans fight these liberal idiots. Murtha is supposedly a war hero and I commend him for that but he should stand behind the troops instead of making it political and that is all he was doing is trying to score political points are being someones dummy.
