A leading anti-war Democrat is criticizing Senator Hillary Clinton on her stance on the war in Iraq.
Pennsylvania Congressman John Murtha has been an outspoken critic of the war. Last year he called on the Bush administration to immediately withdraw American troops. Now in an interview airing tonight on NY1’s “Inside City Hall,” Murtha is turning his tough talk on Clinton.
“I have been disappointed. I've been disappointed she hasn't spoken out more forcefully. She's a leader in the Democratic Party -- she's probably going to be the nominee for president next year,” said Murtha.
Asked whether Clinton would make a good president, Murtha had this to say:
“There's an awful lot of things that she would bring to the nomination process, but this is one area where she has to step up at some point and I don't know whether it's related to New York politics or what it is, but I would hope that in the next few months she would make her position clear," said Murtha.
In response to Murtha's criticisms, a Clinton spokesman said: "Senator Clinton has been a clear and consistent critic of the way the Administration has handled the war and believes the Iraqis must step up so we can begin to bring our troops home."

How did this dude every survive to a ripe old age?
Because she's In Seine and In de Nile.........
He said she's probably going to be the nominee "next year"? The election is in 2008. It's 2006. Did he forget what year it was?
Surprised that he was not fragged in Nam.
If he wants to live longer, he needs to learn to not criticize Hillary and fly on planes...
Sure....
Yeah he better watch his back. At the very least he may lose his seat. They may just go easy on him. Bill will give him 'the call' then he will drop out of his house race.
Paging Senator Clinton. Congressman Murtha's drool cup needs emptying.
He's probably doing this at her request, to make her look like a hawk on the war. She's a commie, and she will pull out of Iraq at the first chance she gets, but she is smart enough to know that to get elected, she has to fool everyone into thinking that she is tuff on terrorists.
No, he didn't forget-it's just over the horrizon-remember.

The following is a partial list of deaths of persons connected to President Clinton during his tenure as Governor of Arkansas and/or while President of the United States and thereafter. Read the list and judge for yourself
This is getting good!
Hilarious. Jabbing Hillary with a big stick. Murtha's next campaign stop may be Ft. Marcy Park.
Sometime in the near future....
This just in.... Sen. John Murtha's body has been discovered in Ft Marcy Park.... It appears to be a suicide...
Right-they will get Murtha to Ft Marcy Park on the pretext of meeting Cindy Sheehan.
I wonder if Murtha is up for a nice walk in the park to "talk" things over with the Senator?
Awesome!
