If I did my homework right,Rep Murtha wants to "redeploy" all the troops in Iraq and Afganistan to Okinawa.and send them out to trouble areas as needed.I also think he FAILED map reading. Okinawa is further away from either area than they are from the U.S.!I am also of the firm belief that Rep.Murtha traded his soul for a chance at power. And that's just sad.
