Actually, the comparison of Murtha to McCarthy is inappropriate. McCarthy was a patriot, Murtha is a traitor.
But to the many rubes (2/3's dem) who read this rag, the comparison will make some of them think poorly of Murtha, and that's helpful. From the letter writer's point of view, it makes sense.
