4. John Murtha and here's why
The man was pro-war with the best of them, supporting Bush 110% for a pre-emptive invasion.

But Murtha took the time to go to Iraq and Walter Reed hospital and the man realized he made a mistake. And he came out just 2 months ago against the war; demanding that we pull our troops out ASAP!

There were 109 Senators & Representatives that supported the war vote (well it was actually a vote to support what the UN decided but Bush wormed his way around that). Hopefully Murtha will lead the way to get other pro-war democrats to realize they made a mistake and become advocates for getting our troops out of Iraq.
