Did you see John Murtha on Meet the Press this a.m.?

I’m glad he said he’d run for Majority Leader if he gets the chance. It shows that the Enlisted Military is represented politically with integrity. The Pentagon and Government bureaucracies represent themselves quite nicely in the “private” sector. Murtha could be at the table and speak with legitimacy for “rank-and-file” Military who are not well represented in ALL of the Difficulties they’ve had to bare, including the majority of the responsibility for Abu Ghraib, for Bush’s War. The majority of the responsibility for the fact that BushCo has no plan outside of Stay Forever.

1. Loved his comment about how easy it is for Rove to sit on his

fat behind and support the war.

2. Oh, my. If people hear stuff like that,

they'll know some dems are for real. :D

[patrice]

4. The Enlisted ARE in a Very Bad Place!!!

It isn't cowardice to say so. It is Brave to resist Dangerous People like Rove and Cheney, who've never put themselves into danger for what they assume others Must. That makes the U.S. War Slaves.

[patrice]

3. It is true.

One of many truths about this "man".

6. I was cheering at the TV when Murtha made that comment about Rove.........

.....it put everything in perspective didn't it?? :rofl:

11. Me too

He's a good patriot, and I think the Dems would stand more in unity with his leadership. :kick:

[JHH]

5. A true leader

We need more like him

[patrice]

7. I trust him.

That's unusual for me.

8. Murtha

Being from Pgh I've known him for years. The thing is that he is conservative on some issues, but it is an honest opinion and he tells the truth about how he comes to his views. The dems. are a diverse group, it is our strength as well as our weakness, but never forget that our basic ideals are rooted in fairness to the average joe or joan.

9. Well said

[patrice]

10. Honesty is the basic Issue.

Everything else is worked out by real groups of honest individuals together problem solving for shared needs.

12. I was glad he got to be on by himself

without a couple of Repugs there to shout him down.
