A SOLDIER'S PERSPECTIVE
THE WEB'S LEADING MILITARY BLOG SINCE 2004
For those that still support Murtha Focker and his constant abuse of our military, I offer the following information:
It’s pretty obvious that the killing of Zarqawi was a military victory, even though Murtha doesn’t think so. Two 500lb bombs were dropped onto the heads of Zarqawi and his minions. Troops rushed in and confirmed the kill along with Iraqi Police. There is VIDEO of the bombing and numerous pictures that show a lifeless terrorist.
However, the Pennsylvania representative is a little confused, or is just in denial.
In a Thursday morning interview with CNN’s Carol Lin, Rep John Murtha (D-PA) said that he wasn’t sure US troops deserved credit for Zarqawi’s death.
Lin said that this was “a very big day for this administration” and then asked Murtha: “Is it fair to say that this attack and the killing of Al-Zarqawi wouldn’t have happened if US troops were not on the ground?”
Refusing to give President Bush or US troops credit, Murtha responded: “I’m not sure about that. I’m not sure they couldn’t have done it from the outside. If it’s as portrayed, it was a bomb that killed him from the air, so I’m not sure about that.”
Lin continued: “Today was a winning strike, congressman. Is there a value to having US forces still in Iraq? What do you think would be a reasonable time-table? You once said six months.” Instead of answering Lin’s question, Murtha said: “We cannot win this. It’s a civil war.”
So much for support. I can’t help but wonder if Murtha Focker is just upset that he’s no longer in the military. Is he upset that he never made it past Colonel? Did he try to put on his uniform only to realize the extra weight prevented the buttons from doing their job? Is it possible that he’s just too egotistical to believe that the military can success without his “leadership”? I’m not sure, but Army Soldier would sure like an explanation as to why he constantly seeks to bring us down. If you haven’t guessed, I won’t stop harrassing Murtha Focker until he’s defeated and his seat is taken by ANYONE, even another Democrat.

I never did support Murtha! It makes me sick to know that he is from my home state, PA.

Murtha, another stain on what once was a great state, is being challenged by a young lady from Washington, PA. She’s a Reagan Conservative and I for one will support her at every opportunity. The National Republican Party prevented us from getting rid of that other disgrace Spector, maybe this time they’ll actually help us get rid of Murtha.

Patriot,
I can’t for the life of me figure out why Murtha keeps attacking our military. I guess it’s for political gain for his party. I think he’s making a big mistake and he’s hurting the democratic party as well as our troops!
Resign Murtha!!

I can not understand the attacks on a guy that tells the truth.
John Murtha is PRO SOLDIER!
I am a Viet Vet.my youngest son fought in Iraq.
For what?
Are we to stay to show we are tuff?
Do you not find it ironic that the big time neo cons are draft dodgers who did not serve?
Come o,wake up!!

Russ, 90% of politicians are draft dodgers!! It’s not just the Neo Cons. Look at the liberal pretty boy, Clinton. No one is immune. But, when you forget your roots and begin attacking soldiers in ways they can’t defend…I’ve got problems with that.
I’m wide awake. And for the record, welcome back and thank you for NOT dodging that draft. You’re a hero in my eyes along with your son.
