HERO AND NO HERO

Congressman Sam Johnson, Republican, 3rd District of Texas

A real American hero.

Wingflap, gawfer.

However, by contrast:

Jack Murtha, no hero.

From Sweetness & Light:

"...we hear this today, via the terrorist enablers at Reuters:"

"Murtha Touts Way to Choke Off Iraq War"

"They won't be able to continue. They won't be able to do the deployment. They won't have the equipment, they don't have the training and they won't be able to do the work. There's no question in my mind," the Pennsylvania Democrat said.

Murtha, an ex-Marine in his 18th term, made his remarks in a webcast on movecongress.org, which hopes to influence Congress to stop the war in Iraq.

Also, from Sweetness & Light:

-- "Murtha Tells Moveon He Will 'Force Redeployment'"

-- the MoveOn video with Murtha's statements

-- the ABSCAM Video (undercover investigation of John Murtha who is captured discussing accepting bribes, never declines accepting, suggests pending acceptance);

-- Many Murtha news links...

and, VOTE COUNT: "The 17 Republicans Who Voted For Defeat In Iraq"..."Only two Democrats in the House stood with our country and our soldiers in Iraq...Representative Jim Marshall (GA) (and) Representative Gene Taylor (MS)."

ABSCAM video link among many other articles regarding John Murtha was posted here in BIRD on November 12, 2006, "PELOSI PUTS WEIGHT BEHIND MURTHA IN LEADER BID", and in November 09, 2006, "JOHN MURTHA AND NANCY PELOSI: CORRUPTION OVERTAKES THE CONGRESS".
