We need a "Thank You John Murtha" thread, so here it is.
Edited on Sun Jun-18-06 04:49 PM by Brigid
There have been several threads about John Murtha's appearance on "Meet The Press" today, but none just to specifically thank him. So here goes:

Thank you, John Murtha. You are saying things that others ought to, but are afraid to say because they are afraid that standing up to the freepers and neocons the way you do might hurt their political careers or something. You are an example to all of us. May all the more timid types in the House and the Senate be inspired. :patriot:

8. Aye... thanks John, for having real courage and telling the
truth, something this band of thugs cannot do. They are incapable of it. It's nice to have some real strength in our government, and not chickenhawks that hide behind the laws they have dismantled.

17. My late dad was in the Marine Corps 32 years.
So since he's not here any longer, I hearby adopt, on this special day, Col. John Murtha as my new father!

THANK YOU, SIR. Your courage and wit and commitment to this country and her soldiers during these agonizingly insane times will go down in history.

23. Don't you think he's speaking for the Military Brass
that can't speak for themselves? Isn't he their guy in congress? I don't think he'd be saying what he does without the approval of the military.

May God give you strength and a long life so you may continue to stand up for our troops and for this country. It has been a lonely journey for you as of late but I hope many, many more will join you and speak the truth.

Thank you, Thank you!

32. Thank You Congressman Murtha -
Many members of my family have served in the military - WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War, and Iraq War.

I know that many, many families with loved ones in the military are deeply, deeply appreciative of your courage, as am I.

You and others in the Congress continue to give me hope that honesty and integrity are still integral components of our political system.

And a special thank you for mentioning Rove's lily white backside on national television ... that made my day!
