Rep. John Murtha, a House Democrat who called for the U.S. troops to surrender in Iraq, has gone from supporting the troops but not the mission, to not even supporting the troops any more. Murtha's insults are the most heinous since Senator Dick Durban called our soldiers Nazis and compared them to Pol Pot. Neal Boortz comments on Murtha's objectionable comments.

...yesterday, Murtha was at it again. Speaking to a group in his district in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Murtha said that troops will leave Iraq in the next year because the Army is "broken, worn out and living hand to mouth." Such a vote of confidence!

So not only does Murtha want to admit defeat and leave the battlefield, now he wants to say that the troops will be leaving because they aren't up to the task. If you read between the lines, Congressman Al-Murtha is saying the war is lost because the troops have failed.

Consider for a moment what Murtha's comments might mean to the Islamic insurgency and Islamic terrorist factions around the world.

No, consider what Murtha's comments might mean to our troops. It has been my experience that bashing a soldier's family of service is a good way to get your ass kicked. You can tell a Marine that the Marine Corp logo looks like a buzzard sitting on a beach ball with an anchor shoved up his ass. But you'd better be prepared to defend yourself when you do it.

That Murtha is a United States Representative is a shame. Democrats should distance themselves from this loon.
