3. Murtha: Mounting pressure from citizens...
...will force the bulk of US forces out of Iraq by the end of the year.

6. Murtha is doing very, very well.
Point by point by point, Murtha wins the arguments. Including the Al-CIAda letter and tape, Murtha wins the argument. He is brilliant. This will be a must see. Murtha is right. Murtha is right.

7. I just love this man
on this issue. He's the best.

I also like how confident he is about the soldiers coming home by the end of the year. I hope he's right.

:patriot:

8. Yeah, the troops will be out of Iraq by the end of 2006, alright...
...because they'll be shipping the poor barstids to Iran.

pessimistically,
Bright

9. Murtha was great.
Reasoned, compassionate, courageous. I really respect this man and would give anything to see a majority of our party`s "leaders" endorse his exit strategy.

No matter what the administration`s Swiftboaters do to this man, Murtha`s point....that had Bush or Cheney ever been in combat, they wouldn`t be so quick to send soldiers off to die....will resonate with lots of people.

10. "I was wrong a year ago"
WTF? A politician who can actually admit when he was wrong?
Murtha was amazing! He may be a "conservative" Dem, but I would vote for this man for any office!

Murtha gives me hope that this farce IS being exposed.......

13. Watch Bush steal Murtha's thunder...
...and say he(Bush)too, agrees with a "phased withdrawal".

(Republicans are NOT going to let this spin against them. They will cut into the line ..AHEAD of Murtha.)

14. I wonder what Ed Schultz is going to say about Murtha tomorrow...
Last time Murtha spoke out, Ed trashed him. I stop listening to Ed since.

17. He was fabulous....
A man who says what he means, and means what he says. We need many more like him in Congress.

19. I thought the segment on North Korea was interesting too.
They said that the United States would attack them with neo-cons were in control. They said that this administration were like Nazis and that they were prepared to use Nuclear weapons if that happened. It's almost like they have been reading DU.
