U.S. Commander Counters Murtha
2005-11-18
"Here on the ground, our job is not done," said Col. James Brown, commander of the 56th Brigade Combat Team, when asked about Murtha's comments during a weekly briefing that American field commanders routinely give to Pentagon reporters.
Being very careful about his words, Murtha Wormtongue being a sitting US Senator and all
Speaking from a U.S. logistics base at Balad, north of Baghdad, two days before his scheduled return to Texas, Brown said: "We have to finish the job that we began here. It's important for the security of this nation."
Unlike Korea or Vietnam, time for our generals on the ground to be listened too, like they did in WWII
Don't you know only the words of ex-generals who disaprove of Bush's war count today?

#3  IOW, the Lefties want Dubya and the GOP to bring back the Draft and Draft-supp, deficit-busting, Fed and only Fed-driven "war budgets", aka KATRINA-STYLE ANTI-FEDERALISM, which they will publicly criticize Dubya for doing so while silently supp the move, so that America's brand new, expanded, formerly volunteer, milfors can defeat Radical Islam by NOT attacking andor defeating it, but by "policing" and expanding it unto eternity. Sub-IOW, pragmatically the WOT is prolonged and America ends up saving Radical Islam for the Radics, i.e. America becomes its own self-justification for both Dem/MSM-alleged American-specific "IMPERIALISM/BELLICOSITY" and for new nuclear 9-11's ags America. IFF THIS WAS WW2, PEOPLE ARE TO RUN TOWARDS THE GERMAN ARMY, RATHER THAN AWAY FROM SAME, TO SAVE THEM WHILE OLE HITLER SECRETLY DEVS NUKES TO NUKE HIS OWN BERLIN AND OTHER GERMAN CITIES SO STALIN CAN DEFEAT GERMANY WITHOUT HAVING TO LOSE 2/3's-PLUS OF THE SOVIET ARMY, as honest injun as the USN sank the USS ARIZONA and other BB's during Pearl Harbor in supp of "FDR's/Roosevelt's War" ags Japan-Germany. * The pragmatic reality is electing Hillary as POTUS, and any surreal all-female National Admin., IS LIKELY THE DE FACTO "LAST HURRAH" FOR THE DEMS AS A PARTY BEFORE THEY HEAD OUT INTO THE SUNSET/TWILIGHT OF HISTORY. Jefferson thru LBJ is dead - long live the COMMUNIST PARTY OF THE USSA/USR, a weak anti-sovereign Socialist minion of SOWG = Mackinder's World Island , aka "OOOOOPPPPPPSSSSS, HILLARY DID IT AGAIN" COMMUNIST ASIA, sub-aka Russia-China.

#2  "I won't stand for the swift-boating of Jack Murtha," Sen. John Kerry, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2004, responded Friday.

Then please, Your Royal Heinzess Seared in my Massive Forehead Senator Lurch, remain sitting on Old Glory. Just remember to keep lifting your left cheek as you do, perhaps Big Oil can tap that gas. Heating homes is gonna be quite expensive for us folks who aren't married into our mansions and yachts, so every little bit helps.

#1  I believe he is a representative not a senator, though the UCMJ restricts comments on both.

Then again Judas was a disciple and Benedict Arnold was a general.
