Congressman John P. Murtha is dead. Let him rest in peace. The problem is, some people won't. Despite his attempts to rake the reputation of Marines everywhere through the muck, it has been decided that his name is to grace the hull of a warship, a troop carrier.
Why do they need to do this? Why the push to enshrine the memory of a man despised by most in the military - at least most I know - by naming a ship after him? Apparently, the once honored member of the Corps who later turned on his brothers, claiming they were killing innocent people "in cold blood", is so respected by the liberal left that his name deserves to be memorialized on a ship, meant to carry those same warriors he denigrated without proof.
This isn't just a statement about how the left views Murtha, it's a statement about how they view the American warrior, a loud and clear one. Here's a statement for them - we read you, five-by-five. We'll send our next message in November.
