He has also said that terrorists want an American military presence in Iraq. "I think they’re trying to get this administration to stay. I think they want us there. Because we have united the Iraqis against us. We’re spending all this money and diverting our resources away from the war on terrorism because we’re involved in a civil war in Iraq," says Murtha.

Thank You very much for your research now i can stop feeling guilty about my ill feeling towards him. He is ruining the moral of my son in iraq and the troops, because they respected him and all he can say is we have lost, while they are fighting. He makes the bad guys laugh at us.

I guess it goes to show, even a decorated vet can turn into a corrupt money-hungry, unpatriotic, treasonous waste of space.
