GOP attempting to Kerry-ize Murtha!!!
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1560074/posts

But Murtha is a Democrat accusing a Republican. So it fell to the Cybercast News Service, (CNSNews.com, which I founded), and reporters Marc Morano and Randy Hall to look into the Murtha military record. What they found were a lot of similarities to the military record of John Kerry.

Like Kerry, Murtha’s medals came for surface wounds that never caused his evacuation from the battlefield, and like Kerry, he attempted to get his medals by political manipulation, in Murtha’s case, through then-Rep. John Saylor. But Saylor’s office felt it was odd for Murtha to seek medals for “superficial lacerations.”

2. Won't matter.

Murtha is too well respected, too well connected militarily, for it to do any damage. His audience in this theater, I believe, are his peers in politics more so than his constituents. Mean Jean got her ass handed to her for attacking Murtha.

Don't forget, (I did) repubs tried to sneak Hunter's bill in place of Murtha's. Even they knew Murtha couldn't be attacked head on.

3. They're "Swift-Boating" him
Good catch! If you'll note, the ratfucker in question is L. Brent Bozell III. He's a high-visibility murine sodomite, and he deserves all the abuse we can heap on his craven, scabrous, dirt-encrusted ass.

One of these days, the Swift Boating is going to backfire like a gummed-up rifle in the middle of a firefight with Victor Charlie -- or, in this case, Delta Uncle.

--p!

4. Do they have a cite for how Kerry manipulated politically to get medals?
Seems to me the Navy is pretty stingy with Silver Stars.
