The Truth About "War Hero" Murtha Comes Out
2006-06-25
(via the Free Republic)
Well, as is ALWAYS the case, the truth comes out eventually (you'd think the democrats would learn this eventually). And as it turns out, Murtha isn't even as big a war hero as John Kerry, and John Kerry did't see or really do squat in his pathetic three months in Vietnam (You did know Kerry served in Vietnam right?)...

I found a man whom fellow congressman Don Bailey of Pennsylvania, silver star and three bronze stars, calls a liar and a phony. A man who came to Bailey crying and sobbing, thanking him for saving Murtha from the ethics committee (on Abscam-related charges) at which time he admitted to Bailey that his purple hearts weren't earned. A man with a couple of years of active duty and the rest of his 37 year career spent in the Marine Corps Reserve. A man with one year in Vietnam as a staff intelligence offer. A man who's no more been in combat or is a war hero than I am. Even John Kerry has more combat experience than Jack Murtha.

#1  Heh.

Gotta love the internet. The CNS stories (here and here) were quite enlightening. And it's too bad the Stolen Valor Act will never make it into law. It could certainly put a real and painful stop to the bullshit. Note that Murtha was not one of its sponsors, LOL.

Wonder whose interests that would serve, LOL.

Fuck Murtha, Kerry, and all of their little paperwork warrior buddies.
