Liberals would never do such things or use such rhetoric...hmmmm Flashback 40 years or so. You might recall the Viet Nam era .. you know the one where our soldiers were spit on, had feces thrown at them, raged at with all kinds of cursing by the thousands of liberals who conjured up their latest attacks in the comfort of their dorm rooms paid for by rich daddies who could afford to keep them out of the draft...

Murtha would be very proud of you. A US Soldier is attacked, and your first response is to call him a liar and discredit his story. And the "blame" for this war is entirely on Islamofascist terrorists hell bent on converting the entire world to Islam --- or killing those who won't. I could be persuaded that this war has not been managed as best it could have been, but I don't blame one bit of the <em>cause </em>for this war on my country or our President. Preston — Sen. Murtha would be very proud of you. A US Soldier is attacked, and your first response is to call him a liar and discredit his story.
