Murtha tears Rove (another) new one on Meet the Press: 

He's in New Hampshire. He's making a political speech. He’s sitting in his air-conditioned office on his big, fat backside-saying stay the course. That’s not a plan! We've got to change direction. You can't sit there in the air-conditioned office and tell troops carrying seventy pounds on their backs, inside these armored vessels-hit with IED's every day-seeing their friends blown up-their buddies blown up-and he says stay the course? Easy to say that from Washington, DC. 

Why is it that the military and military families have so consistently voted Republican when the GOP clearly doesn’t give a crap about them?  They talk the talk about supporting our troops, slap on a couple of yellow bumper magnets, and spew cheap dime-store slogans like “that’s the price of freedom” while playing the rhetorical role of a country at war without any demands of personal sacrifice.  Meanwhile, it is the supposed pinko-commie liberals in congress that are the only ones I hear talking about actually helping our victims in uniform. 

Guess what soldiers … if you don’t mind losing your VA benefits, you’re fine with being paid below the poverty line, you think it’s swell to be sent off into an elective and manufactured war zone, and you have no qualms about being under-equipped at the time, then by all means – Keep Voting Republican!
