Hawkish Democrat Calls for Iraq Pullout - GOP nightmare gets worse
"It is time for a change in direction," said Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., one of Congress' most hawkish Democrats. "Our military is suffering, the future of our country is at risk. We cannot continue on the present course. It is evident that continued military action in Iraq is not in the best interests of the United States of America, the Iraqi people or the Persian Gulf region."
"The war in Iraq is not going as advertised. It is a flawed policy wrapped in illusion," Murtha said.
"Rep. Kay Granger, R-Texas, said Murtha's call for withdrawal was "reprehensible and irresponsible."
"It shows the Democratic Party has chosen a policy of retreat and defeatism which will only encourage the terrorists and threaten the stability of Iraq," Granger said.
These people will never stop connecting Iraq with terrorism even though Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 or with Al-Qaeda. The nerve they have to talk about the stability of Iraq after that country was bombed and invaded based on misinformation, distortion and flat out lies is absurd. They are in complete denial of what they have done and continue to do.
