Murtha, who you dispise, offered a plan to retract over the horizon, hold US troops in secure positions as responders
and allow the Iraqi Army/Police to perform the job that they have 'alledgedly' been trained to do,
with quick response with air support whenever it was needed, and ground troop backup on demand.
Instead of allowing that bill to come to the floor for consideration and debate, the GOP's wrote a bait and switch bill that
basically said 'Lets retract everything now' and put it up for a vote by their enablers.
It was a poison bill and everyone knew it.
That's not legislation, that's thuggery - America deserves more than that.
This GOP Congeress has ZERO, ZILTCH, NADA, NOTHING as thier accomplishments for the country except Tax Cuts for the wealthy.
They have even gutted the Military, both in personell and equipment - and you're too partisan to recognize it.
