Ed Henry confirms that Murtha's Resolution will be brought up today

[kpete]

Update on CNN
Murtha's resolution or "some form of it" (?)
Republicans want Murtha on the record.
Replicans will send a message to the troops that they will not retreat.
Democrats - this is a PR stunt by republicans

[Ian David]

1. Call your reps today! n/t

[SteppingRazor]

2. Then let's make it our PR stunt...

"Boys, we tried to bring you home. You accomplished your mission a couple years ago now. Or at least, that's what our Commander-in-Chief said on that carrier deck when he was wearing a flight suit.
We want you to come home, now that your mission is accomplished. We know you don't belong there trying to be civil administrators -- you're soldiers, for God's sake.
It's just a damn shame that the Republicans don't see it that way. Sorry, boys."

3. Oh, man, that's GOOD!!!!

:headbang:

[RSchewe]

7. It is good if Dems support it. I have my doubts on who will. n/t

[FreedomAngel82]

5. Yes

Fight fire with fire!

[BobBoudelangFan69]

4. GOP Reps Must Be Scared Sh|tless. Will They Hang With shrub...

with his number at 38%? Can Rove hold the line?

Kilgore of Virginia will happily tell you how much this helped.


Bush Lied. People Died. Media Cheered.

6. They should walk out.

[Pirate Smile]

8. One thing he said that made me nervous was that they may "tweak"

Murtha's proposal before they bring it up.

Why does that make me nervous? :eyes:

[SpiralHawk]

9. NB: Murtha is not calling for withdrawl, but re-deployment

He has an interesting and sensible idea for re-deploying the troops. That's what he's really talking about. I hope it does get brought up today as a Resolution. Let the chips fall.

[RSchewe]

10. Right, but people just like to say "cut and run" so much they can't stop

and pin that label to any Dem plan.

[VolcanoJen]

11. Ed Henry: Murtha will be the sole Democratic speaker on the floor...

... as the Stunt is debated.

Interesting!

[Crankie Avalon]

12. What the hell are these so-called Democrats waiting for? SIDE WITH MURTHA

Over 60% of Americans say they no longer want this war and the number is growing--why the cowardice on the part of so many in Congress about standing up and saying enough is enough over this sham of a war???
