Colonel Denies Disparaging Murtha

While Mr. Bubp, a Republican member of the Ohio House of Representatives, opposes a quick withdrawal for forces, “he did not mention Congressman Murtha by name nor did he mean to disparage Congressman Murtha,” said Karen Tabor, his spokeswoman. “He feels as though the words that Congresswoman Schmidt chose did not represent their conversation.”
I’m not surprised by this - Congresswoman Schmidt has already proven herself to be a despicable little tool of the radical right wing. What I’m surprised and disappointed by is that this was buried on page two of a marginally-related article in the online New York Times. That hardly seems like a “liberal media” tactic.

“Sure, we want to go home. We want this war over with. The quickest way to get it over with is to go get the bastards who started it. The quicker they are whipped, the quicker we can go home. The shortest way home is through Berlin and Tokyo. And when we get to Berlin, I am personally going to shoot that paper hanging son-of-a-bitch Hitler. Just like I’d shoot a snake!”
