SUPPORT CONGRESSMAN MURTHA
BY SGT. KEVIN BENDERMAN
Congressman John Murtha, a veteran from the Viet Nam war, came up with a well reasoned plan to start withdrawing our military from this debacle that the war in Iraq has been shown to be. Immediately after his introducing this proposal, elements of government that would not benefit from a military withdrawal, unleashed a vile personal attack on a decorated 27-year veteran. I was enraged that someone even had the audacity to call this man a coward.
Congressman Murtha received a Bronze Star and TWO Purple Hearts from action in Viet Nam. I don't know about you, but from my standpoint, this man is the exact opposite of a coward. Congressman Murtha, I salute you for your service to our country, and I salute your courage to stand up and make a well thought out, common sense proposal to get us out of this ill-conceived and completely unnecessary war in Iraq.
I respectfully urge all Americans to stand with Congressman Murtha and demand that his proposal be entered into the Congressional Record and be given a fair and open hearing so that it may be judged on its merits. The entire manner in which his courageous and wise proposal has been handled is a disgrace and an insult to Americans' intelligence.
Please contact your elected representatives and let them know that you will not stand for such an obscene twisting of facts heard in the public statements made about Congressman Murtha's proposal, or such vile and disrespectful treatment of an honorable decorated war veteran. The American people need to send a message to Congress, we will not tolerate such political grandstanding with the lives of our service members at stake.
