"People should feel comfortable about expressing their opinions

patriotic.
It's an issue of an honest, open debate about the way forward in
Iraq."
Or Dennis Hastert:
"But now, Rep. Murtha and other Democrats want us to retreat. They
want us to wave the white flag of surrender to the terrorists of the
world. It is unfortunate that this is all politics all the time. We
need to have a strong consistent policy that will protect our men and
women who are fighting to protect us overseas. We must not cower like
European nations who are now fighting terrorists on their soil."
Oh, and just in case you forgot 9/11, from the same batch of vitriol:
"I have known John Murtha to be a long-term veteran of this
institution. He has stood up for our troops and has helped to provide
them with the right equipment to do their job. We all saw the same
pained faces among Americans when terrorists slammed into the Twin
Towers. Did he see the faces the rest of America saw when terrorists
plowed into the Pentagon or when the plane that was headed for a
Washington target went down in Pennsylvania? I saw the faces that
day, and, Mr. Murtha, that was no illusion."
What the hell is he going on about? Oh, yeah. Osaddam Bin Hitler and
all that.
Impeach the whole damned lot of 'em.
