Murtha Says Americans Back Iraq Pullout
By Marc • Nov 22nd, 2005 • Category: For the Troops, the Ranter“JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – U.S. Rep. John Murtha (news, bio, voting record), a key Democrat on military issues, on Monday defended his call to pull U.S. troops from
Iraq, saying he was reflecting Americans’ sentiment.”
As an American I have to agree with him. We need to pull the troops out….As soon as the job is finished.
Even Hillary sees it would be a mistake…
“RYE BROOK, N.Y. – Sen.
Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that an immediate U.S. withdrawal from
Iraq would be ‘a big mistake.’The New York Democrat said she respects Rep. Jack Murtha, D-Pa., the Vietnam veteran and hawkish ex-Marine who last week called for an immediate troop pullout. But she added: ‘I think that would cause more problems for us in America.’”
There’s also some interesting commentary at Blogs for Bush on this. Go read it here.
