RUSH: Good old Jack Murtha is back. ‘House Democrats\u2019 point man in the war-funding showdown with the White House Tuesday dismissed US military gains in Iraq and vowed to tighten the purse strings until President Bush accepts a pullout plan. ‘Look at all the people that have been displaced, all the [lost] oil production, unemployment, all those type of things,\u2019 said Rep. John P. Murtha… ‘We can\u2019t win militarily.” In the middle of winning militarily, Jack Murtha says we can\u2019t win militarily! He ‘conceded violence was down dramatically and some normalcy was restored on Iraq\u2019s streets, but he said US victory remains unattainable as long as Baghdad fails to pass national-reconciliation laws ‘To change the political law, it doesn\u2019t seem to me you need the military stability,\u2019 Mr. Murtha told reporters on Capitol Hill.\u2019<\/p>\n

So what he\u2019s saying is there\u2019s a corrupt government over there, and they won\u2019t pass conciliation laws so we can get along with each other. You don\u2019t need military stability to do that. So change the picture, change the focus. Whenever the news is good, find some area where you can make it sound like it\u2019s bad. This is the nature of today\u2019s Democrat Party: We can\u2019t win militarily. ‘In their latest tussle with the White House on the Iraq war, two leading House Democrats said Tuesday the Pentagon was using scare tactics to try to goad Congress into passing another war spending bill. And Reps. David Obey and John Murtha said they won\u2019t budge.\u2019 They both say ‘they won\u2019t support more money for the war this year unless President Bush accepts a timetable for troop withdrawals.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
