oops, its Murtha, not Martha:
WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania, Ranking Member on the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, decorated Vietnam veteran, and expert on military issues, spoke at a news conference this morning calling for immediate redeployment of U.S. forces from Iraq.Of course, little Scottie (his highness' press secretary) was immediately into the breach:
Congressman Murtha is a respected veteran and politician who has a record of supporting a strong America. So it is baffling that he is endorsing the policy positions of Michael Moore and the extreme liberal wing of the Democratic party. The eve of an historic democratic election in Iraq is not the time to surrender to the terrorists. After seeing his statement, we remain baffled -- nowhere does he explain how retreating from Iraq makes America safer.
And, no, Murtha did not ride out on Swift Boats, so get over it.

They've twisted Murtha's good ammendment into something politically difficult to vote on, and it's on the floor right now. See Kos.
Its all politics.
