thinkprogress.org — This morning on Fox News, Fox anchor Brit Hume said "It's time a few things be said about Murtha. ... This guy is long past the day when he had anything but the foggiest awareness of what the heck is going on in the world."

The "support the troops" crowd sure is fickle, aren't they? In 2000, Bush's campaign smeared McCain for allegedly being traumatized by his POW experience (!!), then John Kerry wasn't injured enough for their liking, and now this. Even McCain, himself a victim of it, is trashing veterans now. It seems that if you stop waving the flag just the way they like it they decide you're not worthy of their support anymore.But that's it, isn't it? That's why they can't comprehend supporting the troops and not the war. "The troops" to them is an institution, not a collection of individual human beings.

Fox News and conservatives have nothing but ad homonym attacks to bring to the table. Well done.

Murtha is a fraud. To date, he has three versions of his war injuries and has admitted he really didn't "earn the Purple Heart." Add that to his ABSCAM unindicated co-conspirator record and you have a Class A-1 jerk. But the liberal left love him. Why wouldn't they? Jerks, liars, and theives are par for the liberal course.Source: <a class="user" href="http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewSpecialReports.asp?Page=%5CSpecialReports%5Carchive%5C200601%5CSPE20060113a.html">http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewSpecialReports.asp?Page=%5CSpecialReports%5Carchive%5C200601%5CSPE20060113a.html</a>

IF Olby does this to a conservative, he is really giving it to them hehe haha good.. What do I mean IF. Olby does this everyday. And liberals love him for it. But if the tables are turned, it is a smear and the network is evil. The ends justify the means ehh.
