According to the article, he died Wednesday morning. It's Breaking News on Monday afternoon.

Were the Dems hoping to get more votes out of Murtha? I suppose if dead Democrats can elect representatives, dead representatives can vote on legislation.

Benedict Arnold also served this country.

For now, I will say rest in peace and condolences to his family.

It would appear that "Wednesday" was a misprint.
The article has been edited to now say: "died Monday afternoon at Virginia Hospital Center".

he was the first worthless marine I know of....

totally, completely, irrevocably worthless,

and that is from a person who does not believe in speaking ill of the dead....

unless you are talking teddy kennedy and john murtha.

he volunteered for service in the Vietnam War, serving from 1966 to 1967, served as a battalion staff officer (S-2 Intelligence Section), received the Bronze Star with Valor device, two Purple Hearts and the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry.

And you spit on his grave because his politics didn't mirror yours - welcome to 21st century America

NO I spit on him because he tried to ruin 8 good marines reputations, their families, without care about the truth. 7 have been found NOT GUILTY. Plus, he painted people who didn't think like him as racists and bigots, Only to benefit his political power. Understand?

But why would I expect you to understand honor and duty?  :hysterical:
