He is fighting. He keeps on fighting through main medias.
Today, he's talking about the fog of Baghdad on CBS-"Face the Nation."
I hear his hurt beating to get the things right.
Also his logics sounds easy to chew even for the hard-boiled Repubs, since the current Middle East quagmire is getting worse.
Listen Murtha.
Murtha: Only Iran, al-Qaida want U.S. in Iraq
Decorated former Marine says American presence 'depleting' resources
WASHINGTON | MARCH 5 -- The U.S. presence in Iraq is hurting the worldwide war on terrorism and benefits only Iran and al Qaeda, Rep. John Murtha said Sunday.
Murtha expressed skepticism of assurances given by Gen. Peter Pace, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday. Pace said the war in Iraq was going "very, very well."
"Why would I believe him?" said Murtha, D-Pa. "This administration, including the president, has mischaracterized this war for the last two years ... So why would I believe the chairman of the Joint Chiefs when he says things are going well?"
"The only people who want us in Iraq are Iran and al-Qaida," Murtha said on CBS's "Face the Nation" political talk show.
"And I talked to a top-level commander the other day and he said China wants us there also. Why? Because we're depleting our resources ... our troop resources and our fiscal resources.
"The war on terrorism is worldwide. In Iraq, it's a civil war," said Murtha.

"I'm convinced they know where they are, they know who they are," he said.
"But they won't tell us because they've turned against us. We've lost the hearts and minds of the people."
The United Nations is scrutinizing Iran because of its nuclear research but Murtha said Tehran has become emboldened because of the U.S. focus in Iraq.
"We have a situation where our military is in such bad shape, it couldn't deploy to a second front," Murtha said.
"And the Iranians know this. North Korea knows it. China knows it. We're depleting our resources in Iraq."

When I read this article right after posted on 3 p.m. EDT, it counts 45 people voted to rate, and it scored 4.5 average out of perfect 5. Now it's 7 p.m., counts 256 votes, and the score still 4.5. If we read that page, page-view counts higher and the possibility remains to keep the tag of Murtha's headline on the "Best viewed" list.
Please do that, and keep his voice on the main stream.
(Note: I have no concern with MSNBC's rates. I'm concerning the right voice should be out there as long as anybody can hear.)
