Murtha complains of “swift-boat style attacks”
John Murtha, now engaged in a very public and very natural (for the Dems, anyway) fight over political power has complained that his opponents are using “swift-boat style attacks” against him.
What? They’re offering rational, supported arguments that Murtha’s not fit for the position? Because that’s the definition of anything purporting to use the term “swift boat” in its description. Pelosi isn’t even holding the gavel yet and she’s already stirring up a shitstorm in the House. This is her style and Murtha’s style is to bleat about unfairness while slandering our troops in the field. Pay close attention, folks. This is what we decided we wanted for the next 2 years. And lest anyone think that they’ll suddenly calm down after the next Congress convenes… well, don’t hold your breath. This is how they’ve always done business and it’s how they’ll continue.
