Murtha Introduces Resolution Asking for Rumsfeld's Resignation
Today I introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives calling for the immediate resignation of Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.
The President must show the American people and the world that there is accountability for the mistakes that have made in the war in Iraq. We must restore our credibility with our allies and the world in order to effectively fight the global threat of terrorism.
Secretary Rumsfeld has failed in managing the military response to this threat and should be replaced with someone who is capable of not only recognizing the mistakes that have been made but addressing them head on for the good of our military and our great nation.
If one should be called upon by Congress to resign for mistakes made, all of our government -- including our Congress -- would be a giant echo chamber.
I can't wait to see how far this resolution goes and who will hitch their wagon to this illustrious star.
(Like the announcement on HuffPo?)
Heard about this on Rush Limbaugh's show today
Murtha: You're fired! Rummy: In your dreams, bozo!

All over the country, everytime Murtha speaks, countless retired and active Marines no doubt slap their foreheads, saying - "I wish he would just shut up!".

Rummy: I'll resign when you finally take a crap.
Murtha: Dang it, stymied again.
