The ASSociated Press has Murtha Says Americans Back Iraq Pullout

U.S. Rep. John Murtha, a key Democrat on military issues, on Monday defended his call to pull U.S. troops from Iraq, saying he was reflecting Americans’ sentiment.

“The public turned against this war before I said it,” Murtha said. “The public is emotionally tied into finding a solution to this thing, and that’s what I hope this administration is going to find out.”

Well, the House of Representatives voted 403-3 against a resolution for immediate withdrawl and Hillary Clinton announced today that an immediate withdrawl of troops would be a mistake.

Congressman Murtha, a longtime critic of the Iraq War is WRONG.
