Uh, the previous having been said, back on topic.
CNS's sources for the story are all people Murtha has defeated in elections. Wow. That's about as sleazy as it gets.
You know, I think the GOP actually has it right. Military service is a BAD thing. it hurt Kerry, it was used to smear Gore, it's being used to smear Murtha, it was used to smear McCain - one of their own.
On the other hand, Dan Quayle, Bill Clinton, and GWB all were elected to office.
The real message here? Don't serve. It won't do you any good, and if you do it out of love for your country, it will be turned into something to be used against you.
