I'm not talking about his bid for Majority Leader. Perhaps you've forgotten a few months ago, how after Murtha spoke about withdrawing troops from Iraq the Republicans proposed the Cut And Run Resolution, which they nicknamed "The Murtha Proposal", so they could vote it down and mock the only sensible voice congress had to offer about the war. How the Republicans behaved was nothing short of shameful, calling a veteran and a staunch supporter of our troops "anti-american" and "a traitor"--when, knowing what we now know, he was absolutely right all along.
