Murtha should give up title
Congressman Jack Murtha, a retired Marine colonel, should give up his title, Marine.
It actually pains me to say this, because there is a side of me who sees Murtha as someting of a "fatherly" or "grandfatherly" figure: It would be much easier for me, at 47, if he were in his 30's, 40's, even 50's.
But no matter his age or service, I could not deny the truth or not say what is right.
Anyway, see why I say so here at Townhall.com.
Also, check out the story of America's little-known Special Boat sailors at NavySEALs.com.
