If you have just woken up from dreams of Fitzmas Future, you probably don't know that
Jean Schmidt, Republican from Ohio's 2nd District, essentially called Rep. Jack Murtha a coward for daring to suggest that our troops in Iraq are sitting ducks, and should be pulled back to the borders for their own safety.
Rep. Murtha is a 37 year veteran of the USMC, and received the Bronze Star and 2 Purple Hearts. He has done much for our troops in Iraq, paying special attention to the wounded. He has advised presidents of both parties and commands the respect of members on both sides of the aisle.
Mike DeWine (R-Ohio) is facing an uphill battle for re-election to the Senate in 2006, and I say we should help Jean Schmidt grease his slide. Jean Schmidt hasn't apologized for her smear of Murtha, and every day that goes by without a written, published apology, I'm going to send $10 to Paul Hackett's campaign against DeWine. And you should, too!
