How Do You Tell The Truly Evil From The Merely Stupid?

September 19, 2007

Here's how: Congressman Murtha is trying to pre-emptively disclaim the blame for the chaos and genocide even he knows will be the inevitable result of pulling out of Iraq.

If pulling U.S. troops out of Iraq results in "a bloodbath," the guilt will rest with the Iraqi people and not with the U.S. Congress, according to Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.), a leading proponent of withdrawing troops.

There you go. It won't happen at all unless he gets his way. But he's still bucking hard for it. And just in case he does, it's someone else's fault. In advance. Most people would take that state of affairs as proof that there has to be a better way, but not the man from Pennsylvania.

It just doesn't get any clearer than that.
