Leadership split
I don't have a dog in this hunt, but it's interesting to read that House Democrats from Arkansas are split on the leadership race between Steny Hoyer and John Murtha, mainly that Mike Ross and Marion Berry are split (Vic Snyder joins Ross) in a mild debate over which candidate is the moderate.

Ross is a moderate? He lost that label when he voted for W.'s torture bill. And he lost my support from here on out.

As valiant as John Murtha has been the last 2 years or so, I can't imagine denying him anything he has his heart set on.
As much as I'd like to see Nuremberg type trials for members of the Bush administration, our nation's first order of business must be to extricate our troops from the total birth abortion known as the Iraq War for Oil.
My advice....split Iraq into 3 new states based on religion and get the hell out of there. All our troops can do now is be targets in the middle of an Iraqi civil war. Let the Iraqi's kill themselves with none of our help.
Murtha's help with Job 1 is vitally important. Give him the tools he needs to rescue our troops now!

The mere fact that anyone could consider Murtha or Hoyer NOT moderate perfectly illustrates the decline of liberal politics in this country.
The Repukes might have lost, but liberalism certainly didn't win anything.
