Marine Corp had nothing to do with the current state of Murtha's character. However... the point is made over and over that he '... was a Marine.' or '... is a Marine' by the media. My conviction is that to the un-knowing this is tantamount to setting the exact thought that you (and I) agree is not true... therefore any efforts to dis-associate him from the Corps is valid. (As I mentioned above, I am not a Marine...) John V. Snake Eater,

Agree with your basic premise. Marine Corp had nothing to do with the current state of Murtha’s character. However… the point is made over and over that he ‘… was a Marine.’ or ‘… is a Marine’ by the media. My conviction is that to the un-knowing this is tantamount to setting the exact thought that you (and I) agree is not true… therefore any efforts to dis-associate him from the Corps is valid.

I truly admire your esprit de' Corps and glorious history and fully understand that this is primarly a Naval/Marine centric blog... so I expect to get hammered on this... but as an outsider and a sometime astute observer of the passing scene... I would suggest that you all cease the gnashing of teeth and heavy breathing and get over this John Murtha-apostate Marine thing... the Corps is a proud military organization... not a cult...there were/are bad apples in the Corps as there are in all organizations. Yes John Murtha is a walled-eyed pecker-head... a bum...you name it they all fit...likely always was...and yes, horrors of horrors... he is/was a Marine...but he was first and remains a man, however deeply flawed...and the Corps, in my opninion, had absolutly nothing to do with that.

On this website would be found a database. The database would contain: A. Names of disgraced EX-Marines B. Their last known location. C. Their offense which removed US Marine from their resume. No--I wasn't a Marine or in the Military. But it would be nice to have these A-holes like Murtha from being able to say" I was a Marine". My opinion is that the Corps should set up a website.
