Wrong Message?

No, exactly the right message. If Mr.Murtha is such respected leader, how can he be giving an incorrect message? Respected people, earn respect, it's not given to them willy-nilly.

"'When a respected leader like Mr. Murtha, who has spent 37 extremely honorable years as a Marine, fought in two wars, has served the country extremely well in the Congress of the United States, when a respected individual like that says what he said, and 18- and 19-year-olds look to their leadership to determine how they are expected to act, they can get the wrong message.'"
