Hume: Murtha Is Senile, Doesn’t Have ‘The Foggiest Awareness’ Of What’s Going On In The World»

This morning on Fox News, Brit Hume launched a scathing diatribe against Rep. John Murtha’s (D-PA) character. “It’s time a few things be said about him,” Hume said. “This guy is long past the day when he had anything but the foggiest awareness of what the heck is going on in the world.” Hume called Murtha an “absolute fountain” of “naivete.” Watch it:

Murtha has long been the subject of smear attacks from the right. When he first came out in support of redeployment from Iraq in late 2005, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said Murtha had “never been a big thinker,” and that he had “become too emotional” because he “goes to funerals.” The White House said it was “baffling that he is endorsing the policy positions of Michael Moore and the extreme liberal wing.”

Digg It!

Transcript:

HUME: That sound bite from John Murtha suggests that it’s time a few things be said about him. Even the “Washington Post” noted he didn’t seem particularly well informed about what’s going on over there, to say the least. Look, this man has tremendous cache among House Democrats, but he is not — this guy is long past the day when he had anything but the foggiest awareness of what the heck is going on in the world.

And that sound bite is naivete writ large, and the man is an absolute fountain of such talk, and the fact that he has ascended to the position he has in the eyes of the Democrats in the House and perhaps Democrats around the country tells you a lot about how much they know or care about what’s really going on over there.

WILLIAMS: He’s chairman of the subcommittee, House Appropriations. He’ll have a lot to say about what Mara was just discussing –

HUME: A lot of it will be —

WILLIAMS: We’re in a democratic process. Not everybody is as smart as you are. He’s going to have a voice and a vote and I think lots of people identify with what he’s saying, which is let’s look at different alternatives rather than engage in what is a war that is just taking us down, down, down.

    Yeah, like Brit has a clue as to what’s going on over there. What an ass. How many times has Brit visited Iraq? None.

    This story about the Empire State shooting by a Palestinian in 1997 is just coming out today.

    I wonder how many Americans have to be killed at home before the Regressives’ god of political correctness is appeased.

    regarding

    http://www.nydailynews.com/ front/ story/ 498674p-420269c.html

    Relatives of killer: 1997 Empire State shooting was revenge for U.S. support for Israel Ten years ago a Palestinian Arab shot seven people, killing one, at the Empire State Building. After insisting it wasn’t a political attack for ten years, now his family admits that it was indeed an attack in service of the jihad against Israel.
    With all the talk these days about how terrible it is for some people to question whether or not the killer’s Islamic religion had anything to do with the Salt Lake City mall murders, this is an especially intriguing story.

    “Killer’s daughter admits it was political,” by Mahmoud Habboush in the New York Daily News, with thanks to MJN:

    GAZA CITY - Ali Abu Kamal’s relatives say they are tired of lying about why the Palestinian opened fire on the observation deck of Empire State Building, killing a tourist and injuring six other people before committing suicide.
    Kamal’s widow insisted after the shooting spree that the attack was not politically motivated. She said that her husband had become suicidal after losing $300,000 in a business venture.

    But in a stunning admission, Kamal’s 48-year-old daughter Linda told the Daily News that her dad wanted to punish the U.S. for supporting Israel - and revealed her mom’s 1997 account was a cover story crafted by the Palestinian Authority.

    “A Palestinian Authority official advised us to say the attack was not for political reasons because that would harm the peace agreement with Israel,”
    she told The News on Friday. “We didn’t know that he was martyred for patriotic motivations, so we repeated what we were told to do.”

    But three days after the shootings, Kamal’s family got a copy of a letter that was found on his body, they said. The letter said he planned the violence as a political statement, his daughter said.

    “When we wanted to clarify that to the media, nobody listened to us,” she said. “His goal was patriotic. He wanted to take revenge from the Americans, the British, the French and the Israelis.”

    She said the family became certain that he carried out the attack for political reasons after reading his diary.

    “He wrote that after he raised his children and made sure that his family was all right he decided to avenge in the highest building in America to make sure they get his message,” said Linda, who works for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees….

    Yeah, to them, anyone who has so much as a passing relationship with reality is an extreme liberal.


  6. jeff Says:

    That’s right. This is why Democrats should not be guesting on FOX. It’s actually amazing that they do.


  7. firehead Says:

    Murtha just got owned. Brit is the man.


  8. steve_e Says:

    “It’s time a few things be said about him,”

    Finally, a proud fascist American is going to impugn Murtha’s integrity for the first time ever.

    Folks, propagandists live for this kind of shit. They will never stop. They enjoy lying and manipulating people. That is their only job. They do not believe in truth.


  9. wake-n-bake Says:

    And you Mr. Hume have a girly name, Brit. Isn’t the E! network or LOGO in need of more of your type?

    So, why don’t you comment on the color of Mr. Murtha’s tie or hairstyle, or something you’re more adept at discussing…


  10. EasyRider Says:

    Soon we have picture dictionary right-wing retards it will show two pictures for the definition of retarded:

  14. Smack Says:

    Who watches that fool anymore? 50% of the viewers of Fox are liberal bloggers, waiting to report more of the endless spew of stupidity, flowing unceasingly from that vacuous propaganda factory.

    Hume has zero credibility as a journalist. Who worth noting gives a rats ass what he says?

    Not me.


  15. Briseadh na Faire Says:

    Hume called Murtha an “absolute fountain” of “naivete.”

    And, by extension, anyone who opposes Bush’s “surge” is just naive.

    In the history books, a mere 3 dozen Senators stood up to the rest of the nation and voted to prevent a debate on a non-binding resolution to oppose the President in a time of war. They wanted a vote on funding.

    I suggest the House give them what they want, and pass a bill providing funding only for withdrawing troops from Iraq. Then let the Republicans continue to mouth “support the troops” while filibustering funding for the troops.

    Comment by Vince P

    So does this mean you are giving us permission to drop bombs on the houses of right wingers because of abortion clinic bombers?


  21. Vince P Says:

    Mark Steyn has this to say about Murtha and Democrats. I agree 100%. The Democrats act as if their party is the country.. all must be done in service of the Party. Meanwhile the rest of the world sees this as America’s war and America will be damaged by the Democratic Agenda of Defeat:

    “The Murtha plan, based on existing military guidelines, includes a stipulation that Army troops who have already served in Iraq must be granted two years at home before an additional deployment. . . . The idea is to slowly choke off the war by stopping the deployment of troops from units that have been badly degraded by four years of combat.”

    So “the Murtha plan” is to deny the president the possibility of victory while making sure Democrats don’t have to share the blame for the defeat. But of course he’s a great American! He’s a patriot! He supports the troops! He doesn’t support them in the mission, but he’d like them to continue failing at it for a couple more years. As John Kerry wondered during Vietnam, how do you ask a soldier to be the last man to die for a mistake? By nominally “fully funding” a war you don’t believe in but “limiting his ability to use the money.” Or as the endearingly honest anti-war group MoveCongress.org put it, in an e-mail preview of an exclusive interview with the wise old Murtha:

    “Chairman Murtha will describe his strategy for not only limiting the deployment of troops to Iraq but undermining other aspects of the president’s foreign and national security policy.”

    “Undermining”? Why not? To the Slow-Bleed Democrats, it’s the Republicans’ war. To an increasing number of what my radio pal Hugh Hewitt calls the White-Flag Republicans, it’s Bush’s war. To everyone else on the planet, it’s America’s war. And it will be America’s defeat.

    Comment by Shoelimpyâ

    Then please explain EXACTLY the reality of what will happen to AMERICA if we leave… the predictions about the commi Vietnamese taking over the world if we leave never happened and it was stupid saying it back then just as much as it is stupid saying it about the Iraqis now.

    Last I checked if we pull out of Iraq we dont have to give up our military so if we need them for something else they will be MORE available not less because they are boged down in Iraq.

  30. Briseadh na Faire Says:

    And what does Michael Moore have to say about Bush’s “surge”?

    Wednesday, January 10th, 2007
    Dear Mr. President: Send Even MORE Troops (and you go, too!) …from Michael Moore

    Dear Mr. President,

    Thanks for your address to the nation. It’s good to know you still want to talk to us after how we behaved in November.

    Listen, can I be frank? Sending in 20,000 more troops just ain’t gonna do the job. That will only bring the troop level back up to what it was last year. And we were losing the war last year! We’ve already had over a million troops serve some time in Iraq since 2003. Another few thousand is simply not enough to find those weapons of mass destruction! Er, I mean… bringing those responsible for 9/11 to justice! Um, scratch that. Try this — BRING DEMOCRACY TO THE MIDDLE EAST! YES!!!

    You’ve got to show some courage, dude! You’ve got to win this one! C’mon, you got Saddam! You hung ‘im high! I loved watching the video of that — just like the old wild west! The bad guy wore black! The hangmen were as crazy as the hangee! Lynch mobs rule!!!

    Look, I have to admit I feel very sorry for the predicament you’re in. As Ricky Bobby said, “If you’re not first, you’re last.” And you being humiliated in front of the whole world does NONE of us Americans any good.

    Sir, listen to me. You have to send in MILLIONS of troops to Iraq, not thousands! The only way to lick this thing now is to flood Iraq with millions of us! I know that you’re out of combat-ready soldiers — so you have to look elsewhere! The only way you are going to beat a nation of 27 million — Iraq — is to send in at least 28 million! Here’s how it would work:

    The first 27 million Americans go in and kill one Iraqi each. That will quickly take care of any insurgency. The other one million of us will stay and rebuild the country. Simple.

    Now, I know you’re saying, where will I find 28 million Americans to go to Iraq? Here are some suggestions:

    1. More than 62,000,000 Americans voted for you in the last election (the one that took place a year and half into a war we already knew we were losing). I am confident that at least a third of them would want to put their body where their vote was and sign up to volunteer. I know many of these people and, while we may disagree politically, I know that they don’t believe someone else should have to go and fight their fight for them — while they hide here in America.

    2. Start a “Kill an Iraqi” Meet-Up group in cities across the country. I know this idea is so early-21st century, but I once went to a Lou Dobbs Meet-Up and, I swear, some of the best ideas happen after the third mojito. I’m sure you’ll get another five million or so enlistees from this effort.

    3. Send over all members of the mainstream media. After all, they were your collaborators in bringing us this war — and many of them are already trained from having been “embedded!” If that doesn’t bring the total to 28 million, then draft all viewers of the FOX News channel.

    Mr. Bush, do not give up! Now is not the time to pull your punch! Don’t be a weenie by sending in a few over-tired troops. Get your people behind you and YOU lead them in like a true commander in chief! Leave no conservative behind! Full speed ahead!

    We promise to write. Go get ‘em W!

    Yours,

    Michael Moore

  31. Smack Says:

    #20 - Are you for real?

    Liberalism or Conservatism are absolutely meaningless. The only useful scale for measuring Government is whether it gives it’s citizens Liberty or Tyranny.

    Are we more free than before 911 or has the government usurped that liberty and replaced it with restrictions on our lives? I think the answer is self-evident. You think nothing of surrendering your liberty for the illusion of safety but, I implore you to look at history and see, that it has never been for the benefit of the People. It only benefits Tyrannical governments.

    Don’t believe what I say. Read History and learn the facts.


  32. margaret Says:

    Good idea BnF - give them all the funding they need as long as it’s part of getting out of Iraq. Might make it harder for anyone prone to believing the lies on Fox to twist it into not supporting the troops.

    If we go with the Faux logic, that leaving makes things more dangerous (so we can’t leave), then are they saying that we can NEVER leave?

    Because even Bush said that there’s never going to be NO car bombings - so how many car bombings is okay and still allow us to leave? With their logic we’ll be there forever!!

  41. Uosdwis Says:

    Seriously, does any of this rise to the level of slander, defamation of character? Isn’t Hume actually saying Murtha is mentally incompetent to do his job? Hmm, maybe there’s some other people we could give a psychological evaluation to.. On the other hand, can a sitting Congressman sue Fox for that?

    But if you really want to make this accusation, you need look no further than Strom ‘the pecker knows no bigotry’ Thurmond. He LITERALLY had to have people tell him what to say, for chrissakes. And he was Trent Lott’s hero…

    Exactly. The War Profiteers will continue to thrive, however. Their profits are measured in the Billions, while their losses are measured in other people’s kid’s lives. In other words, to a War Profiteer, there is no down-side to unending War. Unending War means Unending Profits. But Peace? Peace would put them out of business. As Bush said, “Profit trumps peace.”

    The democrats did not vote for this war. They voted for military action IF…. read the IFs… it was not for whatever Bush wanted. He violated the 2002 authorization.

    Comment by Shoelimpy™

    Troll alert! So tell us what the reality is. Is it the ‘islamofascist’ (projection to end all projection) forming a caliphate to take over the world? Hamas, Hezbollah, Quds Force, al-Qaeda, Sunni, Shia, they’re all the same right? Exactly that kind of ignorance that got us into the mess we’re in over there! Put down the Kool-Aid and step away from the cup.

    Even if Murtha IS senile and stupid, he’s got a far better awareness of reality than Brit or Tony Snow or those fascists who are turning the republic into a dictatorship.

    You have to be a liar to be ‘Conservative’ because the label doesn’t fit the true definition. They have to lie to themselves everyday. Just like everything else the Neo-Cons touch, the true meaning of Conservatism has been corrupted to mean the exact opposite.

    Good luck pointing out the obvious to these poor, self-deluded fools.


  72. Vince P Says:

    Speaking of the UK, they are deciding very shortly whether or not they’re going to keep a Navy of any significance. If they decide not, say good bye to the British fleet.

    So between the Labor party demilitarization of the UK and the Democratic party push to have us leave Iraq, the West is basically abandoning the world for the Jihadis to conquer.

    Don’t you understand the significance of this? An Islamic Dark Age awaits the future and you folks are part and parcel of it taking shape. Islam conquered the world from Spain to India in 100 years after Mohemmed died. The moral conviction of a Jihadi is a military threat not to be underestimated. All those nations/cultures who underestimated it in the past are no longer in the world today

    The press no longer has any protection, and there is no motivation for being impartial. There are only a handful of journalists left who care more about the truth than the continuity of their paycheck, and they live in a day when news is judged by volume, not content. The ‘free press’ is dead.

    And with it, collective democracy.

    Nothing has changed, but realize that the dream is over.


  77. AshenShard Says:

    I don’t get it. How do conservatives deal when they are playing a board game like monopoly or risk and lose? do they pout and claim that it isn’t over, they can still win, even though they have no holdings left on the board?
    I say this because they do not seem to realize that with the way things are going in Iraq, we have already lost. They think that just with this surge, this last push, that we will win.
    We cannot win with a volunteer army. Just not possible in a situation that requires the occupation of the territory the size of Iraq. The fighting in Iraq is a war of attrition. As long as our troops are there, our military becomes weaker and weaker as readiness declines, and the bar is lowered in order to fulfill recruitment quotas. Meanwhile, our troops being there energizes the insurgents, gives them a recruiting tool. They are fighting a guerrilla war, so they do not need the manpower nor the weapons that our standing army requires to be successful. They also have the support of the people (in many cases they are the people), and they know the land.

    Going into a war without the knowledge nor required equipment and with a mentality that you will win, no matter what, is not a winning solution. Tactically we have failed in Iraq. To not lose the so called war on terror, one must make the sound strategic decision and admit that Iraq is not going to get any better by us staying there. If the trolls need a bone, then we can call it a victory and get out.

    We cannot win any battle, never mind a war, if we let our army deteriorate as this administration and the republicans have allowed. Murtha’s plan has the interest of winning the war and giving our troops the rest, support and equipment they need.

    If we were going to win in Iraq, then we need a draft. I doubt that is going to happen. I would suggest that everyone here who supports the war sign up and suit up, but I do not think that is the kind of help the troops would appreciate at this point.

  84. Exley Says:

    ThinkProgress,

    The “headline” of this thread is blatantly dishonest. No where in the clipor transcript does Hume say that Murtha is “senile” or even use the word “senile.” Hume says Murth has not the “awareness of what the heck is going on in the world.” That is hardly synonymous with saying that Murtha is suffering from the senility (which, by the way, TP is a fairly antiquated term).

    Not only does Hume never use the word “senile,” the next sentence shows that Hume is saying that Murtha’s lack of awareness of what is going on in the world stems from “naivete,” not senility.

    We, of course, realize that ThinkProgress is not a pure news provider and is not subject to recognized journalistic standards of objectivity. As a partisan site, TP is certainly entitled to editoralize and characterize. But the headline of rhis thread goes way beyond editorializing. It is simply, 100% dishonest.

    They are stupid. They are not only nuts, they are stupid. They know they are stupid. They resent the rest of the world for being brighter then them.

    Think about it, how in the light of the K Street scandal, probably the best organised bribery ring in the history of influence peddling, can someone still try to claim that Republicans are honest? Stupidity, that’s how.

    How can someone claim that Iraq is a big mess, that it was a mistake to go in in the first place, and then go on about how it is irresponsible to say so? Stupidity, that’s how.

    How can someone, in view of the country being in two wars, neither of which looks good at the moment, claim that invading a third country would be a good idea? Stupidity, that’s how.

    How can someone claim to support the troops, and then support cutting funding to veterans, and sending troops into a warzone without adequate armour? Stupidity, that’s how.

    How can someone in one breath claim to be in favour of fiscal responsibility and then in the next oppose getting rid of America’s biggest optional expense in the next? Stupidity, that’s how.

    And why is it, that the rightwing is so downright unpleasant, even when things go well for them? Because they resent the fact that other people aren’t stupid. That’s how.


  98. AshenShard Says:

    There is no reason to crap ones pants over a foreign culture or religion. Being afraid of conquest by something one doesn’t understand only exposes ones own insecurities and detachment from reality. Throughout history those with comfort also piss themselves thinking they are gonna be overrun by the unwashed masses who they take blatant economic advantage of. They use the ‘primitive’ beliefs of those people to belittle and bedevil them. All of a sudden, the poor man who works to subsist and is just asking for a little more becomes a great threat, and all of a sudden we find out they are Irish Catholics, the lazy farmers who allowed their harvest to rot and then came over here to overthrow our democracy with Popery.
    Is it in any way surprising that these same people now demonize Mexican immigrants and Muslims? It is only by sheer circumstance that a large amount of Muslims inhabit regions in which we rape them of their wealth of natural resources. This is why they are pissed off and united in an anti-western ideal. If you want to quell the rise of fundamentalist Islam, you cannot fight it, you can not beat it into submission. To win our society must halt its rape of their lands, of their resources, and create a balanced, symbiotic relationship in which all our peoples can prosper.

Reality is fleeting for you.

    You dont start wars over the actions of a few people. If that is how it worked we would be at war with China right now for dicking with our airforce after bush got in office. Hell we would be in constant war 100% of the time because small groups of individuals will eventually succeed.

    The dogma of any mass religion is similar, and my point which you seem to have totally missed or ignored, is that there are a minority of christians who spout off in the same way as a minority of muslims do, and they just because they are violent or bigots does not make the entire religion a faith of violence or bigotry. Just because some Muslims spout off, doesn’t mean every Muslim does. Just as because you seem to be pissing your pants over these threats, doesn’t mean every westerner does.

    Just because the Koran says it doesn’t mean it is followed or believed. Look at the bible. If half the things in it were followed, how low would our population be from stoning?

    The condition of the world today is not due to Jihadists but to the stupid republicans in this country and people who piss themselves every time they see a shadow. Rather than being gullible and blaming problems on the religion that happens to be followed by a lot of poor people in the world, we should look at the real problem and the question to this problem is: why are there such a concentration of poverty? And its not the fault of Islam, its the fault of US corporations who put profit over life, and our consumer interests which demand cheap goods, and rape the wealth of these regions to acquire them. Take away poverty, and you take away the appeal of radical islam, not to mention radical christianity and any other religion which becomes radicalized when a mass of people can barely make subsistence.


  131. Vince P Says:

    It’s preachers like those who are militarizing muslims in the UK and they preach from the authority of the Koran.

    It’s amazing the amount of patronizing the Left does toward theses people.

    Why are the faces of the “believers” in this video blurred out?

    Um, its an undercover investigation that could result in peope’s deaths. Plus I think there are laws about not showing people without authorization but that might be just France.

    Wouldn’t it be great to know who’s spending time in this mosque? Wouldn’t it be nice to know who’s accepting funding from Saudi Arabia? Too bad our Saudi allies are really our enemy… and they’re already well inside the American “tent.”

    I examined Islam years ago after 911. I have already seen what the religious nut muslims in britian say. It is exactly the same crap the christian religious nuts say… which is my point. The christians have their group of crazies just like the muslims. The christians have been going on about it long before 911. Oklahoma City, abortion bombers, warriors for Jesus, saying America is turning against their god so it will be destroyed like sodom if it does not do what the religious right wants… change of subject? Hardly… just another example to show you not to take the religious crazies so seriously. Keep an eye on them for sure because they occasionally pull a Jim Jones…. or 911…. but acting like they are about to invade is just plain chicken shit.

    Bruce was dead on about you.

    I was pointing out that Pat Robertson is in favor of assassinating the leaders of other countries, which shows him that the crazy Muslim extremists are no different from the crazy Christian extremists and he thinks I’m suggesting that Muslims watch Pat Roberston. LOL

    Keep dodging the fact that I proved you wrong and you cannot admit it.

    This just proves what hypocrites conservatives are. They constantly demand the 10 Commandments be posted everywhere, yet never miss an opportunity to bear false witness against their neighbor.

    margaret: There are moderate Muslims but there is no moderate Islam. That’s the crux of the problem.

    Comment by Vince P

    Where was the moderate christianity when it was burning innocent women alive calling them witches? Where were the christians at when these women were screaming for mercy?

    He without sin cast the first stone…. everyone else work on changing people to turn the other cheek.

    Gerald Gibson insists on conflating things that are not comparable.

    Here you go Vince, Pat Roberston blames YOU for, well, everything:

    “If the widespread practice of homosexuality will bring about the destruction of your nation, if it will bring about terrorist bombs, if it’ll bring about earthquakes, tornadoes and possibly a meteor, it isn’t necessarily something we ought to open our arms to.”

    – Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television program, August 6, 1998, on the occasion of the Orlando, Florida, Gay Pride Festival 199

    Are there some scholars here in the house? What is the word that describes when FoxNews reports as “fact” what they simply have only “heard” or “contrived” a rumor to be reported as such?

    I know there is a fancier word than “projection”

    Can anyone help?

    I know exactly what I am talking about, and so do most of the others here. We present evidence, examples and logic, which you ignore as irrelevant because it does not fit in with what you want to believe.
