Murtha rips administration 'dishonesty'
U.S. Rep. John P. Murtha Wednesday accused President Bush of being dishonest with the American people by equating the war in Iraq with the nation's response to 9/11 as part of the war on terror.
Murtha was careful not to directly accuse Bush of lying about the war, but criticized the "dishonesty of the administration" for lumping together the two events.
"They're mischaracterizing the facts," the Johnstown Democrat said at a news conference in Johnstown. "They do it very shrewdly. They say '9/11.' Then they say 'Iraq.' They're giving people the impression in Iraq we're fighting terrorism."
Murtha said sending troops to Afghanistan was a direct result of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. But the war in Iraq was based on faulty intelligence and U.S. troops are battling an insurgency, not terrorism, he said.
