MILLERSVILLE, Penn. (Reuters) - U.S. Rep. John Murtha, a leading congressional opponent of the war in Iraq, on Tuesday endorsed Hillary Clinton's presidential bid, saying her position on the war made her the best candidate to take over the White House.

Murtha, a Democrat from Pennsylvania, which holds a crucial presidential nominating contest next month, said Clinton, a New York senator and former first lady, was best placed to deal with the issues surrounding the war and the economy.

"Senator Clinton is the candidate that will forge a consensus on health care, education, the economy and the war in Iraq," he said in a statement.

He cited a speech Clinton gave on Monday in which she said withdrawing U.S. forces from Iraq did not mean defeat.

Isnt this the same guy who slid out of getting caught in ABSCAM?  There are rumors that say he was tipped off, when he said he would turn down the bribe, and why didn't he report it to the committe, maybe he wouldn't rat out his fellow cronies.....and also the big questions about his purple hearts, wounds or scratches?.Endorsed by code pink, bad mouthed the troops, then said "thats not what I mean"...hmmm just like Kerry..."If you work hard you can educate yourselves and become smarter, or you can wind up in iraq" (or something like that)......If just a quarter of the fluff about him is true, he is a poor excuse for a Marine....and a typical politician....great people your keeping company with hitlery
