In this, however, Murtha was the Grand "Poo"-bah. <br /><br />I won't assume, however, that all of his actions and decisions throughout his life were cynical and self-serving. Nor do I know the pressures and temptations he faced. <br /><br />We may all like to think we would stay true to our principles in the face of evil, but persecution is easier to withstand than seduction. The Bible says we are all lead astray by our own desires. It also says that there is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is destruction. Perhaps it's best to view Rep. Murtha's life as an example and a warning for ourselves and heed the words of Micah 6:8 - "you know, oh man, what is good and what is required of you; to love mercy, act justly and walk <i>humbly</i> with your God."

Now that he's dead, no one will use it. It's not our jobs to judge his soul, but I have to say, I'm with Gino on this one.
