On Hannity & Colmes, Gingrich suggested Murtha is "bashing America, and bashing the military" for political gain, Gallagher wondered if Murtha is "just plain crazy"

SUMMARY: Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich asserted that "the most logical explanation" for Rep. John P. Murtha's (D-PA) criticism of the administration's handling of the Iraq war is that Murtha thinks "bashing America, and bashing the military, and repudiating everything I've stood for my whole life" will help him achieve greater political power. Gingrich's assessment of Murtha's motivation came in response to guest co-host Mike Gallagher, who asked, "Is [Murtha] having some kind of mental meltdown? Is he crazy like a fox or just plain crazy?"
