WASHINGTON (AP) -- The chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee on Friday accused Democratic Rep. John Murtha of turning his anti-war stance into a fundraising ploy.
The statement from Rep. Tom Reynolds, R-N.Y., came hours after Murtha sent an e-mail to Democratic supporters asking for donations to the party.
"I am saddened to see my friend from Pennsylvania, John Murtha, turn his widely respected positions on the war in Iraq into a fundraising ploy for House Democrats," Reynolds said in a statement.

The e-mail from Murtha was distributed by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee - the Democratic counterpart to the NRCC.
"While this issue of war is neither a Democratic nor a Republican one, this need for new leadership in the House is clearly a party issue," Murtha said in the e-mail, which contained links to donate money. :wow: /major sarcasm
A spokesman for Murtha did not immediately respond Friday afternoon to a request for comment.
