Virginia Democrat accused of disrespecting military service

Government Executive reports:

The Republican challenging Rep. Jim Moran in Virginia slammed the Democrat Wednesday morning, saying he implied that military service is not sufficient public service experience to run for office.

In an interview on Fox News's Fox and Friends, Patrick Murray agreed with his interviewer's assessment that Moran's remarks were insulting, saying that for Moran, "military service is not public service and we're just earning a paycheck."

Does Jim Moran serve the public interest or his campaign contributors whims?
