A Marine from Washington County today plans to sue U.S. Rep. John Murtha for publicly claiming his unit slaughtered innocent Iraqi civilians, according to the man's attorney.

A lawyer for Lance Cpl. Justin Sharratt, 24, of Canonsburg on Wednesday announced plans to sue Murtha, D-Johnstown, for comments he made to news outlets concerning the November 2005 killing of about two dozen people in Haditha.

Murtha repeatedly said Sharratt and seven fellow Marines "committed cold-blooded murder of innocent women and children," according to lawyer Noah Geary, who scheduled a news conference for 1:30 p.m. today to announce the lawsuit.

Not a bad thing to remind PA folks - it ain’t just BO that thinks they are lesser-than.

Murtha deserves to be sued. Here's a link to a Justin Sharratt legal fund and an explanation by his attorney.

Does Murtha have any serious competition from a Republican this year?

I take that as an affirmative on the serious competition for Murtha question.

Many thanks, MZ. Murtha needs to be held accountable for his actions.
