MONONGAHELA, August 2) -- Washington County Commissioner and Pennsylvania 12th district Republican Congressional nominee Diana Irey -- responding to Jack Murtha's statement today that "I don't blame the staff sergeant for lashing out," in response to a law suit filed against Murtha by Staff Sergeant Frank Wuterich, claiming defamation -- today released the following statement:
"'I don't blame the staff sergeant for lashing out.'
"That's what Jack Murtha had to say today, responding to news that Staff Sergeant Frank Wuterich has sued Murtha for defamation of character and libel.
"'Lashing out?' Filing a lawsuit for libel and defamation is not 'lashing out' -- it is using the legal system to protect one's good name.
"Leave it to Jack Murtha to libel a soldier and then call it 'lashing out' when the soldier responds in the appropriate manner.
"Jack Murtha was wrong when he said Frank Wuterich and the Marines under his command 'killed innocent civilians in cold blood' before the first Marine was charged, before the first court-martial was convened, before the first soldier was convicted.
"Jack Murtha wasn't there. Jack Murtha has no idea what happened there that day, other than what he has been told. But that didn't stop him from declaring as fact that American Marines had 'killed innocent civilians in cold blood' before the investigations were even complete.
"Shame on you, Jack Murtha. You should know better.
"Jack Murtha, of all people, should understand better than most the importance of letting the legal system work before rendering a judgment. If it hadn't been for the presumption of innocence until guilt is proven beyond a reasonable doubt, Jack Murtha's congressional career would have ended 26 years ago, when the FBI got him on tape first refusing a $50,000 bribe, and then saying, 'At this point, you know, we do business together for a while. Maybe I'll be interested and maybe I won't
Now, I won't say that some day, you know, I, if you made an offer, it may be I would change my mind some day.'

I just found this on Fox, but don't see anywhere in the article anything about what the heading says. Looks like more spin and biased reporting to me against our fighting heroes.

yes, and this congressman has chosen his side for this war. Many other congresspeople in DC have done the same and chosen a side as murtha in this war. A list could be brought to bear with quotes from these demons who claim, mind you claim to be for America. And I'm to believe there's no bridge someone is pushing in the background that just hasn't been found yet. Excuse me, but I think I'll keep looking. Now who is kidding who / whom / whatever. I suppose this is the 'fog' I've always heard about.
Money buys a lot of 'fog' for the fog's sake when one sells out one's country. I believe the number in congress who has thought or said something to this affect is higher than believed. Otherwise; wouldn't something be done abut the oil for food fiasco?
Yep there are good crooks and bad crooks.....So the time-clock chimes. No wonder there is so much competition to have the prime crime locations where prosecution is beyond the scope of the law. Facts truly are stranger than fiction.

Murtha has already humiliated himself in the eyes of our military. He will lose or settle this lawsuit and further humiliate himself and he will lose his House seat to Diana Irey in November.
He desrves every bit of that humiliation, he brought it on himself.

One thing that has been overlooked is that Murtha slandered the staff sergeant again because NO ONE HAS BEEN CHARGED YET!Nobody has overlooked that. It's a central part of this news, and is even addressed prominently in Ms. Irey's press release.

I an soooo happy she put out this statement. Murtha's response was a slap in the face. It was the typical I support the warrior while I call you a psycho wimp.

Yes...it was one of my favorite parts of the release. Let's take another look, shall we? ;*)
If it hadn't been for the presumption of innocence until guilt is proven beyond a reasonable doubt, Jack Murtha's congressional career would have ended 26 years ago,

NO it is not prominently stated in here release. She makes reference that Murtha's earlier slanderous comment was made before any marine was charged, yet she fails to tie in the fact he does it again with his response to the lawsuit.
It has been overlooked by most here that this is the second slander.

Diana Irey leads this pack of conservatives in fundraising on
RightRoots!!
Not only is it more money for her efforts, but this brand new site was plugged via E-mail by the RNC. Her prominence on this list will only further raise her profile.
