It's never a good idea to irritate 1 Marine. Murtha has irritated a lot of Marines, not just the 8 he so stupidly and slanderously charged, judged and condemned.

Here's a perfect example of what I mean about irritating Marines:

Former U.S. Marine Nabs Fire Extinguisher-Wielding Bank Robbery Suspect

Friday, July 13, 2007

DECATUR, Georgia — A former Marine, already irritated about the disappearance of $100 from his bank account, tackled a suspected robber who came into the bank wielding a fire extinguisher and demanding cash.

Timothy Armstead was waiting at the Washington Mutual Bank branch on Tuesday to discuss the missing money when the man came in and told bank employees he had a bomb. The man gave them five minutes to get $2,000 in $50 bills, DeKalb County police said.

As the employees went to the vault to comply, the unidentified man began loudly counting down the minutes, which attracted Armstead's attention, police spokesman Michael Payne said.

When the man then tried to walk out with the money, Armstead, 27, knocked him to the ground. He held the man down — lecturing him on his poor decision — until authorities arrived.

"I just told him it was a very stupid decision and now you get to spend 20 years of your life just for taking some money," Armstead told WSB-TV.

The man was taken to the DeKalb County Jail on suspicion of armed robbery. Jail officials declined to comment on his case Friday. A call to the DeKalb County Sheriff's office was not immediately returned.

Yout words both honor and and humble me, Lily, but I'm just an old Army dog who, like you, cares about our fine Marines.

Good for this former Marine. Sounds like he was enjoying his conversation with the turkey until the law arrived.

Hopefully the writer left out any roughing up of the turkey for the benefit of Tim on purpose. lol

I’m contacting Bill Sali, my Congressional Representative from the state of Idaho, and asking that he do everything possible to help bring a censure motion against Murtha
to the floor of the House of Representatives ASAP.

I would suggest that we all do the same.

Thanks, jaz. Looking forward to reading the post. I’m glad the Michelle Malkins and Brit Humes (Jim Angle tonight) are hitting this story. Murtha’s words should haunt him. A censure vote is the least that should happen.

Any chance they might stand him up and say, let every Marine parent put a foot in his ass before they censure him?

SSgt Frank Wuterich has brought a defamation suit against murtha

I have no idea but there have been motions filed just recently about that and I don’t know when they will be ruled on.
