Wonder what that disgusting pig Murtha has to say about this?
[EXCERPT:]
REP. JOHN MURTHA:
on November 19th, we had an incident in Haditha in Anbar province, where a Marine was killed with an IED. Time magazine reported it, and it’s kind of a puzzling report, because they’re investigating it right now. Let me tell you what the consequences of this have been.
It’s much worse than reported in Time magazine. There was no fire fight. There was no IED that killed these innocent people. Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood. And that’s what the report is going to tell

Good outcome, except for the reduction in grade meeting. If the scrutiny this great officer was subjected to was applied to Ted Kennedy and his ilk, we would have a lot less treasonous activity in this country. We thank the Col. for his service.

My lord, Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani is getting it up the shoot for doing his job, and not backing down.
Even the USMC is becoming politically influenced.
Such unadulterated crap.

Must be a profound disappointment for the military prosecutors, they so wanted to be like their brothers in the ACLU. First you get yourself all morally puffed up, then you wiggle your bottom to see if blood still circulates, then you stab your own countrymen in the back.

Good. Now charge MURTHA with slander.
To: Hans
I would not be surprised if 1) AG Eric Holder investigates this, and 2) al Qaeda sues LTC Chessani.

I hope he’s out getting drunk with Ted Kennedy again, very soon...maybe along with DODD, with any luck...this guy is CURRENTLY the biggest POS in the Government...below the rank of POtuS...

Very good news ... Well, yes and no. OF COURSE, it is good news that they won't try to reinstate the charges.
It is unconsionable that they are even considering that travesty of a Board of Inquiry.
The Colonel DID NOTHING WRONG!!!! He shouldn't have to face the consideration of a reduction of rank.

Some partially good news. They have f****d this guy over and then some. A promotion is in order, not a demotion. The ball-less idiots who started this whole thing need to be tossed out, not Chessani.

What about the disgusting Marine brass who didn’t stand up for him? People in the military say that anyone about O-5 is a politician, and the exceptions prove the rule.
