Wuterich can challenge the ruling, and he should.

At the very least, the congressman should admit he didn't have the facts and apologize to the Marines he slandered.

Good for the Lancaster New Era!

It's heartening to see media in PA picking up on the blatant disregard for our military and especially the Haditha Marines by Murtha.

I don't recall that the Trib-Democrat or the Pittsburgh Trib-Review have come out against him, they've been in the tank for Fat Jack forever but maybe I just didn't see it.

They havn't, they're doing all they can to ignore the story.

After all, it would screw up their re-election endorsements for Murtha that they keep on file.

"If I'm corrupt," said the congressman, "It's because I take care of my district."
TOTALLY AMAZING! Here lies why he has stayed in power for so long. It will be very difficult to vote him out. To many are on his dole. I am no Marine. But I reserve the right to say he is an EX-Marine. One with no semblance of honor or dignity left.
But obviously we all know that already. I found out today my mom's doctor, who escaped many years back from the Iron Curtain (Polish), is a conservative Republican. Who has in the past few weeks attended two tea parties in Philly. I of course wrote down for him the Freerepublic web site. Sadly I have my hands at present due to my moms hospitalization then nursing home, now just brought her home in hopes things can get better. So dear friends as I mentioned to freema the other day, if you don't hear from me from pings it is due to my little time on the site of recent. I do try to scan for major events however.

With Jack Murtha, this is the proof that “it’s whatever floats his boat”. :)
