I am glad it’s over, but I am sorry these good men had to go through so much suffering.
A couple of Marines pi$$ing on dead Taliban is a lot less offense than the odious John Murtha pi$$ing on the Marines.
I hope that Dante was right and that traitorous jackass is right down there with Judas.

It is time for all these fine soldiers to sue the Murtha estate.

Wasn’t there a ruling the Murtha was protected by the House even for slander that he spewed while not on the House floor?

Thanks for the updates, and all these threads.
While I’m glad that this is finally over for the Sgt. and his family, it still galls me that he had to cut a deal when he did nothing wrong.
What this sorry episode has revealed is that while our rank and file military personnel are some of the finest people in the world and deserve our thanks, the leadership ranks of even our military have been infected and poisoned by the same corruption which has destroyed the civilian branches.
We are, as a nation, in a world of hurt...
To: tarheelswamprat
It would be a good thing to send messages of support to Sgt. Wuterich. Anyone know how or where?

SSgt Wuterich accepted the plea deal as a just and fair outcome as he stepped up once again to take responsibility for the actions of his squad, an act that continues to show his true character and innate leadership traits.That's an interpretation I hadn't heard before.

It's consistent with this segment of the attorney's sentencing argument before Judge Jones:
"He comes here, to this court. He comes here to accept responsibility and to seek a fair and honorable resolution to this travesty of false assumptions, false testimony, false theories and false prosecution. He now stands convicted only of negligent dereliction of duty. He alone has taken responsibility not only for his own actions, but also for the actions of his Marines, who may have misunderstood his intent. He told COL Watt and Scott Pelley that he was responsible for everything his squad did or failed to do. There is no more honorable an expression of Marine Corps leadership than that. There is no better way to exhibit moral courage and integrity than that."

Well, it’s technically over, but they’ve done a lot of damage to a good man who served his country well. It does not make our government look well, that they’d allow this charade to continue for so long.

Compare with the current CIC poser’s usual answer to criticism—”It’s George Bush’s fault.”

Well, this just killed any respect I may have had for Waldhauser.
That clown had the authority to flush the whole obscene, disgraceful fiasco down the toilet where it came from but instead he had to poke Frank Wuterich in the eye with a bullshit “dereliction” charge. Wow. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised given the level of scum now in military “leadership” positions. It ain’t Chesty Puller’s Marine Corps anymore, that’s for sure. Semper Fidelis my ass.
To: smoothsailing
Oh, and by the way, I think Frank’s attorneys sucked.
