John Murtha’s big, fat mouth is still wreaking havoc on the lives of the Haditha Marines he defamed. But the Marines keep winning in court. Yesterday’s good news from the Thomas More Law Center, which has vigorously defended the accused Marines:
A government official has informed the Thomas More Law Center that the government will not [...]

It looks as if justice may once again prevail… for John Murtha. For the troops he defamed, probably not so much:
A Justice Department attorney said U.S. Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., should be immune from a defamation lawsuit filed by a former Marine from western Pennsylvania.
Essentially, Murtha’s attorney said the lawsuit filed in September by Justin [...]

I had prayed before the election that I wouldn’t have to pay one more iota of attention to the pork-filled, cut-and-run smear merchant John Murtha. Our prayers, alas, were not answered. Now, this corruptocrat is trying to hide from justice in the Haditha slander lawsuits:

My syndicated column today spotlights the upstart candidacy of Republican newcomer Bill Russell, who is challenging corruptocrat John Murtha in Pennsylvania.

Paging John Murtha: Haditha Marine Lt. Andrew Grayson found not guilty on all counts. See if you can find the story on the NYTimes or any other MSM outlet that splashed the original accusations all over their front pages. You’ll need a magnifying glass.

Guilty.

Paging John Murtha…

The real defining atrocity.

Paging Jack Murtha.

Going down.

Hello, Jack?

Hold the line.

Over to you, Jack Murtha.

Babbling Jack Murtha owes this man and his family an apology–and maybe more.

So the leakers are now telling the Los Angeles Times:
The general charged with investigating whether Marines tried to cover up the killing of 24 civilians in Haditha has completed his report, finding that Marine officers failed to ask the right questions, an official close to the investigation said Friday.
Nothing in the report points to a [...]
