OhPleaseOhPleaseOhPlease

I so want to see this trial on TV.

WASHINGTON - A federal judge refused Friday to dismiss a defamation case against Rep. John P. Murtha and ordered the Pennsylvania Democrat to give a sworn deposition about his comments alleging "cold-blooded murder and war crimes" by unnamed soldiers in connection with Iraqi civilian deaths.

A Marine Corps sergeant is suing the 18-term congressman for making the charge, which the soldier claims is false. Murtha, who opposes the Iraq war, made the comment during a May, 2006 Capitol Hill news conference in which he predicted that a Pentagon war crimes investigation will show Marines killed dozens of innocent Iraqi civilians in Haditha in 2005.


Murtha, and EX-Marine, used his position as a congressman to go on TV and lie, smear, and slander good Marines. Now that the Marines have been exonerated, Murtha needs to be head responsible for his statements.

With any luck, that senile old fool will be forced out of office.
