MURTHA DEFAMATION LAWSUIT MOVES FORWARD

"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 in the case.

A Marine Corps sergeant is suing the 16-term congressman for alleging “cold-blooded murder and war crimes” by unnamed soldiers in connection with the deaths of Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha."

REST OF THE STORY: HOT AIR

 

My take of this is I am happy to hear that Rep. Murtha is being held to account for his slanderous statement.  It is one thing to criticize the war or the Bush administration.  It is quite another thing to accuse our troops of "killing innocent civilians in cold blood."
