When I was serving in the Marines back in the 1980's (at a time when political correctness had no meaning to those of us wearing military uniforms), we used to refer Marines who stabbed other Marines in the back as "buddy f*ckers." I can't rememebr how many times a Gunnery Sergeant or First Sergeant or some junior officer would say to us Marines: "Never f*ck your buddy!" Well, John Murtha, Democrat from Pennsylvania has earned the title "buddy f*cker."
Sorry if my language here is a bit brazen and brash, but I really don't think that the above term goes far enough to describe John Murtha and yet I cannot think of anything more appropriately vulgar. That being said, let's look at the most recent case to be dropped agains the Haditha Marines. From World Net Daily:
| In an interview with nationally syndicated radio talk host Michael Savage, the lead attorney for Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani said he and his client will look into suing Murtha and the Time magazine reporter, Tim McGuirk, who first published the accusations by Iraqi insurgents. But the attorney, Brian Rooney, said nothing will happen immediately because he wants Chessani, described as a devout Christian and the father of six homeschooled children, completely "out of the woods" legally before any action is taken. The government, through Lt. Col. S.M. Sullivan, today filed a notice that it would appeal the case to the next judicial level. |
Here is the first red flag that should be going up. The government is filing an appeal on an acquittal! Yes! On an acquittal! How arrogant is that? Appeals are filed for challenging guilty verdicts, not acquittals!
This shows very clearly how this whole case is being used as a dog and pony show for some politicos in Washington D.C. Rather than letting the wheels of justice turn and do their job, someone in D.C. is using this case to make political hay and will not do the right thing in letting go of it. Why?
More:
| Rep. John Murtha, who fueled the case by declaring the men cold-blooded killers. ... "This is the most important case since Vietnam, if not before," Rooney said. "There's no doubt about it." He noted the New York Times featured the case on the front page when it was being compared by war critics to the infamous My Lai massacre in Vietnam. But now, with evidence the Haditha accusations were a smear, the story has been relegated to the back pages. ... The Time magazine story, according to Rooney, was planted by an insurgent propaganda agent. Publishing of the story was soon followed by a May 17, 2006, news conference by Murtha. The congressman announced he had been told by the highest levels of the Marine Corps there was no firefight and Marines "killed innocent civilians in cold blood." "All the information I get, it comes from the commanders, it comes from people who know what they're talking about," Murtha told reporters at the time. Murtha's assertions, however, conflicted with results from the military's own investigations. An initial probe by Army Col. G.A. Watt found no indications coalition forces "intentionally targeted, engaged and killed noncombatants." Later, Army Maj. Gen. Aldon Bargewell found no cover-up. |
It is clearly a political embarrassment to Murtha and now, since he couldn't find a cover-up in Haditha, he and other Democrats are scrambling to cover up their own culpability in judging U.S. Marines to be guilty until proven innocent.
Thus, John Murtha and his fellow Dems are "buddy f*ckers."
