No one is saying killing civis is right, however you can tell me that a congressman calling a grou guilty before a trial is right? Come on. Why are we fighting if we dont even have the simple fact of guilty unitl proven innocent? I think alot of people that get elected into DC lose their roots as seems to be the case. I would think a former Marine would say wait until all the evidence is presented before judegment. Good for these Marines OORAAHHH. Im in the Army so Marines arent my best friends but in the end we all fight the same battles, and I am glad they are free.
OK, now I've got it. Murtha alleged certain things about what happened at Haditha. Just like Bush, Cheney, Powell, and Rumsfeld et al alleged that Iraq had WMD and we were all going to die any minute.
I recall an interview where Bush was asked by a foreign correspondent if the US should apologize to Iraq and the President was incensed at the question. I haven't seen him or anyone else apologize for that incorrect allegation. So, why the double standard now? Shouldn't someone apologize for placing troops in Haditha to begin with?
Media Snoozing Through Another Haditha Development
"Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani is the latest Marine to turn out not to be a "cold-blooded killer" that the media and Democratic politicians painted Marines charged with the Haditha "massacre" to be. This two weeks after another Marine was acquitted in a Haditha court martial."
Here's a great link. The president of the group is a former Navy Seal officer and a friend of mine. Larry Bailey helped bring down John Kerry with the truth about him. Boot Murtha homepage
Why is it that this democratic congressman thinks the terrorists being detained should be considered "innocent until proven guilty" but our own Marines are called cold blooded killers based on a rumor? The Democratic party has lost their way. . . .
We are discussing how the majority of the Marines hae been found innocent or the charges dropped,although they were already found guilty in the media and by Murtha.
It is off topic but so telling; the typical liberal head in the sand, continuing the smear even when being proven irrefutably wrong.
It's Bush And Cheney That Need To Apologize For Lying Us Into This Evil War - Not Murtha!
So you have no problem with an elected official going on a pc witch hunt after our troops? The same troops who give you all the freedoms that you have? That put themselves in harms way so people like you don't have to?
