Another Marine found Innocent (you'll love this)
NRO's Corner ^ | April 9, 2009 | Michael Ledeen

Posted on 04/09/2009 12:34:34 PM PDT by Sergeant Tim

Sgt Ryan Weemer, accused of killing an unarmed man during the battle of Fallujah. Acquitted by a jury of eight officers who had been in combat.

Good thing Jack Murtha wasn't on the jury; he would have likely voted for conviction before the first witness was sworn.

Tell me again how he keeps winning elections. And then fix it, please.

Some of my best friends are current and formerly active Marines. Most are great men.

Tell me again how he keeps winning elections.

Pork. Pork. And pork. He is a very nasty guy who takes pleasure in insulting his own constituents, whom he referred to as rednecks in the last election campaign.

But he is one of those guys who manages to get re-elected again and again because the greed of his constituents is apparently greater than their sense of conscience or honor or even self-pride.

Well, Little Tommy Daschle finally got thrown out by disgusted voters, in spite of all his pork. Maybe some day Murtha will suffer the same fate.

Murtha, when in the Marines, was an intelligence officer if I recall correctly. (ironically? so was Daschle in the USAF)

I’m sure Murtha was in combat areas , not sure if he ever went ‘Kerry’ or came close.

HOO-RAAAH

Now we should go after Murtha. He’s an officer, so he can be recalled COG. Then we can cout-martial for ‘Conduct not Becoming.’ then cashier him and take him off the retirement rolls. Maybe even give him a few years in Leavenworth.
Just love to see that happen.

Semper FI......

How does he keep getting elected? Well, the greed of his constituents knows no bounds. They don’t care what he says or does as long as the pork keeps comin’.

Murtha is one of the biggest fools in PA. The only ones bigger are the ones that voted for him.

PLEASE! Let it be so! Murtha needs to experience the S A M E kind of conduct He shelled out. The only difference? He would be found GUILTY.

SO glad to see this man who defended our freedom free !!!

My favorite part:

Glad someone is calling out the obscene behavior.

Isn’t this great news, Vel?

While the JAG Corps and different investigative services seem to want to go after our troops for any possible infraction our jury panels whether civilian or military seem to put most of the cases in perspective.

He keeps winning elections because the majority of the people of his district are as corrupt as he is. I wouldn’t live anywhere near that district.
