Revvin' up the swiftboats...

The swiftboating of John Murtha started a few weeks ago, but it got turbocharged with a lawsuit filed against him for "false, misleading and defamatory" statements.for speaking out about the Haditha atrocity.
Never mind that Murtha never mentioned any names. This guy feels "libeled." Never mind that Murtha's source was a Defense Department report on the matter, the lawsuit claims Murtha "disseminated with malice his hearsay version." Uh, that would be the
Defense Department's "hearsay version," wouldn't it? And MALICE?? Murtha did nothing but decry the circumstances which LED to this horror - how the hell is that MALICIOUS?? He was and continues to take the Troops into consideration as first priority.
The attorneys on the case are
Mark Zaid, who previously defended Col. Anthony Shaffer in the Able Danger probe and
Neal Puckett, former military criminal defense attorney.
