MURTHA WANTS TOP ROLE IF DEMS TAKE HOUSE

As San Francisco liberal Nancy Pelosi would be speaker. (CNN) It was Murtha who said of the United States: “I think that we're inciting terrorism.” (Washington Times) In November, the House voted on Murtha’s insistence that U.S. troops pull out of Iraq in six months. That would have taken them out of the area before we got Zarqawi. (Washington Times) Hugh Hewitt on Murtha’s indictment of U.S. Marines in Haditha: Has any other sitting Member of Congress ever done such a thing? Perhaps Congressman Murtha can give us an opinion of the guilt of William Jefferson, to whom he has much greater access and for whom he has much more responsibility as a Member of the House. (HughHewitt) Meanwhile, Mary Katherine Ham offers some media corrections on the Haditha story. (Townhall)
