News and Notes For Thursday

It's feeling like fall is coming here in the great state of New Jersey. A beautiful time of year except it means winter is coming as well.

Here's some news from around the web:

-Babalu finds more communist craziness at the official website of The Messiah BH Obama. H/T: LGF.

-Pakistan figures they'd rather battle us than the Taliban/al-Qaeda. Probably not such a wise choice.

-My favorite story of the day concerns the worst congressman:

One of the Marines cleared in the killings of Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha plans to sue his congressman today for statements he says defamed him and other members of his squad.

Former Marine Lance Cpl. Justin Sharratt, 24, of Canonsburg, will file a civil lawsuit against U.S. Rep. John P. Murtha, D-Johnstown, who was widely quoted two years ago saying that eight Marines carried out a cold-blooded killing of 24 civilians in the Iraqi town on Nov. 19, 2005.

Charges were later dropped against all but one of the Marines, with a military prosecutor calling allegations against Mr. Sharratt "incredible."

Noah Geary, a Washington County lawyer representing Mr. Sharratt, said his client will file suit today in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh accusing Mr. Murtha of violating his constitutional rights as well as slander for statements about the Haditha incident. A 1:30 p.m. news conference has been planned to announce the suit.

Awesome, I hope he takes every penny that fat, corrupt bastard has.

-McCain is now tied again among registered voters according to Gallup.

-Palin Derangement Syndrome is now a nationwide epidemic and the symptom of blithering idiocy is manifesting itself.

-Leave it to the local press of Chicago who know Obama best to actually vet him and dig into his shady deals of the past. At least the AP is now forced to cover it. Don't expect to see this story in the NY Times tomorrow.
