About Murtha and the 'cold-blooded murder' statements,

and his defense on them. It had been reported that he made the statement after being briefed by the General Hagee. Well, Ace points to this at Patterico, who had checked on the matter. More specifically, on the reports from the L.A. Times.

It seems that the General's office specifically says the General DID NOT brief Murtha until a week after he spewed on that news show. And after being shown the proof, the paper insists the story was accurate.

I always thought that honesty and professionalism insisted that errors be corrected. You could say especially on such a matter as this. Apparently not.
