#1 Front-page WaPo. Maybe he's irritated them?

Not sure. I've subscribed for a time now that I'm in the area so I can track all their stories, not just the ones featured on their site. I think they're going after the defense contractors and lobbyists through Murtha, but I haven't tracked it long enough to be sure.

#2 Murtha would only get a twitch of nerves if they started to refer to it as the "airport to nowhere".

#4 In a Murtha-related item, while the Court of Appeals dismissed a suit for libel about the Haditha Marines, another suit was allowed to go forward as amended - indicating that since he as a member of the legislative branch, was commenting (read lying) about an investigation being run by the executive branch, he was not "acting in his role as a government official".
