Tuesday night House Democrats refused to reprimand Rep. John Murtha (D.-Pa.) for threatening a Republican colleague in a manner that violates newly installed, Democrat-crafted ethics rules.
Rep. Mike Rogers (R.-Mich.), a member of the House Intelligence Committee, alleges after he tried to strip a $23 million earmark that Murtha inserted into an intelligence spending bill for his district, Murtha lashed out.
Rogers claims that Murtha shouted the following threat: ?I hope you don't have any earmarks in the defense appropriation bill because they are gone and you will not get any earmarks now and forever.?
