Just got an e-mail from Darryl Sharratt who THANKS EVERYONE for what we are doing!
Darryl, father of Lance Corporal Justin Sharratt, has been to this thread and he writes:
I would like to thank you all on behalf of my son, Justin, and Wuterich, Tatum, Dela Cruz, Chessani, McConnell, Stone and Grayson. These men are truly heroes.
I find myself in an ironic situation here in Pa., the 12th Congressional District. The man you would consider calling upon, a US Congressman, to present your case is the man who is trying to hang these Marines. I have written and e-mailed Congressman Murtha's office numerous times and they have failed to respond. I am slowly losing faith in our government.
David, I have read your post in Free Republic, regarding Hannity and Colmes, and you have done a great job presenting our case. I have spoken with Gary Meyers, Justin's attorney, and we have reviewed the statement Alan Colmes made on his talk show. WHAT A BLUNDER. It will be interesting to see how Fox and Alan Colmes responds. We will all have to wait and see. I will prepare my e-mails and send them as soon as I finish talking with you.
Again, I would like to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for caring about our Marines.
Darryl
I have seen commercials for a show on CNN with a guy from the other trial the Hamadian (sp) trial, ..I think his last name is Thomas (?)...
And it has him talking about being guilty.
Have you seen that ad??
Wonderful message!
As for Colmes his repugnant behavior is not an anomaly for him or Murtha or a dozen other Democratics who put those warriors, and us, in greater danger with their every foul utterance. I will never forget what the heroes or the traitors have done.
Thanks to Darryl Sharratt for standing up for his son and the other accused Haditha Marines. It would be great to see Mr. Sharratt on with Hannity & Colmes along with Jack Murtha to set the record straight.
Maybe Mr. Sharratt could ask Murtha why he has aided the prosecution's case with so much free publicity, but hasn't lifted a finger or minute of free publicity to the defense. Maybe Mr. Sharratt could ask Mr. Murtha what recourse he has when his own representative won't return requests for help. Maybe he could ask Mr. Murtha to show some fairness now by donating to the Marines' defense fund, along with Colmes, then give a good plug for the appropriate website.
I doubt Mr. Murtha would want to face the father of one of the Marines he has already pronounced guilty, but that as well could be used in a segment by saying that Mr. Murtha was invited, but didn't want to answer a concerned father and contituent's questions. This has the opportunity for some must see TV. (Of course I'd bring the lawyer, too.)
America needs to see the other side of this case, not just Mr. Murtha's or the media' side. It's an uphill battle, but Marines are known for fighting and winning the tough ones.
Semper Fi Mr. Sharrat and tell your son to keep his butt down and his spirits up.
God bless theis dear dad that is going through so much with his son.
