A non-profit legal group representing Marine Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani against government allegations related to a firefight in Haditha, Iraq, is crediting radio talk show host Michael Savage and his audience with helping bring about victory.
"Michael Savage has given a national forum to the law center so that we could show the government's persecution of one of our bravest combat leaders," said Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Thomas More Law Center.
"The government took its best shot and lost. They have wasted millions of taxpayers' dollars. It's time for the Pentagon to say 'enough is enough.' I now call upon our military and civilian leaders to drop this persecution of Lt. Col. Chessani and his family," Thompson said today.
WND reported yesterday when the Navy-Marine Corps Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed a decision to dismiss the counts against Chessani.
The law center said the result was at least partly the work of Savage and the audience of his radio show, "The Savage Nation," who donate tens of thousands of dollars for the expenses of the defense.

Those of you that helped out, this is for you.
Savage is a Constitutional hero who is unjustly maligned and slandered by many self-proclaimed conservatives.
Savage has been on this like gum on a shoe.
Way to go, Mike The AMERICAN!!!
Glad to see Savage get the credit. Well deserved
I am sure the Mao Levin fans will still come on here and find something stupid to say about Savage.
However, Mao has never done anything to prevent the railroading of our military and law enforcement when they have been falsely accused
Murtha should be in prison for sedition or at least sued for damages
Hanged for treason. I volunteer to pull the lever.
Absolutely correct....and unlike many of the pseudo-con talk hosts....only Savage is the one who truly has America and American interests, first and foremost.
I haven't heard what happened with Wuterich though, does anyone know ?
“haven’t heard what happened with Wuterich though”
Redrover should know the status
Mike is OK as long as he takes his medicines.
I agree. He is a passionate man and gets carried away sometimes, and lots of people misconstrue his passion for hatred. At least he does stand up for his beliefs instead of cowering in the corner like too many do in this country. People need to listen to his show for an extended period of time to really get what he is all about. Don’t get me wrong, he can be a jerk sometimes, but, most of us are guilty of that ourselves from time to time as well.
Obama should be impeached and imprisoned for sedition also , for announcing a date for withdrawal from iraq and for supplying Hamas with almost 1 billion dollars
I’m surprised he hasn’t blown gasket. LOL
Will moving mellow him out?
Not too shabby for a ‘faux conservative’ huh fellas?
Ping
Yes,he is.I know there are some very thankful families of MARINES out there.Great job.
Dr. Savage should be commended for the support he has given to the Haditha Marines and the very large amount of funds he has raised. Excellent job!
Thanks for the ping, Lily.
