Why would you spit in his face like that? Why trash an American hero's name after he has died?

If he did such a thing and you were in approval of his views you surely shouldn't be bringing up his lack of loyalty to his superiors and the military code regarding the chain of command. Shame on you.

RIP Mr. Tillman.

I now exactly what Bush knew...and what he knew was that there were no WMD's in Iraq...and invaded anyway. Apparently 4200 dead US soldiers is OK with you...on a completely unnecessary war...based on 935 publicly stated lies.

First of all, about 1/3 of the Congress were against this invasion. The other 2/3 were lied to...to their face by the fuckin idiot and his band o neogoons in the White House.

You need to google search the Office of Special Plans, headed by Cheney and carried forth by Douglas Feith...an operation put in place to deliberately mislead the American public on what Iraq was and what they weren't.

Calling Bush an idiot regarding Iraq is truly degrading....to all of the true mentallly challenged folks out there.





I didn't put any words in your mouth. I responded to your typical tripe that our military is incapable of committing war crimes.





And the Tillmans' collectively spit in your face for making such a ludicrous and outrageous claim. How the fuck would you like it if your son/brother was gunned down from 10 yards...and the military lied and covered this up for 4 weeks afterword? Yeah...it's all about the fucking money isn't it?

I guess with your way of thinking, anyone who disagreed with Pinnochio on invading Iraq should have 3 bullets plugged in his noggin. Apparently that's what makes us a great democracy, doesn't it?

1...I didn't express shame on you for educating people. I did so for pouring salt in the wounds of a great soldier posthumously. There's a difference.

2. You guessed wrong. Here's my way of thinking clarified for you. No one deserves a bullet in their hear for their political opinions.

3. We don't live in a Democracy...never have. It's a Democratic Republic. There's a difference.

Nobody, except for the fringe, disagreed with his decision at the time. And save me the Bush lied, "Loose Change", conspiracy theory bullshit.

To follow orders is paramount in having a successful military. I would never suggest publicly that someone would openly question orders for it would be a spit in the face of that respective questioner. Mr. Tillman and his family gave much...more than anyone of us on here and I will not spit on his grave by suggesting he was less than a model soldier.

We all have flaws. To point them out publicly when they are not here to defend themselves is disrespectful and sickening.
