So you approve of our leaders exploiting tragic deaths for propaganda purposes?

What slime!! Ish, I consider the source and feel....nothing. Dang, nothing. Not a thing. Wait, I'm feeling something, something, yes, I'm feeling just a little bit sorry for you. Please try to control your righteous, holier than thou, "I'm a victim" attitude that seems to interfere with even a modicum or thoughtful analysis. Hint, take a few breaths, reread the perceived "evil" post and then THINK about it before you run off half cocked and risk making a fool of yourself. Or, if you prefer, just go on ahead and make a fool of yourself. But then you didn't need me to tell you that, did you? PS. I'm a Pat Tillman fan regardless of what the Army and the President's men did to alter the facts of his dying. If you read my posts you'll see that I've never criticized him in any fashion.

Ish, just to spare another couple dozen zillion back-and-forth responses on the Tillman issue that went on earlier and still are — they weren't talking about Tillman. They weren't denigrating Tillman. Everybody, both sides, agrees wholeheartedly that Tillman acted heroically. What they are talking about is what the Army did and said — just the Army and how they approached it. The Army, as an organization, is well apart from Tillman's own personal heroics. Okay?
