>> They forget that cheerleaders never get in the game

Apt analogy.

Actually, cheerleaders mostly get scr**d by the players and function to increase the sex appeal of the players so they can do it to others too.

Ed,
Would you agree that both cheerleading and denigrating are mistaken ways to approach fp matters? I have not read the Tillman posting chain so i dont know much about what happened in this specific case. It seems to me though that anti-war folks didnt much care when the navy seemed to have done much the same, as charged in Tillman case, for John Kerry way back then if the Swiftboaters charges are to be believed. Depends on whose ox is being gored. Mike

I do know that nobody ever won anything beating themselves up. As much as the left would like it, this is not going to be another Vietnam.
