Reply #23: I am angry at the Pentagon and * and the whole criminal enterprise [View All]

for wasting all these lives. I didn't consider Tillman a "hero", but he had my admiration for his sacrifice at the time, and the more I read about him, the more I'm impressed. He was a rare breed, an intellectual who enjoyed Chomsky and playing football. Seems like he would have fit in here (apart from being judged by people like you who can't see past the neat little stereotype of football player + soldier= Bush robot)

But I'm also angry at dilettantes who feel they need to smear soldiers to make their point. You know, not everyone over there wants to be there.

I'm glad you think he was an idiot. My advice would be not to share that particular opinion with a veteran.
