Heads Up! Pat Tillman's Mom Mary, is going to be on the Today Show shortly to discuss |
|
the cover-up in Pat's death! Getting the truth out there!
I have heard Mary Tillman give testimony in a House hearing and she is a very strong voice for the truth.

1. Matt Lauer just said that coming up is a story about Pat Tillman, a fallen hero. |
|
The point is that Pat was not a hero and was killed by friendly fire and the military tried to make a hero out of him.
:grr:

2. Giving up what he gave up makes him a hero |
|
He had a cushy, multi-million dollar NFL contract and a sweet life. He gave it up, voluntarily, and risked his life in the bargain. He qualifies in my book.

4. I think Lauer was thinking in different terms. Tillman was falsely given the Silver Star. |
|
On a different level, you're right, he waa hero. He started to speak out against the war in Iraq.
BTW..I was against both going into Afghanistan (we were sold lies there too) and Iraq.
