Doesnt Surprise Me in the Least.....


The entire Iraq War is one big lie so it doesn't surprise me in the least to see a story like this. The US government has become hands down one of the most corrupt governments on the face of the planet. The military is no exception. I have absolutely NO DOUBT that Bush was in on the decision to try and turn Tillman into a poster boy for enlisting. I honestly dont think the man did a single honest thing his entire 2 terms in office and that includes the way he won the office. I honestly feel sick every time I see him on TV. The same goes for Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, and pretty much everyone else who served under Bush. I honestly cant even look at them.

This is a great documentary in regards to showing how UTTERLY INEPT our checks and balances have become in our government. My god, did you see those hearings, lol. It was one of the most pathetic displays I have ever seen in regards to hearings. I honestly have no idea how the Tillman family stood silent during that hearing. I would have gotten up after the 82nd "I cant recall", called them all a disgrace and fuc*ing liars and walked out. I could never have sat silent through that especially at the end when all of the generals were all shaking hands and laughing.

The fact that this is being covered up even after all of the new info has come to light, most importantly his journal. When you factor that into everything else that is known.....well it really starts to paint a much different picture in regards to the events that took Tillman's life.

My deepest sympathies go out to the Tillman family. Not knowing what happened just makes it 10,000 times harder to find closure. What the government has done to this family is criminal. I only hope they can find closure some day.

What gets me is they will spend 30 million dollars and many months investigating a consensual Lewinsky blowjob, but will hardly lift a finger for a Pat Tillman death with a obvious cover up.
