5. That is totally wrong....embarassing....
Edited on Thu Apr-29-04 03:16 PM by Wetzelbill
That is how liberals get unfairly painted and why we make easy targets sometimes. When someone on the left writes or says misguided drivel the rest of us get smacked with it.

Of course, it's perfectly acceptable for the far-right to act nuts. That's sort of what they are all about.

Tillman sacrificed for what he believed in. I doubt he was an ideologue. He was simply changed by 9-11 and wanted to sacrifice his career for his country. George Bush exploited 9-11, not Pat Tillman. I've been changed by 9-11 too. I read several newspapers a day, article after article, essay after essay, book after book in order to inform myself. I gave up chances to work in video and film to work towards a more political career. I worked as a columnist etc. After 9-11, we all changed and wanted to do something. Pat Tillman reacted the way he did out of love and integrity. I'm sorry that person wrote that garbage about him. The writer certainly has the right to do so, however, and I support that. The same as I support Safire, Krauthammer and the other glorious idiot's rights for free speech.
