Wonderful recommendations!
So you don't believe that soldiers involved in friendly fire incidents on an active battlefield deserve medals of courage?

That's not the issue.

This is the nuts and guts of the issue:
Quote:
The chickenhawks in charge, whose only exposure to war was watching John Wayne movies, claimed that he died charging a hill and was cut down by the radical Islamic enemies of freedom. In the weeks preceding his death, Tillman was beginning to question what exactly he was fighting for, telling friends that he believed the war in Iraq was " [expletive] illegal." He may not have known what he was fighting for, but it's now clear what he died for: public relations. Today, after five years, six investigations and two Congressional hearings, questions still linger about how Tillman died and why it was covered up.
McChrystal's Pat Tillman Connection

Do you get it?

The chickenhawk lies?

The cover up?

This XXXX dishonored the memory and heroism of Pat Tillman.

I don't understand your outrage. McChrystal's your boy's general now. Are you saying that you disagree with "the Great One"?

Frankly, Lefties were wondering why the Hades Obama elevated McChrystal to his new position.

Lefties don't think McChrystal is an honorable man.

An ambitious man, to be sure... but a man of honor and integrity?
