Is Tillmans murder yet another war crime by Bush & company?

"What began to come out was that every word released by the Army under the watchful authority of General McChrystal was a lie, not just the murder being depicted as “enemy action” but every detail of the continually changing stories describing what now looks to be a political assassination. Cpl. Tillman had begun to openly discuss views “unfavorable” to the continuation of the war. Tillman was not the “George Bush” crusader robot he was supposed to be. He had disappointed. He was going to have to pay."

OMG are you serious. Oh yes Bush had him offed because he disagreed with him.

This is just as bad as those that think Obama was not born here.

I'm waiting to hear Bush was the second gunman on the grassy knoll that fateful day in Dallas.

Nah, it was friendly fire which was covered up and turned into pro-war propaganda. That's heinous enough.

Nobody knows for sure what it was, because the evidence was quickly burned. Furthermore, I've read from someone who was there that day that he had three bullets holes in his forehead, none of which could have occurred at close range. And it was confirmed there were irregular forces with the convoy that day (C.I.A. likely)

And there is no doubt Tillman had grown disillusioned with the "War on Terror", even remarking that he wanted to speak with Noam Chomsky when he returned stateside, all which help raise troubling questions.

And to think, this was the guy handpicked by obama to run his war.

Judgment.....or lack thereof.

While I don't believe Bush had anything to do with this, and I would find it hard to believe he was intentionally killed, nothing would surprise me anymore.

Three tightly grouped M16 rounds in the forehead from 10 yards is not accidental, and therefore not very Friendly.

Word has it that he was disgusted by the fraud taking place in Afghanistan .. rightfully so, since he gave up a career in the NFL, realizing it was all for naught, he had planned to join the anti-war movement upon his completion of service.

This has frag written all over it. What do you people need? A freaking confession?

That's the military for you. Don't be shocked or upset. They are commanded to provide a certain image to the public and they follow orders. Yes, this misstep by mcchrystal and the recent article fiasco provide some insights into his character, but generally speaking this is what you get with high ranked officers in the military.
