Now the man who greased the chain of command that orchestrated this great deception is prepared to assume total control of US operations in Afghanistan: Lt. Gen. Stanley McChrystal. It was McChrystal who approved Tillman's posthumous Silver Star, a medal given explicitly for combat, even though he later testified that he "suspected" friendly fire.

Pat's father, Pat Tillman Sr., told the Associated Press, "I do believe that guy participated in a falsified homicide investigation."

You obviously did not read the article...did you? Who was sitting in the Oval Office when Tillman was killed? Whose lie did Tillman fall for to make him enlist in the first place?

Yet despite this, both Democrats and Republicans are rushing to heap praise on McChrystal, including Sen. John McCain.

McChrystal was already a General in Iraq or did you think that Obama new him from the streets of Chicago?

So let's dig up some dirt on the general. What is the OP's intention in doing this, I wonder? Are you trying to discredit him because he is at odds with Obama or are you trying to discredit him because Obama picked him?

Great Jon Stewart/Daily Show interview with Jon Krakauer, author of "Where Men Win Glory" about Pat Tillman. Tillman is a true American hero, and his family and the nation deserved to know the truth about his death.

Are you saying that I wrote the article? What is your point? I just read this for the first time today myself.

How about because he participated in a cover-up and should be held accountable for his actions? Or has that gone out of style amongst the top brass?

McChrystal also has a connection to torture, hes special ops, these guys are into just about everything, and there is no "out of bounds" to some of these people. Covering up the Tillman affair is, in my eyes, unforgivable. You can keep your job but you cannot win respect or admiration. If war turns into porn for you and it satisfies some dark corner of your soul then I wonder just how much someone can claim they are fighting a war and still are above reproach.

No man is above reproach.
