Do you Liberal Elitists have any right-winger friends? If so, do you argue with them? I had an argument with a right-winger friend today. I knew I had won when he resorted to ad hominem attacks, e.g., "I think you're hysterical." "You're angry." "You're bitter." etc...
I'll believe that the media can be salvaged, the day that I hear the words "Carlyle Group" uttered in a story related to the port security debacle.

I don't think this guy even got the gist of my argument. I think he just knew I didn't buy his bullshit and it made him mad.
He'd never say those things to a man, btw. He might resort to ad hominem attacks, but they'd be more in the nature of, "You're an asshole!" or "You don't know shit."

There are two kinds of things in the world, to a wingnut:
"Good" things, which go out of their way to heap praise and adulation onto Dear Leader, justifying every action he has taken since birth, no matter how wacky, and explaining why everything he does is Good for America, and
"Bad" things, which don't.

Would a Tillman movie include his opposition to the Iraq disaster? Would it include the Bush Administration's initial lies about how he was killed?
Actuall most of my more conservative friends - no wingnuts just plain old conservatives - have taken to just shaking their heads sadly when I mention the latest bush idiocy - and they no longer spout talking points either - in truth there is little joy in "I told you so," so I don't go there -
Real conservatism has a place in a society that is changing as rapidly as ours is - unfortunately there are very few elected representatives who understand what conservatism actually is - here's a clue trolls (if there are any left) - it is not turning back the clock!

Unless the Bush administration is paying to make it, I'd hope so, if they want the family's approval.
As long as it includes Chomsky, friendly fire and Tillman realizing the conquest was shit. We have seen how Soviet our media could get with that Showtime special about IX/XI where, confronted with presenting Preznit Dumbya as admirable and competant, they gave up entirely and sought an actor who looked and sounded nothing like him.
I wonder what Pat Tillman would have thought of Atrios's comparison of the US military to those of Hitler and Stalin?

Maybe he an Noam Chomsky would have discussed it at the meeting they had scheduled before Tillman was killed by friendly fire and the government tried to cover it up.

So am I. Cog fucks goats, therefore nothing he has to say is of any value.
So you are saying he would have approved of Duncan Black's comparisons of the US military to those of Hitler and Stalins during the fake Koran flushing scandal?
This is a dishonest question. None of us are capable or worthy of sticking words into Tillman's mouth. That being said, all intelligent people, to include numerous conservatives such as Dennis the Peasant, seriously hate the divisive Islam-targeting tactics of this administration. It is precisely the opposite of what should be done, and exactly what binLadn wants Bush to do. It justifies their global jihad mindset. Therefore the silly fake outrage Cog displays is totally baseless, and while no definite statement can be said about Tillman's opinions about things following his being shot in the back by his own unit, it seems entirely possible and even likely that he could've agreed with it given what we know.
Cog sure has that "leech-like" maw thing down.

This is just pathetic. (And what religion, exactly, forbids one to be taught by a transgendered person?)
The Eagleswood School District will meet Monday to hear a parent's demand that a transgendered substitute teacher be either fired or parents allowed to have their children taught by someone else.
Lily B. McBeth became a substitute teacher after retiring from her job as a medical marketing executive. At age 70 she says she knows something about kids. Before transitioning last year she fathered and raised three of her own.
The school district says that her teaching record is among the best in the state.
But none of that is good enough for parent Mark Schnepp.
Schnepp has two children attending school in district. He says that the idea of someone who had a sex change teaching his children is an affront to his convictions.
"It violates my religious beliefs," the 39-year-old told the Asbury Park Press.
That autistic NY high school kid who cleaned up scoring points in a game is today's most heart-warming story.

"Military interrogators posing as FBI agents at the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, wrapped terrorism suspects in an Israeli flag and forced them to watch homosexual pornography under strobe lights during interrogation sessions that lasted as long as 18 hours, according to one of a batch of FBI memos released Thursday."
...
"Military interrogators "are adamant that their interrogation strategies are the best ones to use despite a lack of evidence of their success," it said."
There is no excuse for barbarity, though Cog will certainly try his best. He and all his kind are a menace to this nation.

Is postmodernism the antithesis of modernism, or its fullest extension, and does it reinforce or subvert capitalist hegemony?
It's an extension. "Fullest" implies a categorization that makes me uncomfortable. The social domain of literary modernism or postmodernism can be seen as the creation of the dominated field of the dominant class. It has the potential to lay bare the operations and characteristic mechanisms of the dominant class, but only through adherence to the largely forgotten principles of intellectual freedom.

I personally feel movies glorifying a war, especially one so current, is in bad taste. This is not the time for such a movie. The viewing public is too polarized to appreciate the theme. Better to let time erode the bitterness and smooth out the rough edges.
I don't see that at all.
I don't see that either of these movies, the real one Reiner has released, and the idea of one about Tillman, glorify war at all. In fact, both would seem to me to present an opposing view to that of glorifying the war.

Gay sex bad.
War, killing, destruction good.
RALEIGH, N.C. - The Army has recommended that seven 82nd Airborne Division paratroopers be discharged following allegations they engaged in sex acts shown on a gay pornographic Web site.
Three soldiers face courts-martial on charges of sodomy, pandering and engaging in sex acts for money. Four others received nonjudicial punishments, according to a statement released by the military Friday.
The charges do not mention the name of the site, but the division had previously been investigating allegations that soldiers appeared on a gay pornography Web site. A spokesman for the division said the charges were a result of that investigation.
The military-themed Web site did not make any direct reference to the division or Fort Bragg, a sprawling post about 70 miles south of Raleigh.
"As far as we're concerned, it's isolated to the unit, and our investigation determined that these seven individuals were the only ones" involved, said 82nd Airborne spokesman Maj. Thomas Earnhardt.
The charges indicate the soldiers' behavior is "a much more serious matter than just their sexual orientation," said Steve Ralls, a spokesman for Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a legal group that helps gays and lesbians in the military.
"I'm not going to make excuses for service members who are taking part in sexual conduct for money," said Ralls. "It would be absolutely criminal regardless of whether they were heterosexual or gay."
Earnhardt said the three soldiers charged under military law had been appointed military attorneys, but he said the lawyers would be unavailable for comment on Friday.
The three soldiers who face courts-martial are: Spc. Richard T. Ashley, Pfc. Wesley K. Mitten and Pvt. Kagen B. Mullen. The Army did not release their ages or hometowns, but said all seven paratroopers were members of the 2nd Battalion of the 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment.
An arraignment was scheduled for March 7.
The other four soldiers who received nonjudicial penalties were not identified. Their punishments included reduction to the rank of private, 45 days of restriction to the unit area, 45 days of extra duty and forfeiture of a month's pay.
The registered owner of the Web site's domain name lists an address in Fayetteville, the city that adjoins Fort Bragg. A phone number listed for the registered owner was not in service Friday, and e-mails to the owner have been regularly returned as undeliverable.
The 15,000 paratroopers of the 82nd Airborne are among the Army's most elite soldiers, having volunteered to serve in a unit that trains to deploy anywhere in the world within 18 hours.
The military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy states that "homosexual orientation alone is not a bar to service, but homosexual conduct is incompatible with military service." Service members who violate the policy are removed from the military.
This is just pathetic. (And what religion, exactly, forbids one to be taught by a transgendered person?)
What it is is ignorant. These people have no clue what transgendered means, really.
I would but we aren't exactly best bidets. But I'd be willing toilet him praise me, of course.

i took my daughter to see a Cindy Sherman show at the BMA. she was about 5. the guard warned me before going in that the work was very extreme and might be offensive. but i knew cindy's work, mostly the film stills some others. i figured some self portrait nudity, which seemed like a good idea to me. so with out a thought we entered.

Yep. Freedom is on the march:
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Bombs and gunfire killed about 60 people as another daytime curfew Saturday failed to halt violence that has claimed nearly 200 lives since the destruction of a Shiite shrine set off a wave of retribution against Sunnis and pushed Iraq toward civil war.
In an unusual round of telephone diplomacy, President Bush spoke with seven leaders of Shiite, Sunni Arab and Kurdish political parties in a bid to defuse the sectarian crisis unleashed by the bombing of the Shiites' Askariya shrine in Samarra.
Bush "encouraged them to continue to work together to thwart the efforts of the perpetrators of the violence to sow discord among Iraq's communities," said Frederick Jones, a spokesman for the White House's National Security Council.
Reprisal attacks that followed the Wednesday blast in Samarra have derailed talks on a forming new Iraqi government and threaten Washington's goal of building up a self-sufficient Iraq free of U.S. military involvement.
A second straight day of curfew in Baghdad and three surrounding provinces kept the city relatively calm, raising hopes the worst of the crisis was past. Authorities lifted the curfew in the areas outside Baghdad but decreed an all-day vehicle ban Sunday for the capital and its suburbs.
"I think the danger of civil war as a result of this attack has diminished, although I do not believe we are completely out of danger yet," U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad told reporters Saturday night.
Nevertheless, bloodshed continued.
A car bomb exploded in the Shiite holy city of Karbala, killing at least six people, hospital officials said. Gunmen broke into a Shiite home northeast of Baghdad and massacred 13 male members, police said.
Bodies of 14 Iraqi police commandos were found near their three burned vehicles near a Sunni mosque in southwestern Baghdad, police Maj. Falah al-Mohammedawi said. Two rockets slammed into Baghdad's Shiite slum, Sadr City, killing three people, including a child, and wounding seven, police said.
Two Iraqi security officers guarding the funeral of an Al-Arabiya television correspondent Atwar Bahjat were killed and four other people were wounded when a car bomb exploded as mourners left a cemetery in western Baghdad. Bahjat was slain Wednesday along with two colleagues after covering the Samarra shrine bombing.
Earlier, shooting broke out as the funeral procession was carrying her coffin near the home of Harith al-Dhari, head of the Association of Muslim Scholars, a prominent Sunni clerical group. One policeman was killed and two people were wounded in the shooting, police said, adding they believed the procession was the target.
At least 21 other people died in small-scale shootings and bombings in Baghdad and western areas of the city, according to police and hospital reports.
I've watched a lot of WWII movies, because I like old movies in general. The better ones, like Twelve O'Clock High, The Best Years of Our Lives, and Sink the Bismark certainly didn't glorify war.

Eli,
I started with an old FTB Canon and later upgraded to a Canon F1. Used a lightmeter too. And developed and printed my own as well. That was just as intensifying as trying to get the "right" picture at the "right" time at the "right" angle at the "right" time of day using the "right" film at the "right " f-stop.
I gave up when the mechanized BORG camera types hit the scene and could take multiple shots within a few seconds and seem to always pull out a winning photo without any effort. Took all the fun out of it.
Heh. "Discharge."
you've got a spunky imagination!
"It violates my religious beliefs," the 39-year-old told the Asbury Park Press.
This, my friend, is a prime example of the worthless shit that deserves to be a serf.
from fredo's comments yesterday before the american legion. he's so delusional; but what's disgusting is these legionnaires applaud his bullshit :
We're carrying out our clear strategy of victory in Iraq. On the political side, we're helping Iraqis build a strong democracy so old resentments will be eased and the insurgency marginalized. On the economic side, we're continuing reconstruction efforts and helping Iraqis build a modern economy so all Iraqi citizens can experience the benefits of freedom.
And on the security side, we're striking terrorist targets, and at the same time, training Iraqis which are becoming increasingly capable of carrying the fight to the enemy. Our strategy in Iraq is, as the Iraqis stand up, we'll stand down. Troop levels on the ground will be decided by commanders on the ground -- not by politicians in Washington, D.C. (Applause.)
i'm so cynical, i wonder if it's a gambit to get discharged.

Cisco - well, I kind of drift over in your direction with regard to Pat Tillman, though I'm of the opinion that art, even popular art, should go where it will when it will. That's part of its function, IMO.
But you couched your objection in terms of the movies' possible glorification of war, and I don't think they are those types of movies.
It's too late for objections to Reiner's movie - it's done.
Gosh, "honored" is kind of a big word. I really do think Nocapitol deserves more attention. It's a good blog and you hit stories that other bloggers don't seem to find or be interested in for some reason. That makes the blog even more interesting and valuable.
Y'all reading this? Go visit rorschach's blog sometime, please. It's worth it.
Tena
Yeah, "honored" felt rather weighty as I was writing, but it felt accurate as well, so there you go.
I'm glad that the stories I catch interest you. I occasionally send them to Atrios, but nothing much comes of it. I'm more about issues and ideas, I think, rather than personalities and candidates...

I didn't watch all ofit, but they only applauded when he mentioned the troops and more general kinds of flag-waving speechifying.

I gave up when the mechanized BORG camera types hit the scene and could take multiple shots within a few seconds and seem to always pull out a winning photo without any effort. Took all the fun out of it.
For what it's worth, I shoot pretty much the same way I always shot: fully manual, very slow, bracketing like hell. But being able to change ISO on the fly is really a blessing. Plus I'm mainly posting stuff to the web anyway, so with digital I eliminate the middleman.

coo coo's war was good for politics, not so good for security/defense.
no, kerry said it perfectly, what we needed was a more sensitive, intelligent "war on terror". unfortunately we are populated with too many cogs.
no one will accuse coo coo of being to senistive or intelligent. and for cog, that's all that matters.

Planted the fennel, cleaned out two beds, planted the loganberries, a very large Mexican bird of paradise, raked out the leaves so as to begin overseeding the lawn with beautiful blue fescue, decided that the turquoise blue Malaysian pots at Baker's were the pots for me, planted two more tomatoes, put in the yellow crookneck squash and about half a pound of onion sets. Threw back the seven yellow tennis balls that had migrated over the 9' wall. Commiserated with my neighbor over his much loved doggie who is nearing the Rainbow Bridge. Washed the dishes. Swept the house.

Wait a minute, who is talking about using his death to make a political statement? The thought is a movie about his life - which is an artistic statement. If, because of the nature of his life and death, it makes a political statement then the political statement is an honest expression of the truth of his life.
How is that exploitation?

Mrs. Bocho has been pretty apolitical for the last 5 years. She agrees with me on most political issues but without the outrage.

3000 Americans on 9/11
If Bush cab demgougue 3000 Americans, using them like a motlotov cocktail to light the world onm fire, then the true story of Pat Tillman should be told. You see, the truth is important.
See, I'm only reading the morning paper now:
DEBBIE HUMMEL - The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY -- A small-town judge with three wives was ordered removed from the bench by the Utah Supreme Court on Friday.
The court unanimously agreed with the findings of the state's Judicial Conduct Commission, which recommended the removal of Judge Walter K. Steed for violating the state's bigamy law.
Steed said he accepted the decision.
"I had hoped that the court would see my case as an opportunity to correct the injustices that are caused by the criminalization of my religious beliefs and lifestyle," Steed said in a statement. "I am disappointed the court did not reach those issues in my case."
Steed has served for 25 years on the Justice Court in the polygamist community of Hildale in southern Utah, where he ruled on such matters as drunken driving and domestic violence cases.
A year ago, the commission issued an order seeking Steed's removal from the bench after a 14-month investigation determined Steed was a polygamist. Bigamy is a third-degree felony in Utah, punishable by up to five years in prison and up to $5,000 in fines.
"Judge Steed's relationship with his three plural wives for more than 20 years clearly runs afoul of the prohibition," the ruling said. "When the law is violated or ignored by those charged by society with the fair and impartial enforcement of the law, the stability of our society is placed at undue risk."
The initial complaint against Steed was filed with the commission in November 2003 by Tapestry Against Polygamy, a group founded by former polygamous women who help others leave the secretive religious colonies.
Steed legally married his first wife in 1965, according to court documents. The second and third wives were married to him in the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints's relgious ceremonies in 1975 and 1985. The three women are sisters.
Steed has 32 children by the three women, according to court documents.
"The case provided an opportunity to address the issue of polygamy head-on. But they left that opportunity for another day," Steed's lawyer, Rodney R. Parker, said at a news conference.
Parker said it's unlikely Steed will appeal the ruling, because the court did not address arguments that even though polygamy is illegal, the case involved consenting adults and Utah's bigamy law is rarely, if ever, enforced. The last bigamy case prosecuted in Utah was in the 1950s.
Parker said it was unclear when the removal order takes effect, but he has advised his client not to hear any more cases.
In the court's November hearing, justices focused their questions on two issues: whether Steed's conduct impugns the judicial office and whether he should be removed from the bench if he has not been tried and convicted of bigamy.

But we must strongly reject both models as they're each just one experience deep. Are we creating an image of a person who will bounce back and forth between ideologies based on their experiences, in a kind of perverted Aristotleanism? Isn't there a deeper trend that can be tapped, like the fact that rightist thinking is not a real ideology but a continuity of ad hoc apologetics for power/wealth, whereas leftist ideologies are usually attempts to understand and reform society based on facts rightists don't care about?

I don't mind Crystal so much, although when he directs himself ("Mr. Saturday Night") it's unwatchable. But I find Ben Stiller a lot funnier when he plays clueless egomaniacs ("Dodgeball") than when he plays the neurotic nebbishy guy.

possibly a product of the "no child left behind" act
The thing about Billy Crystal is he did these three imitations that were truly brilliant, and he did interesting work on a show called Soap as one of the first openly homosexual TV characters. And then he conciously decided to never be remotely funny ever again. It is not known why but it is speculated that UFOs, the sight of a child hit by a truck, or the Oscars may be to blame. This makes it ominous for Jon Stewart to be hosting...can he survive the sheer weight of self-righteous Hollywood organizational respectability...

I think some of you have too much time on your hands. You need a hobby. Maybe stamp collecting. I'm told stamp collecting is a very rewarding and educational hobby. Maybe you should try that.
Or maybe you should take some classes. I'm taking a class on Einstein. Don't ask me why. My brain hurts enough as it is.
Anyway, do animals lie? Hmm. The other day, my stoo-pid dog tore up a feather pillow, and when I confronted him with it, he didn't deny it. He just looked embarrassed. Plus he did a lousy job of cleaning up the mess. I don't see what's so hard about operating a broom.

Bushboy's atrocity in Iraq could not have been "sold" to the American people without the craven complicity of the MSM.
Bushboy, Cheneychins, Kindasleazy, Rummie and even Powell all told monstrous lies, which the MSM dutifully reported as though they were true.
The MSM were the heralds of war and the war's greatest cheerleaders. The flags went on all their lapels and the American and Iraqi people were sold out to the commercial interests of the MSM.

he thing about Billy Crystal is he did these three imitations that were truly brilliant, and he did interesting work on a show called Soap as one of the first openly homosexual TV characters. And then he conciously decided to never be remotely funny ever again.
That's just how I see his career.
I kept watching him based on his work on "Soap." I kept being disappointed. Now I won't watch him - he's a bundle of mannerisms.

That is the first thing I've ever read about him that made sense.
At least Steve Martin can be explained by saying that every now and again he needs a payday so he can do whatever he wants the rest of the time.

Rorschach, I took a 40 minute nap that lasted 90 minutes this afternoon.
Thank you, Echidne. Would that it were so simple.
Anyway, do animals lie? Hmm. The other day, my stoo-pid dog tore up a feather pillow, and when I confronted him with it, he didn't deny it. He just looked embarrassed. Plus he did a lousy job of cleaning up the mess. I don't see what's so hard about operating a broom.
Dogs may not volunteer the truth but they don't lie. Cats do.

My dogs do try to deceive each other. They pretend that they are not paying attention to the rawhide bone and when the other dog tries to steal it they bounce.
I have never ever been a person who took any form of pleasure in someone's defeat or failure, regardless of how opposite they may have been from my beliefs and ideals. But I must say that I am completely orgasmic over the sinking of the HMS Pitheticfour (Captain Christian, Mr. Blowhard-Shootbad, Seiman Rove and Seiman Dullay) and all the rats and whores on board.
The truly sad part is the dear price we and our children of several generations will all pay for the murder, rape and pillaging of lands and people by these Pirates of Pissants!!!

Not true. A lot of them have. Please don't downplay their feelings now. Bush never had the support for war until the media banged the drums so loudly that war was all some heard.

I wonder if America's psyche hasn't been twisted by all the crime fighting TV shows and war movie heroics, where the "good guys" win out in the end by saving the little girl (or the world) at the last possible moment from the evil fanatics (usually fitting some xenophobic model) and they then think the real world is like that.
Some CSI group or some Special Forces will thwart the enemy and save the day, when in fact, the enemy was us (or at least the Goopers among us).
Hey Atrios,
How much is a decent troll going for these days?

The "good guys" usually have to bend the rules a little and maybe kill a few people to get the job done, too. Actually, the "good guys" have gotten a lot less good during the Bush II era (24, The Shield, buncha other stuff I never watch).
Dogs are actually human beings, stripped of most of the nonsense.
Cats on the other hand, are an entirely discrete thing. I don't understand cats. I do, without any effort at all, understand dogs.
Dogs know things. They don't tell you about it, but they know things. Cats pretend to know things but in fact have to google them and then discuss them among themselves.

You don't have to. Then again, I used to like The Three Stooges, and now they're boring.
"yes cog you really showed us! by not answering a single argument or making one yourself or posting a link to prove your moronic assertions - but pretending that you needed our money to enlist - boy you showed us! lol"
This is Eschaton, since when do I need to prove anything. What I have posted on here is readily available online, go find it yourself.
Never said I was going to enlist. But another moonbat said he wanted to send me to Iraq, so I gave him another option.
"by the by did you check out that link I posted: Honor the fallen? You honor them by sitting at your keyboard and not giving a whit about any of them"
Huh? Stop projecting. You have no idea what you are talking about and by making up shiot you are embarassing yourself. Not as much as Duncan comparing the US military to those of Hitler and Stalin, but close.
"only your unwavering adoration for herr leader" - swampy mcfeverish
Bush is a moron, and I am a Democrat, so time to bail out on those assumptions before you make a fool out of yourself. Too late.
There are people who can oppose Bush, and how he has conducted this war responsibly based on facts. Not the mischaracterizations, distortions and false allusions that are the norm from Atrios.
When you stoop to that level, you discredit honest criticisms that have yet to be addressed by this administration.
I think 24's entire purpose has become to mainstream torture as an acceptable information-gathering tool. Also the word "nukular".

Making Arnold Schwartzenegger a governor seemed to be the perverse manifestion of this Hero Worship complex that the American people, I suspect, suffer from.
Arnold was a bad actor as an actor and he's a bad actor as a governor.
All his heroic scripts notwithstanding.....

Yes yes yes.
He's just a vile specimen. He thinks that neurotically obsessing about all his impulses grants him carte blanche to act on them. It's pathetic, narcissistic, and uninteresting.
The thing about Billy Crystal is he did these three imitations that were truly brilliant, and he did interesting work on a show called Soap as one of the first openly homosexual TV characters. And then he conciously decided to never be remotely funny ever again.
He was also hysterically funny in the early SNL days. Just remember friends, it is better to look good, than to feel good. Ouch, I hate it when that happens.
Or maybe natural weedy things had something to do with how much I laughed.
He thinks that neurotically obsessing about all his impulses grants him carte blanche to act on them. It's pathetic, narcissistic, and uninteresting.
Well, I'll agree with the last two.
But I guess I'll be willing to watch his movies as long as he's not in them, and I haven't done that.
Never said I was going to enlist.
That's right, coward. Why?
Woody Allen is one sick bastard.
His pedophilia didn't just stop at teen-age step-daughters. The court evidence in the custody fight he had with Mia Farrow revealed his obsessions with female toddlers...
Never said I was going to enlist.
That's right, coward. Why?
But somehow *we're* the ones copping out and making excuses...
Rage Time, I linked to the first two verses you composed on my blog. The idea is to start a poetry slam in the comments. Thanks.
Don't ever expect logic, compassion or courage from a rightwinger.
It's so rare with them that I suspect these characteristics are congenital omissions.
"That's right, coward. Why?"
Why do you care. This is Eschaton where you fling shit at people who disagree with you.
Feel free to tell me why I am a coward again. I want to see how many logical fallacies you can include in one post.
"You don't post these links because they're not reputable."
Another poster on here easily found one study in military sales to Iraq I referenced. Not that hard. Do a little research. You don't need me to hold your hand.
"*we're* the ones copping out and making excuses...""
Yes. First you make an incorrect assertion that I was going to enlist, then you make all manner of claims why you can't kick down. But you are on my side, lol.
As I said earlier, it was put up or shut up. Unfortunately, you did neither.
My pleasure, Echidne. Thank you so much.
I love the idea of a slam.
Pat Tillman was killed in a fragging incident, not "friendly fire".
The Pentagon's Office of Special Plans had to silence Tillman before he returned to the United States. If they hadn't they would not have been able to produce enough pro-Bush propaganda to prevent a Kerry landslide once people learned how Tillman actually felt about Bush and the illegal Iraq war.
He was killed by a three-shot cluster to the forehead. His murderer(s) were looking into his eyes when they killed him. They burned his uniform and his body armor and his journals disappeared.
Pat Tillman's death = murder
Malcolmjames = nutjob.
