Propaganda Tool Sarah Palin Uses Pat Tillman to Glorify War
The problem is, Pat Tillman did not believe in God and nor does his family. His brother, Richard, expressed his disgust for people talking about God at Pat’s funeral on Bill Maher’s show just weeks ago. And Pat Tillman did not want to be used as a political weapon and most certainly not as war propaganda. His death was covered up by our military and made to look like Tillman had died “fighting for our country,” when in fact he had been killed by friendly fire.

13. I would vote on Pat's mom doing this herself.
Went to see the Tillman Story ~~ Mrs. Tillman is something else. She does not take BS and she def kicks butt.

6. Were their deaths covered up
so that they may be used for propaganda purposes?

Making excuses for behavior like that is reprehensible.

8. Oops
I missed the part where I was making excuses for their behavior. Maybe you could point it out for me.

Thanks! :thumbsup:

5. Does she really want to take on the Tillman family?
Pat Tillman's mother has spent the last several YEARS compiling information on his case, fighting the government to find out exactly what happened to him and never, ever, ever giving up. Sarah Palin isn't even fit to be in the same room with her.

Palin is an idiot if she thinks she'll get out of this one unscathed.

Pat Tillman is a hero, and not for the reasons Palin believes. He and his family demonstrate what it is to stick to your principles and to never back down. Failin' has bit off more than she can chew.

Go get her, Mrs. Tillman.

10. They don't give a shit
As Ann Coulter said "It's our right as Republicans to use the War on Terror as a tool."
