That does not make him any less of a tool. If his rant was supporting the President or the military....the lefties would not have bought it and spread it throughout the media. Of course he is their tool.

Of course not. What does recognizing a soldier have to do with the right?...Unless, of course, you are somehow making a point that all soldiers represent the right...because otherwise he would be a yellow protestor instead of a brave soldier. If that same soldier was selling articles pushing the republican party...it might be different.

Just through observation. I work daily with folks that have spent a heck of a lot more time at ar than he. I know hundreds, if not thousands of military members. I have not once heard a single remark that resembled his. If there were more with that opinion, we would see a lot more articles like his and a lot more GIs would be in Canada. He has every right to his opinion and every right to sell it to the highest bidder, but he is clearly a minority in the military and has broken with his brothers for a little fame and a few pieces of silver.
Tillman was only in the service for a brief time and saw very little action. His brother died...not because the administration screwed up...but because...even though his intentions were good, he screwed up (assuming the article posted here that was written by a reported witness was correct). That does not make him any more or less heroic than any of the guys who have served that were not killed...
