Pat Tillman's mother spoke with Action News Anchor Robbie Timmons today, while on a book tour for "Boots On The Ground By Dusk."
Mark subs for Rush at times and he is on mornings at WBAP in Dallas.
This woman is another Cindy Shehan without the stupidity.
Has Code Stink got a hold of her yet?
Comment:
I don't know but Mark Davis got so angry he just about lost it when she started running down our government, military and Bush.
He told her that she would hate Bush even if he brought Pat back to life.
Is one really supposed to believe that Pat Tillman liked the writings of someone as revoltin' as Naom Chomsky?
The bitter family of Pat Tillman made up these stories because of Pat's death by friendly fire.
Another Mama Ghoul.

According to Rangers who were with him in Iraq, he had apparently turned against the Iraq portion of the WOT. All I can say about that is he earned the right to his opinion, and I don’t have to agree with him to respect that. As for his family...I’d hate to see what my mental state would be if I had to go through what they’ve been through, so I’m inclined to give them a lot of leeway. JMHO.
Okay! I believe him /sarc
Pat Tillman isn't alive to confirm any of this. I read "The Nation" magazine about Pat Tillman's alleged change of heart. Somehow I can't picture Pat Tillman looking from Afghanistan at bombing in Iraq and saying, this war is so f'nk illegal. I think Pat Tillman was far more intelligent than to use such verbiage.
Apparently, the Tillman family lost their patriotism when Pat was killed. If all Americans were like this, we wouldn’t be fighting any wars and would still be under control of the English crown.
Death by friendly fire is not pretty (no deaths in war are pretty), but is sometimes inevitable. It was a mistake, and the soldiers involved didn’t immediately acknowledge the mistake. But the facts are out now and Mrs. Tillman’s crusade against the Bush Administration and the Pentagon is unjustified.
She sullies her son’s memory with her Leftist extremism.
I haven’t had the opportunity to hear what Pat’s mother had to say but I believe I have a pretty good read on Pat’s character. Simply put, Pat was the rarest of human beings. I plan to contact the Pat Tillman run by his brother run by his brother to order books and tapes for nieces and nephews. Just a handful of Americans like Pat could make a significant difference in our society - for the better. In fact, in his death, he has inspired generations of Americans. I’m in awe how fully he lived his life, took on all challenges with a cheerful attitude and most important was the lasting impression he left on people who speak in reverential terms of Pat.
From what I hear, I’m sure I would vehemently disagree with his mother but that is countered by the unimaginable PAIN she must be experiencing and that she had a significant
influence in the type of person that Pat turned out to be.
