Freeptards are trashing Tillman family for exposing Dear Leader
Tillman's family is calling Dear Leader a "disgusting liar"

The Freeptards aren't happy that Tillman's family isn't willing to shut their mouths to protect the soft focus glowing image of their Dear (disgusting liar) Leader in their fucked up minds.

2. Probably THE most disgusting thing I've read over there:
Accidents happen in war, part of the "game". I was in the Army over 30 years ago. These parents have no clue. Their willingness to join the dark side show they aren't made of any "steel". I hope they are happy helping our enemies.

Fucking bastard.

3. This one says it's a "gift" to lie to families
What a bunch of wacktards

To: drt1
When a posthumous award is given to a fallen comrade, it is frequently written with your comrade’s loved ones in mind. If he died badly, through an accident or his own negligence, it does no good to relate this information to his family. In the past, a final gift to a fallen comrade has been a creatively written posthumous award that his family will cherish forever as they remember their son’s life and the precious gift of life he gave to his country.

May God damn forever the liberal leftist journalists who have robbed the Tillman family of this final gift their son’s comrades gave to them.

4. The last gift: A great, shining, final lie
to add to the great pile of lies that the war that killed their son was founded on. A final deception, because that's the way he would have wanted it.

How fucking twisted is that. These people are sick.

5. Michael Moore said it best:
"We live in fictitious times"

The difference between us and them is that they LIKE their little fictions.

24. Like them? They can't live without them!
Not to go off-topic here, but it's why conservatives can't live with the possibility that people are simply born gay. That would imply that God, the creator of all things, specifically created gays.

You will never ever convince these people otherwise.

Freepers start with the premise that George W. Bush and the Republicans are the only ones who love America and can protect America from its enemies. All facts must either fit that world view or be rejected -- violently if necessary.

10. Whaaaaa?
"May God damn forever the liberal leftist journalists who have robbed the Tillman family of this final gift their son’s comrades gave to them."

So-

The media accurately reports that the military lied about a soldier being killed by friendly fire instead of by the enemy,

the family of the soldier gets angry, wonders why they were lied to, and ends up blaming the man at the top,

and this guy blames the media for... well, I can't quite figure out what he's blaming the media for. Uncovering a lie told to a dead soldier's family?

What- this guy wouldn't care if someone lied to him about the death of one of his family members?

We need an exploding head smiley....

The Freepers are always saying that it's us lie-berals who can't deal with the facts. Now we're being damned for all eternity for talking about them?

9. O My God - I just read that freeper page!
The "liberal left media" is always the ultimate blame for anything. They are so convinced we are in a "righteous war" and that Tillman's death was collateral damage. His parents are now anti-American Commie-pinkos. I even noticed the obligatory gay put-down ("Are you eating a twinkie?"). I also took note of the bad grammar, the misspellings, and the incorrect puctuation.
Multiply the registered freepers x 500,000 and you have the US Republican party!

13. Quite the little cult
How else to explain such extraordinary, convoluted thinking? If I didn't know better, I would guess they were Satanists as they appear to worship deception.

29. Uhhhhhhhhh keep listening to that little voice in your head ....
and pass this on to a few freepers if ya wanna .....

"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." John 8:44 Peace. :)

14. These people really are something...
...always putting words into the mouths of the dead and those who can no longer speak for themselves: Everyone who died on 9/11, Nick Berg, Terri Schiavo, Pat Tillman, and on and on. Always looking to exploit and "claim" these safely dead and silent folks for the warped glory of their "leader." Always trying to appropriate the memory of these people to prop up the most disgusting and morally bankrupt causes.

Then, when the people who loved and best knew the dead speak out about how the memories of their loved ones are being twisted, these rightwing scum are so incensed that anyone would interfere with their graverobbing that they roll out the slander, libel, and death threats.

Pack of bloodsoaked ghouls.

20. If There Really Was a Liberal Media
These post from FREEK-Republic would be broadcast 24/7 on CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, and plastered in 3 inch bold font on every paper in the nation!!

It's time that America saw these crazy sick people, that are currently in charge of all branches of the government, for what they really are.

I want every American to know that when you vote for a Republican, you are pissing on the grave of Pat Tillman and his family.

26. It really is disgusting
They're all chickenshit cowards. I remember reading Nick Berg's father was at the anti-Bush counter-inaugration and he was arrested for speaking out! :crazy: Of course they couldn't have him talking to their little sheeple. These people so piss me off.

33. HEAR HEAR CRANKIE!!!
I couldn't have said it more succinctly. The old "Rally-Round-a-dead-person" technique is a time honored classic of tyrannies throughout history. This bunch have surpassed their predecessors by instantly creating a mythos around their "chosen ones" as soon as one of them realizes, "Hey! This can be politically useful!" I personally can't think of too many historical instances where the word of those who personally knew and loved someone counted for absolutely nothing. The usual progression is something like this, "Hey everyone, for the next month, we're all gonna scream at the top of our lungs about _________ (insert exploited individual du jour), and not let anyone bring up anything else. Got it?" Anyone who dares question the fable is attacked in any possible manner, rational or otherwise. Eventually, the object of the Right's constant harping is subsumed, and some other poor soul is thrust into their opportunistic spotlight. A vicious cycle, to be sure, but one day it will certainly backfire. It almost did with Terri Schiavo. The breaking point will be soon enough, I think.

18. They can only "support the troops" in the abstract aggregate.
Supporting one serviceman or his family is out of the scope of their distorted little minds.

19. The nerve of this family wanting to know the truth about son's death.
:sarcasm: The Tillmans should be proud that Mr. Boosh* allowed their son to die with integrity and honor, killed by his own troops, not by some furin' entity. They should be proud that our government USED HIM to forward their propaganda for an illegal war against a sovereign nation that did not attack our nation. They should be proud that OUR LEADERS not only used their son, but then lied to them about how he died. These Tillman folks have a lot to be proud of, our government killed then exploited their son instead of someone else's child. May the souls of our government officials rot in hell (no sarcasm whatsoever).

30. It also helped
that Pat Tillman was a high profile soldier than your average soldier. Most of your average soldiers don't have the opportunity to turn down a pro football contract that paid millions to go serve in the Army.

21. Blech! I hate going to the place that shall not be named.
I feel so dirty after that. Anyhow, I have nothing more to say except that those people are so dilusional. They simply can not live with the idea that good soldiers are dying needless deaths. Perhaps, if the troops in Afghanistan were not so thinly spread because more troops are too busy in Iraq avoiding IEDs, there would have been enough coordination of activities to avoid the Tillman death.

22. OK! Who is Fred Furney???? This is GREAT
:rofl:

Someone got to the freepers, but his post was pulled. Here it is for you to enjoy. Some Freeper posted the original post in his response. I especially love the Buffy and Biff part. So I want to know...Which DU'er is Fred Furney?

:popcorn:

A "Let's get Medieval on this troll" ping.

Troll named "Fred Furney" at post 39 in this trhead says this crap:

"Oh silly freepers. Cowardly stooges! Why not call 1-800-GO-ARMY and go over and find out if Iraq or Afghanistan really is like a trip to Branson, Missouri. Or better yet! Sign up your kids, Buffy and Biff, for a tour. Maybe they'll come back in a pine box. Do you idiots really believe this war is about freedom or the ability for Cheney's friends to gouge you whilst you will up your SUV's.

Ya wimpy turds!"

31. I followed the link, got as far as the 4th comment
("I wouldn't buy some jackass attorney's spin on things."), and could go no further... it's like venomous mind pollution. Calling Pat Tillman's father "some jackass attorney"?!?!?!? How DARE they?!?!?!? How fucking DARE they?!?!?!? Mr Tillman Sr. spoke the truth and these lowlife bottom feeders have the unmitigated gall to make such a comment? What does it take to get the blinders off these idiots?

Why the bloody hell is the military having such recruitment problems when there are so many Dear (disgusting liar) Leader supporters (59 million, according to the 2004 'election')? Why the bloody hell don't they get their asses to the nearest recruitment office and sacrifice their own lives for this psychopathic Dear (disgusting liar) Leader's lies? Why the bloody hell are they sitting at their computers judging these parents who have lost their son to this fucking psychopathic Dear Leader's lies?

How fucking bloody hell DARE they?!?!?!?

And when the bloody hell does the war crimes trial against Dear Leader start?
