One of the nastiest traits of Bush and his cronies is cynically using the death and/or capture of brave American soldiers for partisan political purposes -- and they don't care if it means lying to the soldier's family and friends to do it. They did it with Jessica Lynch and they did it again with Cpl. Pat Tillman, the former pro football player who died from friendly fire. The military lied about that to his family and the country to encourage support for Bush's unnecessary war and push recruitment. An Army investigation determined they knew within days how Tillman died but kept it a secret and shredded evidence. Still, no coverup here. Really? The Pentagon is now investigating that investigation. Don't you hate it when facts keep coming out?
