1. The only good part of last night's show nt

5. agreed

although enjoyed the parody skit, the show discussion even seemed to frustrate Maher who was off his game and let his guest take individual anecdotes and paint them as typical & the norm

Breitbart already got taken to task by newbies at New Left Media, so was surprised Maher let him go unchallenged as much as he did

2. Wow, I had missed the first half of Maher last night, so I didn't see Tillman.

He was terrific. I LOVE the guy, too.

3. that is one incredible and courageous family...

It pains me to contemplate what kind of hate mail they have received from Freeper, "relgious" fundies and teabagger types...

All I can say is I am extremely appreciative to have such an example to point at, in stark contrast to the cowardice that so many public "leaders" display today.

4. I agree

Agree. Last night's show was weak. How come Seth Macfarlane hardly spoke? He is a smart guy and usually talkative but he seemed to take about half the show before he warmed up. Perhaps having 2 nuts on with him and Bill made him keep quiet.

6. At the beginning there,

Bill seemed to be implying, and looking for confirmation from Richard, that there was more to this incident than simply a friendly fire incident, in other words, that Pat had intentionally been assassinated. K&R

7. In the movie

"The Pat Tillman Story" Pat Tillman was a very principled and courageous man. He continued fighting after he found out the Iraq war was a sham, killing a lot of innocent Iraqis as well as his fellow soldiers. He stayed fighting and returned after his first leave because he couldn't abandon his fellow soldiers. He must have spoken out about the sham of the war to his higher ups, followed up by an order to kill/assassinate him from the highest level (the WH) and General McChrystal, supposedly, signed the order. At least, this is my own conclusion from seeing the movie.
