I usually shy from posting politically-charged topics, but in this case I am willing to make an exception. Now I don’t necessarily believe Pat Tillman is the superhero that some are making him out to be (hundreds of other lesser-known Americans have also paid the ultimate price), but regardless of what you think of the conflict in Iraq you have to admire a man who would leave behind a lucrative career in the NFL to pursue a career in the military. I find it hard to believe that a newspaper would actually publish this hateful garbage.
