MSNBC’s little watched Keith Blabbermouth feels like Pat Tillman, the NFL player who retired so he could serve his country in Afghanistan, was whacked by Bu$hitler McRummyburton for…supporting Kerry? As Hot Air’s Allahpundit notes:
Would the president have had one of his own men murdered to prevent a meeting with Noam Chomsky? That’s a given in Olbyworld. But would he have sent the military to do it knowing that the revelation of this murderous order from on high by any of the co-conspirators along the chain of command would have meant his certain impeachment and possible/entirely justifiable trial for murder? But of course. To prevent a Pat Tillman/Waffles photo op? If Bush could pull off 9/11, how hard could something like this be?
Anything for ratings, I guess…which means efforts like this are failing, since he still has no ratings.
I think that is streching beyond recognition what Keith actually said.

Fortunately, AC, I’ve included links so people can check it out for themselves and make up their own minds, and I encourage them to do so.

He doesn’t mention anything about Bush sending the military to “kill” Tillman. The dicussion is about the cover-up over Tillman’s death. He doesn’t allege Bush or Cheney had an issue with Tillman and decided to whack him. He doesn’t even go in that direction. We are sure there was a cover-up. I was in school when Tillman was killed.. when the media was using him as a martyr. President Bush discussed Tillman’s leave from the NFL and “heroic” death in Afghanistan right up till it was discovered that he may have been killed by friendly fire.
Your statement is very misleading to those who don’t take enough time to watch the discussion.

PB, the name of Olby’s segment is “Motive for Murder”. There’s no misleading about it. Besides, the link I provided has the video where folks can make their own determination.

Motive for Murder is the name of one of the graphics in the piece not the name of the segment. The name of the segment reads Bush’s Casualties and well he is responsible for the deaths of soldiers he puts in harms way. Graphics are usually made to grab attention and if you are putting your whole argument on the title of a graphic then it is useless to even debate you about the video.
