CBS) Pat Tillman was a heroic face of the war on terror - an NFL star who left behind a $3.6 million contract and his new wife to fight for his country after the attacks of Sept. 11. When he died in Afghanistan on April 22, 2004, the Army told his family he'd been killed by enemy fire after courageously charging up a hill to protect his fellow Army Rangers.

But as Katie Couric reports, that story didn't hold up. He had really been killed by friendly fire, shot accidentally by his fellow soldiers.

For the past four years, his family, led by his mother Mary, has been searching for answers about what really happened, beginning the day she heard the news from Pat Tillman's wife Marie.


So why not this bracelet Senator McCain?? Not such a great political tool to use for your failing freefalling campaign?

Yet another glaring example just how Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld and McCain treat soldiers and their families.

Did the Tillman family ASK him to? Then he refused nothing,did he? Why do you LIE in your thread title?
One word: Desperation
The fact that Obama is touting the name of a soldier WHOSE FAMILY ASKED HIM NOT TO is going to cause damage,as it exposes the shallow political crassness of the Chicago Politico.
Meanwhile McCain PROUDLY wears the name of a soldier whose family ASKED HIM TO.
Get the difference? Probably not...

All the Tillman family wanted to know was the TRUTH which has taken years for the Bush administrion and McCain to stubburonly reveal.

McCain should have worn this Bracelet just to honor the man...But no he had to wear one and use it for a political tool.

Thank goodness he was forced to attend the debate so we could all witness that BS.

I see no connection between Tillman and McCain as the title of the thread implies. What is the point?

In any case if we are talking about using the military as props NOBODy beats the Dems. They hate the military and shove them in the closet in between elections.

Bullcrap. McCain had not one thing to do with the military brass' delay in revealing the details of Tillman's death
And,once again, McCain wears the name of a dead soldiers AT THE REQUEST OF HIS FAMILY.
Obama wears the name of a dead soldier AGAINST THE WISHES OF HIS FAMILY.
Now who "just had to wear a bracelet"?...it ain't rocket science.

Make up some more LIES about McCain/Tillman to try to draw attention from Obama exploiting a dead soldier AGAINST THE SOLDIER'S FAMILY'S WISHES. Nauseating.

Did you know the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary?

The "point" is nothing more than another DDA: Desperate Deflection Attempt by the Obamites.
Remember; they are starting to remember that JOE "Foot in Mouth" Biden is their Last Great Hope.
I'd be desperate,too.
