20. They need to ask Senior Chief White (Navy Seal) who gave the bogus eulogy.
to jog his memory as to who read the "narrative" that he gave at the ceremony to him ... over the phone when he called Tillman's Unit in Afghanistan. Senior Chief White should be able to recall talking to SOMEBODY during that PhoneCon?!?

Someone needs to follow up with Senior Chief White in more detail as to how he gleaned this bogus eulogy that he read at the Ceremony.

They need to ask that question again. He had to remember speaking to someone. Yes?

38. Yes, when he made such an important call, I'm hoping he could remember someone's name.
I guess not. However, when I was in the military and calling overseas, I always extracted (and wrote down for future need) the name of the person I talked with. Perhaps I'm overly suspicious, but it just doesn't sit right with me. :shrug:

51. Yes, Conduct Unbecoming an Officer. The Colonel who made these disparaging statements
about deceased Corporal Tillman and his entire family should be out of the Army ... at the least. Theoretically he could be charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice ... but not in Bush-World. :( :thumbsdown:

I'm guessing that about all we'll see about it in terms of coverage is one 2am re-run on CSPAN. :grr:

56. FOUND A LINK FOR THE "WORM DIRT" COMMENT:
http://brentrasmussen.com/log/node/1071

Lt. Col. Ralph Kauzlarich , now a battalion commanding officer at Fort Riley in Kansas, further suggested the Tillman family's unhappiness with the findings of past investigations might be because of the absence of a Christian faith in their lives.

In an interview with ESPN.com, Kauzlarich said: "When you die, I mean, there is supposedly a better life, right? Well, if you are an atheist and you don't believe in anything, if you die, what is there to go to? Nothing. You are worm dirt. So for their son to die for nothing, and now he is no more — that is pretty hard to get your head around that. So I don't know how an atheist thinks. I can only imagine that that would be pretty tough."
