So you equate becoming a Vice President with Pat Tillman's situation?
I wonder if Pat Tillman's parents feel the same way??
I don't.
I don't see Dick Cheney and G W Bush laying it on the line. I see them
telling guys to lay it on the line for him. What do they lose if 10,000
guys get shot up in Iraq?
Credibility and the next election.
Big difference.
