  • Much respect for this man.

  • a soldier with a brain; precious and so lacking in the world today. my comment (freedom of speech) is pending approval by whom? show ur pitiful selves. google???? pend this u cocksucking corporate hypocrites; this country was "founded" by slave-owners who wanted to be free. now, if that's a fact, tell me, am i lying?

  • So refreshing to hear the truth from a soldier,maybe they are not all brainwashed,maybe there is hope.What a brave soul,he must get an aweful lot of threats and hatemail,well for what it is worth,some stand with you,peace & love from Canada

  • @scatmanwfm its not so much about being a complacent drone,it about doing your job.

  • IMHO -- This man and those serving men and women like him are a thousand times more honorable & courageous than those who reluctantly follow orders to fight & kill on behalf of cynical, malicious US policies of Imperialist outreach & profits. Refusing illegal orders, resisting authoritarian abuse-of-power & voluntarily accepting the persecution, punishment, public condemnation & humiliation is a profound demonstration of moral integrity & honor.

  • spread this far and wide for Pat Tilman!

  • @spliffsperlunk most thought Obama would end the war............but you're right.i hope they give Ron Paul and peace a chance in 2012^

  • media is biased and vast - he is going to have to organize a powerful campaign

  • well said

  • see, there is hope for us. A man like this is a true hero. Let us all stand up for people like him. He is what we should all aspire to be.
