Pat Tillman case is going to even further damage Bush administration.

Army medical examiners were suspicious about the close proximity of the three bullet holes in Pat Tillman's forehead and tried without success to get authorities to investigate whether the former NFL player's death amounted to a crime, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

The doctors -- whose names were blacked out -- said that the bullet holes were so close together that it appeared the Army Ranger was cut down by an M-16 fired from a mere 10 yards or so away.

"The medical evidence did not match up with the, with the scenario as described," a doctor who examined Tillman's body after he was killed on the battlefield in Afghanistan in 2004 told investigators.

So this incident has gone from a brave warriors death at the hands of the enemy, to an accidental friendly fire incident, and now may be a case of murder at the hands of his fellow soldiers.

I think if this demonstrates anything, it demonstrates that this administration and Pentagon have been deceitful and dishonest with the American people since the very beginning.

All of this happened before the war in Iraq became the quagmire that it is today. So just like the Jessica Lynch story our government told us a fairy tale to keep our support of a situation that was destined to go bad.
