The President’s schedule for yesterday.
Note that at 4:45 pm, the president found time to meet with the Vice President and the Secretary of Defense, but none of them faced the American people and more importantly the troops, to speak about a 2-star general being killed in Afghanistan. Cowards!
Nothing is so good for the morale of the troops as occasionally to see a dead general.

(I noticed yesterday, FOX gave eight hours coverage to this one casualty. CNN twelve.
Tillman did get mentioned on each of the channels.
The “General” … as I understand … was serving his First Combat Assignment in his THIRTYFOUR-YEARS Career.
Oh well.
