6. "All the Generals were lying"
I remember those hearings. To watch Rumsfeld and his Generals squirm as they tried to excuse their actions, one after the other, was eye-opening. Not so much for those of us who never believed all the other lies, but for those who realized for the first time how willing the government is to lie even about war, or a dead soldier, to the American people.

I hope this documentary gets wide circulation. They 'lied to the wrong family'. The Tillman family could have gone along with the story and accepted the phony accolades. Some families would have, but they were honest people and did not want their son used as a prop for politicians.
