My brother and I saw The Tillman Story and it is without a doubt one of the most emotionally moving movies, documentary or whatever you want to call it that has hit the big screen. From realizing how great of a person and a man Pat Tillman really was to realizing how much our government are a bunch of scum bags, this 94 minute film hit one way out of the park. The film describes what really happened to Pat Tillman and his death and the government cover up for its own personal gain. And it's intriguing all 94 minutes. Your heart just feels so sad for the Tillman family, especially his mother because all they want to know is how their son died and why did the government cover up his death? And why did they use their sons death as a marketing plow for the war when Pat himself didn't want that? This film really makes you want to take a bat to the leaders of our country. These pieces of garbage sit there in Washington with their nice suits on and play with the Americans emotions like waiving bacon in front of a dog. They only care for themselves. Pat Tillman gave his life for this country and those chicken shits treated him and his family like exactly that. And when those cowards were backed into a corner, they showed their true colors as true pussies! And I kept telling myself, "America was built on being tough and being loyal to your neighbor, and these now are the sons of bitches running our country?" What is even worse is that the other soldiers who were there during the whole situation and who know the true story of what happened were told that if they did tell the true story of what happened, their careers would be over. And even worse, Pats brother was in the second convoy in the canyon and didn't realize what had happened and Corporal Bear, who was good friends with the Tillman brothers, was told not to tell Kevin Tillman about Pat's death. Corporal Bear was on the plane trip home with Kevin and Pats casket and he said that he didn't say but 2 words to Kevin the whole way home. How incredible! Men who are giving their whole lives are commanded to not tell the truth! They get treated like puppets. The exact thing we are fighting to change. How sad. And the Tillman's trusted the government. We all trust the government. Should we though? The Tillman Story really opened my eyes to a lot of things. Definitly a must see movie.

Tillman Steel Webster
At 6:38 p.m., after only 7 hours of labor, Laura gave birth to our 1st child, Tillman Steel. He was 7 lbs., 14 ounces and 19 inches long. A true stud!Even more of a warrior was Laura. We went into the hospital at 9 am and she got an epaderal at 11 am. They uped her patosin and about 4 oclock, she was rockin and rollin with major contractions. She complained that her vaginal area was really hurting so they up her pain medicine more. But nothin. The contractions kept coming and Laura felt every last one of them. Yet, she did not scream or complain, she kept fighting through it. She entered the hospital dialated to a 3. By 4:30, she was at an 8. By 5:30, she was at a ten! And the epaderal still wasn't working. The nurse we had asked Laura if she just wanted to start pushing so she did. The nurse who gives the epaderal and the nurse who was helping us were so sad for Laura because of all the pain she was going through. She still soldiered on. At 6:38 and no epaderal, Tillman Steel bust on the seen with blonde hair and big balls. It was incredible. All the nurses were in shock and awe of the griddyness of what Laura had just accomplished. I just cried at it all. I couldn't believe what I had behald right in front of my eyes.
We named him Tillman after Pat Tillman. We wanted a name that sympolized toughness and honor, loyalty and hard work. Pat gave hope to all that were around him. He overachieved and wanted more. Undersized and under estimated, he overcame with dedication and a desire to prove that he could.
As we thought of middlenames, we had a hard time putting a nice solid combo together with Tillman. We thought one of the great qualities in life that we want our son to have is toughness. Well, Steel is pretty dang tough. Tillman Steel! That's a man's name. A name, that if at school, you wouldn't want to mess with a kid named Tillman Steel.
I sat back and watched it all. I was the 1st one to see and touch Tillman while he was crowning. I was happier than a puppy with 2 pedders when I saw him. Laura, you truly are amazing. I love you with a love that can not be describe. You are my everything. Please don't get too mad at me when I am being a bung hole. I am only being a bung hole because I love you so.....I know, lame excuse but you truly have my heart forever. Thank you for being a rock today. I love you and will forever.
