Brave wife of slain Navy Seal hero attacked for having emotions

Liberal or conservative - we can all agree that this woman is brave and smart, and that her husband is a hero. Let's not use this as a political talking point, but some people are criticizing her and politicizing this. Bill Maher and Michael Moore are two examples: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/03/01/bill-maher-michael-moore-blast-trump-for-using-navy-seal-widow-as-a-prop.html God bless Ryan Owen and his family.

      • I love Bill Maher. His comments are usually right on point and awesome. He always gives his complete honest opinion no matter what. That's the beauty of free speech and he uses it well. Everyone loved the new trump that was seen during the speech. When asked about he said I wish TelePrompTer Trump was the same as the real Donald trump. What a perfect comment.

        • Idk who she is but I don't see how brave and smart are proven by having your husband sent to his death by our government. Dedicated, strong willed, sacrifice for the country, etc sure but brave and smart... don't really see it. Didn't click your links so maybe that's it but oh well

            I'm probably treading into dangerous waters here, but as a moderate democrat, I thought his speech was well delivered and on message. I can't say that I agreed entirely with that message, but honestly that's somewhat irrelevant. As a hopeful skeptic, I felt like something was much different about his tone this time and I don't think I'm the only Dem that noticed it. I don't expect to agree with all of his plans, but I'm hopeful that both sides of the argument will have a clear voice. By the way, regardless of what Bill Maher or Michael Moore say, the tribute to Senior Chief Ryan Owens and his wife was amazing. Perhaps I am choosing to take this gesture at face value, but so be it.

            • He gave the go ahead for his death while eating dinner, blamed it on the generals, hides behind immortalizing the guy, uses it for a standing ovation. Sad.

                  • Sorry Doob, I felt compelled to respond again. Looks like liberals on here are just as morally bankrupt here then the conservatives on the issue of illegals. Except they are petty. They are honoring a wife of a fallen U.S. Navy Seal and they gave nearly 2 minutes of just clapping and honoring her in the capital of our nation. What does the left leaning people do here? The spit on his memory, you call her a fool, tool, and other disrespectful terms, some of you just out right disrespect our military calling them morons for just signing up and putting themselves in harms way to protect our country. And we have the democrats who initially did stand and clap but they quickly sat through the rest of the clapping. You know who didn't? Donald Trump, they rather not give Trump any kind of credit to even honor this fallen soldiers wife. That's petty You people are so pissed off that the golden crone was beat out of the election, you people keep bitch and moan like she can still be made president. It over, he is president. From the bottom of my heart I tell you this. [quote]-blam!- you, suck up the fact you lost the election[/quote]

                      • I don't blame them for saying he simply used her. Politics are so corrupt and dirty they'll use anything to gain support. Could he have been genuine? Maybe. But could he have just used her? Also maybe. Appealing to emotions is a very easy way to get people on your side.

                      • If Obama did this the politically correct sheep would call him a nice and honourable man. The media just tries to demonize Trump every way they can.

                        • I pity her. People applauded for the "justification" of the murder of this true American hero. Trump killed him. The plan may have been made during the Obama administration, but it was never executed because [u]it was too risky and flawed.[/u] But, Trump being the idiot he is, probably got convinced by one of his warmonger generals to go through with it. Because of [u]his[/u] failure as the leader of the military, an American was killed along with 30 civilians including an 8 year old girl. I respect the father for not wanting to meet Trump. I wouldn't want to meet the man in charge of my sons life and who ended up getting him killed in a pointless and stupid operation. Conservatives got all mad at Hillary for "not taking American lives seriousely" with Benghazi. Lol, you think Trump cares about American lives? He was tweeting during the operation.
