When every one of your neighbors says that their neighbor is a crazy psycho loon....do you look in the mirror or pretend it's another neighbor they are talking about?

I mean, since you fricks now have the Presidency, house & senate there really aren’t any excuses, right ?


Math must be hard for you goose-steppers. 51 does not = 60.

In short, you leftists are still holding up progress.

As for leaving the country, just say that you want a never-ending supply of “lady-boys.”

Nobody believes that you moved because of politics.

Since you seem to be an expert. How many soldiers, marines, and airmen, and do we need to adequately defend America's interests? I guess we can include the semen as well!


Based on your response, I would guess our opinions on what constitutes "America's interests" differ significantly.

I don't personally think we need 750 military bases in 80 countries around the world.

You may think "America's interests" include being world policeman and providing economic support to countries around the globe. I disagree.

So am I correct that your idea is to get rid of everyone in the military who isn't a PT dog?


Then why are they going through basic training to begin with?

Why do secretaries and file clerks need to be in the military at all?

Just hire civilians.

A fellow retiree told me that exact thing a few weeks ago. At least he was in the Army and actually did something. Most Airmen haven't done anything to deserve VA disability.

Plus the military owns you until your hitch is up. If you have been enjoying chilling on Makaha Beach on the weekends while being a "secretary" at Schofield Barracks or Wheeler and the Army decides they need another secretary at Fort Sill they don't ask nicely they just PCS your arse to OK and you can spend your weekends at the Texas Road House in lovely downtown Lawton.

The control the military has is exponentially higher than the private world. Try walking up to your company commander and giving your notice and see how that goes. I have seen guys that wanted out enough they ate a Big Chicken Dinner just to get separated.

It needs to double that at least. War with China is coming. It might be 2026, it might be 2036, but it's coming. We need as many capable, well trained soldiers in all areas. Did you know that we have a perfect record in war games with China? We've lost every single time. Something needs to be done quick. Just one example of our inadequacy is that China builds 1000 ships to every 1 the US produces. By God, do something!
