Our military is such an embarrassment. I never dreamt that one day I’d have zero confidence in their ability to protect us and win a war


I don't know how it works but I think there are lots of us who would pick up a weapon in defense of this nation. Just move the pussies to the side and let us do what we were trained to do

Worse than that. They'll join and then be medically discharged with a big fat VA check for the rest of their lives.

No they won't.

Anniston PD showed up to one of out iron bowl parties, the year caddilac ran back the opening kickoff.

They came inside to basically say they didnt care we were partying but to keep it down. One of them nudged the desk and the screen saver went off and goes " get the frick down off of my obstacle!!!" Scared the shite out of both of them.

I mean to be honest I don't think children hearing bad words is that big of a deal. But if a parent is concerned about their children hearing words they probably already use with friends, then they are bad for taking their kids to a rally targeted at 18+ adults.

Well he didn't do much to reverse it when president. Biden just picked up where Obama left off

I don't want to justify the actions of my fellow comrades in arms, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to show clips from a movie depicting a war that the United States lost. Sure...the Marines were abused and toughened up by their drill instructor in boot, but what did that get them but a check mark in the L column?

Dude, where we are now at this time???? There is simply reality or there are unicorns and rainbows. Which side are you on?

I was around language like that as a kid by my WW2 Veteran Grandfathers who lived through that Hell.


I am solidly on the side of Trump winning. My combat veteran WWII father would have had the same reaction that I did: it was bad judgment to illustrate the point by using movie clips (fiction) that contained the word "fricking."

As RollTide pointed out above, my father also would have been disappointed that the campaign we supported used a clip from a movie about a poorly executed "conflict" that America lost. He thought the Vietnam War was unconstitutional and a tragic and disgraceful waste of lives.

Why not use clips from Private Ryan or other WWII movies...or training films from before the military was infected with the woke virus?

Because they have parents who can explain the context and that as a child, they are not to use thar language.

Stupid soy boy


Is your brain addled? Do you need a chart to get dressed in the morning? The answer as to WHY to expose children to the word "fricking" at a presidential campaign event is "because they have good parents"?

You don't seem capable of grasping the distinction, but you're just citing a mitigating factor ("it's not a big deal") rather than answering the question. The campaign had limitless ways to illustrate the point that our military used to be more focused on training for combat. My opinion is that they made a poor choice, because they unnecessarily used the word "fricking" in a public event where children are present.

This wasn't just a slip of the tongue. Several staff people were involved in making the decision. Would you choose to use the word "fricking" in front of other people's children? Why should a presidential campaign do that?

I'm not running for president. Plus, they wouldn't vote for me if I were. I taught them well enough to vote for Trump even if his campaign made a slight error.

"Rachel" Levine is not a member of the US military. It's the head of the US Public Health Service, but those other freaks should be unceremoniously drummed out of the service.

My Dad, RIP, retire as a Major in the Marines. He went through officer candidate school when is was not unusual for 1 or 2 guys to die in the training.

I have to say, I am happy that he does not have to witness what has happened to his beloved Corp.
