  1. Kind of weird that the CJCS would straight up reject the policy of the President re: Afghanistan redeployment. Then again, it's kind of weird that Trump announces defense policy on Twitter.
  2. Ah, but therein lies the rub.
  3. The powerful don’t pay for crime. C’mon man. That’s politics 101.
  4. T-38C? Not a fighter I guess.
  5. I don't think victim "crap" runs rampant on here. Sure, people complain about the promotion process, planning Christmas parties, and stuff like that, but that's just good, old-fashioned sport bitching. Maybe you're just having a bad day, but I think you probably need to take a step back and take a look in the mirror. Can we not have a reasonable discussion about how some people may have a different experience than you? If this makes you defensive, it is probably because it touches a specific nerve inside you. I mean, we all believe readily that some commanders play favorites. Is it that much of a stretch to believe that other commanders play "least favorites"?
  6. Being proficient with automation is a critical pilot skill. Being proficient with hand-eyeball flying is a critical pilot skill. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
  7. When did I sign up for Stats 221? 🤔😃
  8. This gave me a good laugh....I went into O-5 thinking responsibility would increase. I’ve not had less responsibilities since I was a captain. Being off the command track as an O-5 is magical.
  9. Good bot.
  10. The one that died of brain cancer? Yeah, Trump didn't win that one either. For clarity: Beau Biden: Army National Guard, died of brain cancer. All around good guy from what I can tell. Hunter Biden: Navy Reserve, discharged due to positive drug test, dated his brother's widow, shady ties to Ukraine.
  11. This was Joe's most brilliant re-attack of the night. Who can't sympathize with a man with a son with a drug problem? Joe's response completely took the air out of the Russian angle of attack Trump was going for and just made Trump look like a doosh for bringing it up.
  12. Damn right he’s no saint. He’s a piece of shit. I’ll give him credit for appointing strong conservative judges and not expanding war in the Middle East. But I wouldn’t follow him out the front door if my house were on fire.
  13. More than the guy who just straight up grabs them by the pussy? Yes.
  14. I liked this Frontline doc. It attempts to explain why Trump and Biden are the way they are. BL: I can respect Biden as a man even though I may disagree with his politics. I can’t respect Trump, and his politics are whatever serves Trump best in the moment.
  15. The pay bump was motive enough for me to check the boxes I needed to check to make O-5. Money isn't everything, but it ain't nothing neither, as they say.
  16. "All animals are equal..." But seriously, America is a great place because so many different types of people from different races and religions and ethnicities can come together with the common goal of making it rich someday. Recognizing that some have it harder than others in seeking that common American goal is ok. Nobody should be systematically and officially held back and the military is a great place to watch that integration happen. I'm also glad they've toned down the "men are rapists" and "whites are privileged" rhetoric. While I don't have issue with that information per se, I'm not sure it makes us a more legal force.
  17. If we can keep it.
  18. I would be surprised if Romney abstains. He's interested in making the Court more conservative.
  19. I forgot ASBC was a thing. Went to UPT instead.
  20. How do mail in ballots work? Do they have to be in by Election Day or is there leeway like for absentee ballots? How can CNN call a state for candidate X if the race is close? I’m not a fan of the “game day” atmosphere on Election Day on TV. Basically once a state has been called one way by a majority of channels people stop caring and forget about the thousands of absentee ballots left to count.
  21. My point is that I haven’t sworn allegiance to anyone but the Constitution.
  22. Does that come with auto-Republican party registration? Give me a break.
  23. Am I taking crazy pills. 🤔
  24. AP and Fox News both corroborated the story. Russia indeed.
  25. Another liberal rag "confirms" the details of the story. Fake news generators pandering to its audience smh.
