  1. We are not "making" them fight, they choose to fight because well you know the Russians INVADED their country. I guess we should have forced them to roll over and surrender rather than defend their sovereignty.
  2. Its sad when political ideology clouds common sense, for pennies on the dollar and no American lives we have humbled the Russian military for a long time to come.
  3. The way I read it...he saw the tranny, got a rock hard piss boner, and had a life changing experience.
  4. Living a good life and still trying to make a difference. Over the past year I've had dinner/beers with him in Hawaii, DC and Tampa. Epic mistake when the Air Force let him get away. I hate playing results poker but I wonder how things would be if he and a few others were running things.

  6. More and more data points indicate China is in deep shit with few options to escape the situation. The population issues have been covered above and the latest economic numbers continue seem to confirm many of the predictions. Based on July economic data it would appear they just entered deflation as consumption has not rebounded post COVID. Imports and exports have dropped by double digits as compared to this time last year. Since 2017 birth rate has dropped 40% which will only add to their long-term consumption issues. This is going to be a wild ride.
  7. And they are all Tumbleweed. How does a Wing/CC (and Patch at that), who started as an ABMer and looks to be mostly an on-time guy (maybe 1BPZ), have only senior ABM wings at 21 years of service?
  8. Bidenomics....nothing like it! Federal deficit hit $1.6 trillion in first 10 months of FY23, more than double last year's shortfall
  9. Great interview
  10. We are a bit stuck in current politics...I could care less about Trump. I do know these situations were handled much better by predecessors like George W. Bush. To this day he hosts an annual bike ride for wounded warriors. I suspect sending troops into harm' way is one of the biggest burdens of the office and I would hope all would make a genuine effort to show compassion and interest.
  11. One of the most important duties POTUS has is being the Commander in Chief, sending American troops into combat has to be a very difficult burden to bear. How you handle the aftermath of those tough decisions says a lot about your character. This video shares a disturbing example of how the current clown in chief handles that responsibility.
  12. Now I regret not taking the job with Delta, who says you can't have fun at the airlines! Frustrated Lufthansa pilot flies plane in 15-mile long penis pattern after being diverted to different airport "In a statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for Lufthansa blamed "wind shear" for the diverted flight and unusual flight pattern."
  13. Story time... Pops once told me about the old days when all the F-4 units in Europe would rotate down to Wheelus AFB Libya for desert bombing and gunnery training. The first base to arrive would typically load up beer, ice and bbq items and roll down to the beach to watch jets from the different bases arrive and prep for a 1st night beach party. On one deployment my dad had a new guy in the back seat and having had a nice tailwind on the way down he arrived with a lot of extra gas. He decided to give the new a quick "area fam" which was just an excuse to do an airshow over the beach while the bros set up the grill and "graded" his performance. When he landed the deployed commander was waiting for him as he shutdown and said "you are directed to report to the Wing/CC's office tomorrow at 0700 in your Class A uniform. Back then you were always supposed to have your Class As with you but for some reason his was back in the office at Bitburg....oops. My dad was a large dude and there was only one other bigger dude that bothered to bring his uniform and this guy was 6'6". My dad said he had to fold the jacket up on the inside and pin the sleeves, same with the bottom of the pants. He was the Squadron Patch at this point and helped start the Fast Fac program when he was in Vietnam with the Triple Nickel so most of the leadership at other bases knew who he was, including the Wheelus Wing King. My dad had five DFCs at this point but the owner of the uniform was newer and had not completed a Vietnam tour so his ribbons were a bit "sparse" which the Wing King immediately noticed and make a snide remark about. Over the next few minutes the Wing King very loudly chewed his ass. The base had some sort of conference center and senior officers often would rotate down for conferences. As luck would have it some senior Navy Admirals were there for a conference and had their wives in tow... Unknowingly pops flew right over their outdoor social at 50' pushing 600 knots. Pops said he took the ass chewing and was dismissed so he turned to leave...as he got to the door the Wing King said "Stop!", then with his back turned said "DAMN FINE Flying!!!...now get out of here." He never heard another word about the event except from all the bros that were at the beach that day.
