Whaddaya get when…
You cross Cindy Sheehan with an Army first sergeant? I submit you get the same damned, brain- dead, fool-tool of the anti-war Left with approximately the same authority to speak for our nation as the screeching Cindy once thought she had due to her Gold Star Mother status, but with master sergeant stripes to hide behind. Cindy did in fact get her fifteen minutes of fame, thanks to a very compliant liberal media, but ask yourself, “When was the last time I heard her name in the news?
This new iteration of Cindy comes in the form of this supposedly authentic Army first sergeant whose bio indicates she was initially an Army oboe-blower who graduated to recruiting at some point, specializing in healthcare recruiting, neither being career fields that usually involve ground combat. I’ve strained my old brain as hard as possible and, for the life of me, I do not remember a single time in Vietnam hearing a call go out for band members or healthcare recruiters to conduct a recon patrol or a night ambush.
So here she is, this oboe-blowing retired first sergeant, who feels confident like Cindy that she has the tactical and strategic creds to direct the military affairs of the nation. Her piece at Daily Caller is reminiscent of a 1960’s disarmament screed where America should just keep reasoning with that little Nork dork, placating him until one of his scientists stumbles on to a way to keep a ballistic missile in the air long enough to deliver a dirty nuke warhead onto South Korean or Japanese soil. It’s just more leftist propaganda to further the advancement of world socialism. First Sergeant Bua should be too shamed to show her face among her fellow veterans.
Maybe I’m just getting old and cranky, well, actually that happened a long time ago, but as an old combat veteran it chaps my butt to hear an Army band member/career recruiter speak out as a strategic authority based on the fact that she’s a retired first sergeant. That’s like having Barney Fife be a law enforcement spokesman on mass shootings. What she is doing is obvious: She’s using the color of Army rank to lend her moral authority, much as Cindy shamelessly stood on her soldier son’s grave and spouted the words fed her by the leftist propagandists until they needed her no more.
I’ve always believed that young man would have been so ashamed of his mother’s self-serving betrayal.

Cindy (Bag-O-Wind)
Apparently, the IVAW link is not available.
But this silly bimp? Put a bag over her head and aim her at the door. I read two sentences of her “article”. Not once have I found anything that indicates Pres. Trump will engage in a first strike against Norkiland.
She is an ignorant ass hellbent on making an ever bigger ass of her ass. Let us get out of her way, and quickly, too.
Lemmee see them records. Those IVAW’s are always bloviating about their Iraq war heroics. She doesn’t even mention Iraq in her Bio. I bet she’s an Associate Southwest Asia band member!
Imagine it… someone even LESS qualified than Bradley Manning to comment on national defense
Another “useful idiot.”
“Useful” idiot. Fixes it for ya.
Not all recruiters are the worst but the worst people I’ve ever met to wear a uniform were/are recruiters. Not to mention the percentage of them that I wouldn’t piss on to put the fire out…
Recruiters on the bag are just trying to get back to the fleet. Career recruiters are truly evil.
I’ve seen too many drink the kool aid and convert.
I guess hell needs sinners…
…Oh, I can attest to that from my four years as a street Recruiter for the USAF in Akron, OH (89-93). The career recruiters I knew were, with one notable exception, Joe Izuzu with a homicidal streak. I have never before or since seen NCOs who so disgraced their stripes and their honor. I got to see one – an E9 with 25 years – get nailed to a wall on Christmas Eve 93 for falsifying paperwork. That put the fear of God into them for a while, but I gather after that it was business as usual. The smartest thing the services could ever do is get rid of career recruiters and replace them with admin NCOs on a regular tour.
This. I did my 36 months and pissed them off by LAUGHING MY ASS OFF when they asked if I ever thought about putting an 8412 package in.
Funniest was our Recruiter Instructor talking about not knowing the PSS steps and saying “Thats like going to combat without your T/E Weapon”. Some dude that was leaving in 2 weeks was like “WTF MGySgt, when the hell were YOU ever in combat?”
Survived my time from 95-98. Thought about writing an paper titled “Leadership by Threats and Intimidation” when I finished.
Numbers were the bottom line for 8412s. When I corrected a Sgt about his uniform (Blood stripe unfraying, hole at the elbow of his long sleeve shirt)I was told by the 8412 to leave him alone, he was writing “numbers”. Saw an overweight Gunny left alone because he was writing “bones”, the next year when he was struggling, his weight was now a factor.
36 one month tours…. Glad I never went there.
Never wanted to go there. Thought I was safe after I had done MSG duty, but 2 yrs after that, on the way back from Somalia, got orders to recruiting.
I call it 36 months of my life I can never get back. You didn’t miss anything, trust me.
Concur.
It’s the 90% of recruiters who give the rest of them a bad name.
Recruiters are like lawyers and the ‘silver bullet’. A necessary evil that you don’t look forward to dealing with that leave you with a vague sensation that something unpleasant was stuck in your ass.
“Not all recruiters are the worst but the worst people I’ve ever met to wear a uniform were/are recruiters.”
Ditto that!
I’ve seen Recruiters that would make a sleazy Used Car Salesman or Politician look like a SAINT.
Did she lay oboe or meat whistle? Lot of chap stick one way or the other.
“play”
I can see her being laid by an oboe…
I’m sure an Oboe was NOT the only thing she blew to make rank…
From the article linked above:
‘Gina Bua is a retired U.S. Army First Sergeant and mother of two Afghanistan veterans. Although not an Iraq Veteran herself, she is on the Board of Iraq Veterans Against the War, an organization comprised of post 9/11 veterans.’
— sigh —
‘Nuff said.
She’s in good company, there aren’t many Iraq veterans in the Iraq Veterans Against the War organization.
Bet you a bottle of your favorite that this retired 1SG couldn’t write a Company level OPORD moving platoons through the chowhall. Yep, her strategic guidance is just what the Dr ordered.
Old broad couldn’t lead a fresh turd down the bowl.
SFC D are you trying to say she’d need a flashing neon sign that reads “Pull the shiny handle when you smell shit”.
Back in 2008, I was attending a parade in Gloucester, MA that my daughter – a member of the US Naval Sea Cadets – was participating in. I was wearing my Iraq War Veteran ballcap (having deployed aboard a sub in 2003 at the start of OIF). One of the other marching groups was IVAW, and one of them tried to pull me off the sidewalk to march with them when they saw my cap, saying, “You need to march with us!” I nearly decked the guy when he tried to grab me and managed to respond, “No I don’t.”
That she associates with IVAW is in itself enough to call her out as a self serving and malleable idiot. Many in that outfit’s ranks are fakers.
Bassoonist, I thought she wrote “Baffonist”. From her rant and posting I see she went to basic training at Jackson and besides blowing on things, she acquired what skills? If she was a 1Sgt, that would be a sad commentary on the 6th Medical Recruiting Command. I only repaired medical equipment but I can list 9 duty stations in my 22 years. How can someone homestead like that, AGR?
Buffoonist
Imma confoosed…where are her records? Did she really serve? Granted I can’t imagine anyone POSing as a band member, but still, we did have a Mail Clerk once…. Just curious…
Either way, I hereby promote this Flap Dragon to Turd Soup Conductor.
What part of, North Korea can not be allowed to possess Nuclear Weapons does this woman not understand? Talk, sanctions, and bad negotiations have resulted in a lunatic having nuclear weapons and the technology to deliver them thousands of miles.
Its like she has been in a cave for decades. She writes this as if the “Dear Leader” of NK is being quickly and wrongfully judged in some kind of manipulative vilification. He is, as was his father and his fathers father before him, an aggressive war mongering loon.
She most certainly does not speak for mothers of veterans everywhere, nor does she seem to have a clue about what most mothers of veterans think. I checked with my mother, Gina is not on her speed dial and does not represent any mother of a veteran I am aware of.
Gina seems to endorse more talking and no action. She thinks waiting until NK has thousands of Nuclear Weapons before we act is a good idea. She uses a career in the Band and as a Recruiter to speak as if she has some authority as a veteran on these matters. She does not.
She knows nothing of what it is like to stand in the face of tyranny and she never will because there are those of us that have done it for her. She has no concept of shame and lost any ability to stand with courage in the face of tyranny. There is nothing like the site of an amputated spirit…there is no prosthetic for that.
Someone like her in 1939 would’ve insisted on isolation right up to the point that nazi Silbervogel bombers started dropping nukes from orbit on Omaha. They had some rather detailed plans to do that, and would’ve pulled it off, given enough time. Luckily for the rest of us, Hitler wasn’t the most patient of mass-murdering megalomaniacal dictators.
Fun fact: though the war ended before it could be prototyped, the Silbervogel was dusted off by NASA 30 years later and developed into the Space Shuttle.
You’re kidding! Really?
I’ll be researching that one when I get a couple minutes.
Yep. It still needed some work where the design left off, but if the krauts had been willing to take their time on the whole world-domination-and-genocide thing, it would’ve been feasible. Hitler liked the idea, and it fit in nicely with his long-range plans to invade the US and colonize the Americas.
As designed, the Silbervogel was a single-stage-to-orbit craft launched from a rocket-assisted sled on a gigantic ski jump-like ramp rather than a vertical launch gantry tower like we’re used to seeing. For those gamers out there, “Ace Combat 5” featured a mission where you defend such a launch facility from an air strike.
Oh! I know where I’ve seen that setup. It was the evacuation rocket in ‘When Worlds Collide’.
And then, there was the buzzbomb launch from one of those, with a test pilot aboard to find out what was wrong with the guidance system in ‘Operation Crossbow’.
Negro, please.
The Antipodes bomber was vaporware. By 1944 Germany had no resources for such a project, and their atomic bomb progress was non-existent.
You may have some basis in your claim about the Shuttle, since there were so many German engineers involved, but since there were so many engineers (and designers) involved it’s likely they didn’t use the Sanger as any sort of basis for the Shuttle.
What they did have at the time was a significant supply of nerve gas. Dumping that on the invasion beaches was given serious consideration by the Germans, but they decided that since the Allies doubtless had a large supply of the same stuff, it would be counter-productive, since the Allies had air superiority.
While we didn’t have nerve gas, we did have B-29 bombers and atomic bombs in the pipeline. Most folks today don’t know the Manhattan Project was started because a large number of scientists thought Hitler was near success in developing his own nuclear warhead. It might have been instructive to see P-80 Shooting Stars escorting B-29s that delivered a nuclear payload on Berlin…
Dave,
Did your death sentence get pushed to the right again?
Apparently so, I usually ignore death threats. I only posted about Lawton because he is a particularly offensive pussy.
I can’t really take death threats from a Motor T guy that was a suck up kiss ass and full of shit when I served with him very seriously. When we needed counter sniper teams we always went straight to Motor T and looked for the highly buffed boots following the Lt. everywhere. If he ever shows up to kill me, I will probably remove that sniper tattoo from his fat ass before I let him kill me.
He is now pretending to his latest female victim that he doesnt know me. He seems to have suddenly forgotten everyone else from G 3/10 during Beirut as well.
Life must suck when you live it as a liar and a pussy.
Spousal unit is still hopeful.
It sounds like the Hit Squad trying for you is even MORE incompetent than those trying to find Hack Stone!
Question to the field: Aren’t musicians brought into the military for bands given rank as a result of their musical ability and start as Sergeant and above? I know they only receive a quickie basic training and then go to train to advance their musical skill, never again to see any military or heaven to forbid tactical training.
Can’t speak from any experience more than being an audience member, but it seems almost every member of the US Navy Band is a Chief (E-7) or above with few if any service stripes.
beats me, but I have noticed women that play wind instruments are excellent at fellatio
Not necessarily so; the skill sets are almost diametrically opposite. Women who smoke, however… both sucking and into oral gratification. What’s not to like?
Pervert…
8th and I Marine band members all start at SSgt or better depending on expertise if memory serves. I believe the Division/Wing Bands are similar although lessor rank. But you are correct, the primary consideration is how well they play the instrument.
The division/Wing band members used to have secondary combat mission as stretcher bearers, and other support roles. Probably no longer the case.
The “President’s Own” ( THE USMC Band) are recruited by audition and NEVER attend recruit training. They are taught how to wear the uniform and basic military courtesy. I do believe they start out at SSGT E-6 rank and pay.
The rest of USMC musicians have to audition as well, then attend Recruit training and field music School. I believe every major command ( Division, Wing and base) has a band. They still have to do things like PT and annual qualifications.
Marine Corps Bandsmen at the Marine Division level are also trained to conduct headquarters security operations and other security missions as may be directed.
‘1st Marine Division Band’
http://www.1stmardiv.marines.mil/Units/1ST-DIV-BAND/
‘[…]
The 1st Marine Division Band was organized during World War II in the Pacific Theater of Operations in the early 1940’s. Since then, The 1st Marine Division Bandsmen have drawn their rifles in support of several operations, including Desert Shield, Desert Storm, Enduring Freedom, and Iraqi Freedom I and II. The band was attached to Headquarters Company, Regimental Combat Team 5 and deployed to Camp Fallujah, Iraq from February 2006 to January 2007, in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom 05-07. The band served in combat missions as a security platoon, with Marines serving as a security force in Central Fallujah, a mobile security convoy, and a mobile security team for an Explosive Ordinance Disposal Team. Marines of the 1st Marine Division Band continue to serve as individual augments to I Marine Expeditionary Force, as we are still in the fight on the War on Terror.
[…].’
Yes, now that I think about it the Wing band was going to deploy to provide security at Al Asad. Division had already tasked its band to do the same so the Wing stayed behind to cove the PA events. They probably deployed later.
Depends on which band. The United States Marine Band (President’s own) do not attend recruit training and typically hold a Doctorate in music, this is why they are appointed as Staff Sergeants unpon entry and wear a lyre instead of crossed rifles on their chevrons. The Commandant’s Own, drum and bugle Corps and every band below’s members attend recruit training and MCT.
Got it, I was focused on the Drum and Bugle Corps although I though they were SSgts and above also.
Do the musicians go through RT on a musical/band contract or do they try out as a musician later?
They ship to recruit training with a musician contract as long as they pass an audition beforehand.
Before I Enlisted in the late Eighties I talked briefly with an Army Musician who bragged to me about what an easy ride he had, eight hours a day of practice, an occasional weekend of a lengthy OPD where they were put up in either motels or Visitor’s Quarters instead of Field Problems and the only time they even wore TA-50 was when they went to qualify on their weapons.
She is using the appeal to authority fallacy. She is also bragging about her participation in the cesspool collective known as IVAW.
Who the fuck does this idiot think she is fooling her? I’m pretty annoyed the Daily Mail would even let someone like that publish on their domain.
“Cindy did in fact get her fifteen minutes of fame, thanks to a very compliant liberal media, but ask yourself, “When was the last time I heard her name in the news?”
Recently! Cindy Sheehan is the spokeswoman & media whore for the Russian-funded Calexit campaign for “California Independence”. I guess once one anti-American screed had ran its course, she immediately flocked to another.
Here’s hoping she’s more successful in her current endeavor.
Jesus, not this again! 3 or 4 specific counties at most! The rest of California is sick of them, too!
Forget it, TOW. You might also mention that three or four counties is out of a total of 58, but some of the Texas window lickers have a problem with numbers larger than how many fingers and toes. Calexit is about as likely as my dog getting hired as a meat inspector.
Have you noticed that Kevin “30 bullets” De Leon is also having problems getting his sanctuary state bill passed?
I thought that was, “Thirty-clip magazine”.
If memory serves it was a “thirty-magazine clip in a stealth ghost gun with a shoulder thing that goes up.”
May he choke on the next dick he sucks.
30 magazines, huh? The subscription fees alone are enough to put you in the poor house. No one can afford 30 magazines all at once!!!
Fuck Kevin De Leon. That ass-hamster can choke on the next dick he sucks.
And, of course, we all know someone who’d hit it……..;-)
Bam!
Are you sure? She’s sportin’ quite a dewlap.
better that than a beard
I guess you’re right. A little exercise can correct the flaw. Skip to 4 minutes.
Exercise can’t correct it, but I could watch that all day(with the sound off).
“a lesbian’s dream
if I ever did see one”
with apologies to The Band
Are those her real teeth?
In her bio it says:
“After about seven months of volunteering helping Veterans, I was able to find employment with the federal government as a Rating Veterans Service Representative.”
So she was reviewing & rating VA disability claims? No wonder there are hundreds of thousands of backlogged claims when you have someone that couldn’t even find a job as a teacher reviewing claims.
This shitbird may explain why so many hangnails & heard-a-mortar-once are milking the system.
I’m sure it was some shitbag like this old whore that approved my pos brothers PTSD claim! No wonder the VA is so full of shit!!!
Did anyone notice that when Pres. Bush was in, she and her peeps protested the war constantly but as soon as Monarch obama got in, all the protesting stopped.
absolutely
*UUUUUHHHHMM* Yeah, I kinda noticed the same thing. DITTO with their FAILURE to notice the increase in KIA and WIA’s after President Trump’s predecessor took office in 2009.
I’ll say it. What a Blow hard.
I didn’t read the article, but Wow has 1SG Moerk gotten old quickly. Must’ve been all that time she spent playing facebook warrior?
I played the trumpet while attending AIT at Fort Devens. It was a voluntary duty. We got to march in parades. It was lots of fun. I learned to pay the trumpet in High School.
Did that self-bloviating bovine-headed bucket of glittery unicorn skid marks and monkey shit EVER even fire a weapon other than for Annual Qualification, let alone ever spend a night in the field, or were overnight performance trips written up as field time, staying in a hotel like the Air Farce does?
She claims disabled vet on her twitter page.
Disabled with what? She sits on her brains, maybe?
It’s just an opinion, an opinion you’re choosing to not only disagree with but attack a person’s character by saying she think she knows how to guide the nation in war. Well since you have problem with her do you have a problem with all the non-veteran radio talk show host such as Mark Levin, Erick Harley, Gary Macnamera, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Medved and the rest telling their listeners what we should do on North Korea? If not then I would just say you’re just bothered with her politics since they’er the opposite of yours. I wouldn’t be surprised if you too think you know what’s best for this nation’s strategy on North Korea and you’re here on this site telling us what it should be. That’s what we call “the pot calling the kettle black”.
Well now, ma’am, I reckon you sure put Ol’ Poe in his place exposing him as an opinionated old geezer, something that’s going to come as a real shock to the regular readers here at TAH. Here I’d been gettin’ away with writin’ opinion pieces all these years, disguised as unbiased, objective, informational reporting and you have to go and blow my cover, Miz Lily. Dang!
I beg the forgiveness of all you loyal readers here at TAH for my evil subterfuge and pledge forthwith to cease and desist in including my opinion in any further of my writings. Let’s hope that will satisfy Miz Lily’s outrage at my nefarious behavior and calm her down a little. Also will one of you pull that broomstick outta her ass so she ain’t so danged stiff-necked?
Gotta run now; Mad Dog’s on my direct line wantin’ my opinion on what kinda haircut we oughta give that fat little twerp once we have him in custody. I ain’t sure yet but I am gonna suggest we use Lily’s broomstick to hold his head still while we do the trim.
You have never once successfully disguised your pieces as unbiased, objective, or particularly informational.
Strange…. he makes noises but all that we hear is like this:
Lars, you humorless dipshit. Good grief you are obtuse, man. Obtuse and humorless is a downer combination for sure.
Maybe he’s autistic…
Every now and then, you need a blunt instrument to sharpen the rest of the knives, don’t you?
Hey, Poetrooper, give Mad Dog my special love, willya? I have sunflowers I can send him for his desk.
Send seeds to the Norks with instructions to plant them where the seedlings are facing toward Pyongyang and benefit the most from the radiation…
I’m just as bothered with right wing talk radio host telling millions of Americans every day for the last week how we should handle North Korea. Obviously they’er not more of an authority on strategy then this leftist you talked about. Yet for some reason you’re focused on the leftist and don’t see to care about the more influential right wing talk radio chickenhawks.
Obviously, you’re either disturbed by the mere notion that people are entitled to air their concerns, or disturbed by the simple idea that maybe no one here is LISTENING TO THEM!!!! Did THAT occur to YOU, LILY???
Or are you so tight-assed about YOUR perceptions and ideas that you think no one else has the right to speak freely in an opposite perception or idea?
As it is, you manifest a problematic phobia about freedom of speech – okay for THEE, but not for ME. My response to you is get some help with your phobias, kiddo, before they eat you alive.
I think my cats have better sense than you do.
It’s not about anyone’s concerns. It’s about not seeing that every single day there are non-veteran’s on talk radio telling us that we need to be all hard on North Korea. Yeah I’ll take advice from a private before I listen to a chickenhawk on talk radio telling me what to do about North Korea. As for this liberal Poet is concerned about, I hear him. She’s just an annoying liberal using her military experience to sway people politically. That doesn’t excuse the chickenhawks on the radio or anywhere else. I could care less about your cats abilities.
I know to you folks this may sound silly,
But I just don’t know what to do with Lily,
She thinks she’s dealing with a man of sanity,
Will someone tell her Ol’ Poe ain’t Hannity?
It’ll be OK Ol’ PO, the lib won’t persuade the masses to protest’s Trump’s fire and fury.
Maybe you should stop listening to crap radio/TV people like those who scare you. They’d make anyone paranoid. Obviously, it’s working on you.
Exactly.
EX-PH2 is a former photographers mate and this site publishers her ramblings about NK.
Oooooohhhhh!! Lookie here, everybody!!
RED ALERT!!!
COMMISSAR POODLEDICK IS TRYING TO ANNOY ME AGAIN WITH PERSONAL ATTACKS.
Are you going to make more veiled threats, TAYLOR?
Naw, Ex, look at the time. He’s busy working a flesh pickle for breakfast…
He’s been trying commandeer the blog for months with no luck. Just waiting for him to drop that shoe….
I found his theme music. It’s 3 minutes long. No action, just the music.
Ahmma soooo rub one out to that^^^
Oh, lawsy, don’t tell you’re having the Princess Leia in the gold bikini fantasy?
Speaking of someone who can choke on the next dick he sucks, Lars shows up!
Naaah, he’s just taking a breather in between his usual daily buffet of Juicy bananas.
*AAAAAAW*, poor widdwe Babbles McButthead had his inner child HURT by Ex-PH2’s refusal to believe or put up with the bullshit he regurgitates here on TAH, EXCUSE ME while IDGAF about his feelings either!!!
having reviewed her material, she is yet another person regurgitating the old Soviet (thus enamy) propaganda that there are no winnable wars, too horrific, never worth fighting, yadda yadda.
The purpose is to convince us to quit, not to fight, not to oppose Socialist evil and other evils, thus allowing enemies to defeat us.
For some clown to so advocate is pathetic. For a member of the armed forces? Despicable. You can certainly say “is this the fight we want?” Without trying to say “becasue we cant win”.
Yes. The USA can and will win. -That- is the -purpose- of the Armed Forces of the United States. -Win- wars. Not “fight” wars, but -win- them. -Our- wars. Even if our government picks sucky fights. Win them, because to lose them is to lose ourselves to the evil that does exist out there.
Shitty reality. Wars happen. Shittier reality is to fail to win them, for nothing exceeds the waste and destruction of war, like losing a war.
Spewing enemy propaganda of a failed state is certainly a novel interpretation of the Code of Conduct.
“Appeasement” is the slogan of these cheap foodogs. They secretly want to be ruled by a dictator.
They just don’t realize there are plenty of perfectly capable dictators in the world who’s ass they can affix their lips to. Including communist and socialist dictators who have their left-wing paradises, or so their propaganda chiefs proclaim regularly.
Well, just pardon us for calling a commie spewing commie strategy a POS.
Most of us around here took an oath to defend this country from threats from such as the object of this topic. Since you seem to be defending her, or maybe just being argumentative for the sake of it, are you declaring yourself to also be an enemy of this country, or finally admitting to being a garden variety troll?
Very, very perceptive questions, OWB. And no answer will be forthcoming, because that would be admitting to any/all of those choices.
Well done!
Are you really claiming that you took an oath to defend this country from someone like Gina Bua who is a veteran who, correctly, argues we should not be pushing for a preventive war with NK?
If you actually think she is an enemy of the united states then you are a moron.
And a complete fucking nutcase.
HEY Babbles McButthead, DO YOU bother to believe ANYTHING other than what you read in The Village Voice as well as the propaganda that is spoon fed to you by your UC Berzerkaly perfessers?
Careful, API. He may explode.
It could get messy in there.
Oh, look – the disconnect there in COMMISSAR POODLEDICK’S squawking over dissing Gina Bua, whose days of service cannot possibly be questioned, and yet he finds it necessary to cast aspersions on mine!!!!
API, do you see in this the same COMMISSAR POODLLEDICK THE PIUPERDINK’S prejudicial attempt at a hegemony there that I see?
Okay for HE but not for MEEEE????? Keep it up, asswipe. Your hole is getting bigger and deeper.
A;ways the same thing with that bumblebrained COMMISSAR, picking a fight over nothing just to do it. Kind of like a dog barking at nothing.
the 2 in the middle never heard of and neither rush,levin or medved ever claim to be military experts. hey lily stick to kitchen and cook me something not involving a microwave. Panama,Desert Storm,Somalia,2x OIF CIB. Well we will just keep talking to them sweetheart.
We need a bassoonist to go over this Op-plan…said no one ever.
They are never around when you really need one. Shocking…but Moerk is not on her friends list.
Wha – even SP8 Moerk rejects that damn thing?
Maybe she’s just more covert since she became facebook stupid famous.
oh..I thought you said “we need the Warlord of Basoom to go over this war plan”….
“Barsoom” – John Carter, Warlord of Mars.
“Basoom”? Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, would be the warrior of Basooms. Or maybe Lucy Lawless as Xena.
Basson….might have added to ambiance those times we were all soaked and stinky, huddled up in the LCACs…maybe some “Ride of the Valkyries” to ease the JP-5 vurps.
*Bassoon ….ffs
Somebody call homicide. John just slayed.
Anybody remember that guy that used to drag a coffin around with his son’s boots and a picture of him at the anti whatever rallies? Last time I saw him was in DC a number of years ago.
I remember the guy, I can see his face, but I forget his name.
Carlos Arredondo ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Arredondo
Yes, yes, yes! By the way, is this one replacing Ann Wright as official mouth organ of IVAW?
Ann Wright was at VFP and Code Pink because she had no military service after 09/11/2001. She was also on the board of directors of OpTruth – the precursor of IAVA.
Everybody thinks they’re an expert on Korea. None quite as stupid as her.
An embarrassment to baffoonists worldwide.
Excuses, excuses, excuses, moi, Pat, but did you mean ‘baFFOONists’ or ‘baSSOOnists’ or BUFFoonists’?
There are so many choices there. I rather like ‘balloonists’ myself. Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me….!
Great Styx reference there Ex.. +10! One of their better albums
Thank you, Fyrfighter. <3
If you think you know what’s going on in Korea, you don’t understand the situation.
A preventive war with North Korea is an idiotic notion. And only idiots advocate for one.
I challenge you to find a legitimate national security expert that argues we should start a war with Korea.
Only amateur idiots who don’t know a damn thing about North Korea argue that dumb shit
Still can’t find its way into the flock block.
That’s a lot of geese.
You should see the liftoffs when they settle in on a lake on one of the flyways. It’s like watching a massive school of fish organizing itself, almost acting as a single organism.
“Commissar”, your head is of pure shit and shit floats, thus you will also float…
JUST A DAMNED THOUGHT to all the butt-fluffin’ unicorn fart-snorting cotton candyassed glittery gargoyle gonad-ogling Sparkle Ponies out there howling like SJW Flower Monkeys about a preemptive strike on North Korea, HAVE YOU paid even remote attention to China’s announcement that if the United States strikes first that they WILL intervene but if North Korea makes the first move then ALL BETS ARE OFF. So as I see it THAT MEANS that even communist China has had more than enough of the Kim Dynasty and its BULLSHIT!
As far as any of us more sane, and not paranoid like LILY and COMMISSAR POODLEDICK THE PIUPERDINK, individuals are quite aware – because we pay attention to the real news – there is no intent on the part of the US Government to engage in a preemptive strike on North Korea.
As was explained in plain English several days ago, with multiple references as backup, the North Koreans will have to launch their missiles – supposedly at Guam and maybe Japan’s northernmost west coast – before WE ACTUALLY DO ANYTHING.
What part of that do any of you boneheads like LILY and COMMISSAR Commissar the poodledicked Piuperdink NOT understand? Are you REALLY THAT STUPID? Do you take stupid pills when you wake up?
Get some professional help with your problems or dig a bomb shelter and hide in it until the war doesn’t start, you idiots. YOU ARE NUTS.
Ex, they want to see a mushroom could over US territory before we act, and they’ll probably even complain then..
Of course they will, Fyrfighter. Instead of doing the right thing – defending ourselves – they want to talk their way out of it, as if that works with a treacherous beast like Li’l Kim da T’ird.
Cluebat. Apply directly to the forehead.
Same as when Trump says, “we have a military option in Venezuela”. They can get all riled up about it if they want, but it is true.
I guarantee there is a “contingency plan” for a potential invasion, a potential peacekeeping response, and potential humanitarian/emergency crisis response for every country on the planet in the files of the Pentagon.
We have plans on top of plans for Korea “if” we have to intercede and/or strike against the North. We don’t want to, South Korea doesn’t want to, China doesn’t want to, even Japan doesn’t want to. Why? Because the war wouldn’t be the problem, the aftermath and “fixing” the North would cost trillions from every country, especially the US and the South.
That is what keeps China involved in keeping them afloat. They don’t want to deal with the cost of it either. They can’t take care of their own people, let alone 10 million impoverished North Koreans that will run to China as soon as the first attacks happen.
I’m in favor of peace as long as it costs the Bad Guys everything they’ve got.
