A River of BS and an Ocean of Delusion -€“ Just another day at the Pentagon
2016-06-09
[US Defense Watch] The destruction of the US military keeps humming along at a breakneck pace.

According to the Pentagon and the Faustian Sellouts of the Round Table, aka the Joint Chiefs of Staff, things are going splendidly in the US military.

As the military reels from severe readiness, morale and social issues, you will consistently hear some bureaucratic clown like Secretary of Defense Ash Carter declare that this is the best military the US has ever fielded.

Hmm?..

In the screenwriting world, they call that "a beat," aka dead silence.

Let’s take a look at how well things are going these days:

Operation Kamikaze, the force fed integration of women into the combat arms and special operations is progressing gradually, like a slow IV drip of death in Doctor Kevorkian’s Ambulance of No Return. The Army and the Marines are as busy as Keebler Elves as they scramble to accommodate females in units that have been all male since Christ was a corporal. Latrines and showers are being modified and standards are being chain sawed into the abyss known as gender neutrality.

What kind of recruits will the new gender neutral combat arms have? A buddy of mine, a former US Army officer related a good story to me this week. He spoke of a conversation he had with a waitress in one of his local haunts. The young woman is out of shape, 40 pounds overweight and a lesbian. She told him she can’t wait to sign up for the Army and get into a tough combat arms unit.

Obviously, she’s been watching a lot of TV cops shows where the bulimic bimbo detective goes Steven Seagal on East LA gang bangers.

Obama’s Flying Circus is in town and it’s attracting every possible freak show performer: the gay soldier named Chad, the transgender Marine, Chastity; ­­the delusional You Go Girl feminist with a hyphenated last name and the Millennial kid who’s only muscular development is in his texting thumbs and who thinks real war is like Call of Duty 5.0.

#5  My new Congressman understands the readiness issues, so that's another vote on the right side of the balance.

#4  There is enough money in DoD to increase readiness and keep enough ammo in stock to fight a real war. However, there is a deficit in moral courage to cut out the expensive contractors and "do nothing" civilians that are only there for a paycheck.

#3  The current administration is going full tilt in their efforts to dismantle our defense industry, both active military and the civilian defense industry. The freak show is the emotional smoke screen to the real damage. The fat chick and fags will go to basic, cry a lot, and then take their discharge and never see a combat unit. Who cares. What is going on behind the screen is the full dismantling of our readiness. Not based off of manpower but equipment based. The marine aviation fleet is at 30% combat ready. The Army and Navy are looking at the same numbers. Sec Def's number one priority is not to bring more dollars into DOD. His number one priority is to stop sequestration in 2018. We have yet to stop the bleeding, let alone fix it. And every time we start to talk readiness we are fixated with fags and fat chicks, number of bathrooms and feelings. We need to step away and refuse to discuss the fags and talk about what it takes to defend this nation get our combat readiness back up to standard. The gay thing will sort itself out, the readiness will not.

#2  No it's not normal society. It's not a civilian enterprise. Even the founder understood that. That is why the Constitution called for a separate set of laws governing land and naval forces. Any other job you can basically give two weeks notice and depart, not the military. It's the idiots and fools who every so often try to 'civilianize' the place, particularly those who have zero understand or even contact beyond Hollyweird of what its all about. There are no appeals, no judges, no public opinion in the most pure Darwinistic environment anyone has to face. The enemy doesn't care about how you feel or what you believe, they just want to kill you.

#1  Unless things have changed since 20 to 25 years ago, people in uniforms don't count for much at the five sided nut. Political appointees and career feather merchants are the ones who are actually in charge. The civilians are all assigned to.... "B Company."
