Comrades, since the liberal crybabies ostensibly most sensitive wisest among us are gifted with the ability to sniff out the most trivial unrecognized of societal inequalities, it is incumbent upon The Kollecktive™ to endure listen to seize upon their every expression of personal guilt  wimpiness prescience and transform their every whine outburst of tears revelation into a previously undiscovered human right and ram down the throat of solemnify each into USSA law under the 14th Amendment and add them to international law under the already overreaching ridiculously unrealistic United Nations’ Bill of Human Rights. 

Sensitive liberals are the heroes and heroines who lead the way in contriving discovering revealing rights that the rest of us are too weak myopic preoccupied to perceive and without their blubbering insight we would not know that “Department of War” is an insensitive and provocative term that indicates decisiveness aggression rather than the conciliation total surrender peacefulness we should be portending in a mostly peaceful world of mostly nonaggressive and trustworthy enemies adversaries nations that hate us don’t always agree with our culture, form of government or right to exist conduct.


Liberals are the problem from start to finish.

More than several times I've told senior Officers who gave an order like "your guys will defend from here to there and stop bad guys from coming this way" that the ”DEFEND Helicopters will be here next week, my guys will attack from here to there and kill lots of bad guys, we can we start in an hour, questions?

What distillery?

Here at Tractor Barn #2, we fix tractors and offer indoor political lectures after singing of the glorious marching songs, and most beloved songs of the worker and sometimes the revolution. All approved by the Party.™

There is no distillery, no contraband crystal radios in the toolroom for monitoring reich-wing hate speech, or even public access to the People's Computer and interwebs..  Nope.  Not here.

Say, is this (cough) distillery like that so-called "bunker" that allegedly exists somewhere near a Waffle House?  I denounce such fallacies, and by Lenin, whoever started such--heads will roll...

This is not my circus, not my dancing bear.


I spent some of my misguided youth in the Army and in the middle east.  In Abu Dhabi, we had access to a grocery store that had a room that the "faithful" were not allowed to enter.  In it were such "haram" (prohibited) items as bacon, ham, cans of pork and beans, pop-tarts, and other such staples we infidels require containing pork products (yes, pop-tarts have lard!)  Each product was double wrapped in plastic, so the cashiers on the "expatriate line" didn't have to defile themselves by touching them.

RE: Comrade Red Salmon from The People's Air Force:

"About damn time! I always found "Defense" to be a bit disingenuous and ambiguous. An authority on the subject of armed conflict, General George S. Patton, once said:

"Nobody ever defended anything successfully, there is only attack and attack and attack some more."


While we are quoting generals, here's a few comments in a similar vein:

In the words of Hap Arnold:

“Offense is the essence of air power” and “It's got to be done and done quickly, so let's get it done”.


Which leads us to the legendary “Big Cigar” himself, Curtis Emerson LeMay, a personal hero of mine. LeMay is the longest-serving four-star general in U.S. history and often misquoted and misunderstood. Say what you will about him, the man led from out front, practiced what he preached and got the job done.

He approved the ironic Strategic Air Command motto, “Peace is our Profession”, and he was clear about his intention to maintain that peace by being ready for WAR.

Truly, “Si vis Pacem, para bellum”


A man among men. In his own words:

“If you are going to use military force, then you ought to use overwhelming military force. Use too much and deliberately use too much; you'll save lives, not only your own, but the enemy's too.”

“If you kill enough of them, they stop fighting.”

“I suppose if I had lost the war, I would have been tried as a war criminal.... Every soldier thinks something of the moral aspects of what he is doing. But all war is immoral and if you let that bother you, you're not a good soldier.”

“We're at war with Japan. We were attacked by Japan. Do you want to kill Japanese, or would you rather have Americans killed?”

“Today, shooting wars are won or lost before they start. If they are fought at all, they would be fought principally to confirm which side had won at the outset.”

“Don't like to do anything half-heartedly, even if it is a wicked and self-destructive avocation like smoking cigars”

And,

“If we maintain our faith in God, love of freedom, and superior global air power, the future looks good.”

Pretty much says it all.

Samuel L. Jackson has an expression for such men. "Bad Mother-somethingorother" I believe.

About damn time!  I always found "Defense" to be a bit disingenuous and ambiguous.  An authority on the subject of armed conflict, General George S. Patton, once said:

Nobody ever defended anything successfully - said Saul Alinsky - so there is only attack and attack and attack some more... until the defenders go on the attack via any means necessary. This is WAR! Saul Alinsky was the Patton of Darkness. To defend what you hold good and true, is proof you need to be destroyed. When the people in East and West Germany finally had enough, heard Reagan urging Gorby to tear down The Wall, and decided to do it for themselves --- did you hear it? "Do it for themselves".

???

Comrades, that kind of initiative - to right the wrongs government inflicted on their own people... now that didn't need to flourish in the USSA, savvy? A people focused on defending themselves from Alinsky's Lawfare, don't have enough money to do anything to right the wrongs inflicted by governments on their own people.

The Cold War's peace dividend was spent by Bill Clinton's, Janet Reno's FBI to assure the us government was coming to save those women and children being held hostage by a gun totin' religious zealot to safety by gassing and burning them with Bradley tanks in Waco.

Kind of sums it up.  I wish this had been done decades before!  Like when we won the Cold War.  At least before Bill Clinton and the rest of the Democrats gave the victory away.  

Pointless People's Air Force Story Warning: 

While deployed to a marginally friendly country in the 1980s, I came across some scruffy looking individuals lazing about.  They were speaking English (with a USSA accent) and enjoying the local cannabis.  They wanted to talk and it soon came out that they were members of the Peace Corp.  Apparently they had established a wonderful little situation where they did nothing but smoke dope all day and get waited on hand a foot by the locals they were exploiting.  Good gig if you can get it I guess.  They were supposed to be passing on successful farming methods or building a hydro-electric dam or something, but that wasn't happening.  Our conversation was cut short after they announced the Peace Corp thing.  I countered that I was a member of the War Corp.  I didn't see them around very much after that.  I always wondered how their reports back to Peace Corp HQ read.

The jackalope encountered the War Corp of Jesus, in which getting Noriega elected Nicaragua's communists dictator for life, or until Noriega decides it's time to name his successor communist dictator, which is never. Did Fidel retire?

Neither did these War Core for Jesusites, as they were still organizing War in North Carolina during the Summer of Love of Trump.




This is terrible.  Why not rename it Department of Social Experiments?  That would be far more accurate.

Too much money is spent in the Military Health Department of Social Experiments, that could be spent on more bombs. And, developing accuracy.

Or pearl clutching.

Did you hear Trump's Rose Garden Club retelling of how long the Stealth Bomber guys had looked forward to delivering destruction to that Iranian facility?

All the pearl clutching rather than just nipping that nuclear necessity nonsense in the bud. The cost in human suffering due to pearl clutchers afraid we're going to offend people trying to kill us, and make them mad. They're already mad! Plus they really want to kill us.

Pearl clutchers are why a public school classroom isn't a safe space for children to learn or for a teacher to teach.

War hard!

RE: I'd play this at ear bleeding volume...

With bags of Pork Rinds prominently displayed near the register.

Speaking of multiculturalism (the good, honest and true kind), I had some Puerto Rican neighbors, Blanca and Jesus (no, not THAT Jesus) that used to do epic Pig Roasts for various family events. They'd always invite us over and Jesus made sure I got my "Crispies". E Pluribus Unum is our true strength in this country, and some good-natured diversity can sure keep things interesting!
