After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police, Krztalizer
confessed the following:

I find it difficult to consider the Patriot Act or invading Iraq and tagging on
hundreds of Billions of dollars to the national debt "minimal government
intervention".


SHACK! I joined the ACLU because of the Patriot Act.

I didn't become a Democrat today - it happened slowly, over time, watching
Bush41's background guys get away with murder, then waste millions of dollars
trying to impeach a guy for lying about a blowjob, but the last straw was
Cheney refusing to let the GAO know what went on during the Texas oil lobby's
meetings with him while he formulated our nations energy policy. I would
support a three legged dog like Clinton before I would agree to let Cheney have
four more years to shape our future energy policy. And how long was "the great
uniter" in office before he gutted the EPA, and began full scale efforts to
roll back Roe v Wade, knowing it is the single most devisive issue in modern US
history? That's not the actions of a uniter.


Uh...what he said.

Sufficient to govern? Ok, but when you know 49% of the voters disagree with
your policies, how compassionate or unifying is it to basically **** on
everyone that didn't vote for him? Such a meager victory should have taught
him humility - instead, he took it as a God-given right to jam his agenda, and
his war against Saddam, down everyone's neck. He told Congress that he didn't
feel military action was inevitable in Iraq, even as he planned the invasion he
knew he was going to order, in the face of widespread national disunity on the
issue. Now, here we are.


Uh...what he said.

No sir. Its not just in Muslim countries, either. All over the world, people
do not look at us the same as prior to our invasion of an oil state. At a time
when Al Qaida was an active, determined threat, he diverted resources to go
after his sworn family enemy, Saddam, placing him higher in priority than
wiping out the organization that caused 9-11; General Franks said in an
interview that units were stripped away from the hunt for Bin Laden in the
spool up for the Iraq invasion - as long as he is out there, he remains Threat
#1. I think it was a strategic goof to back-burner Bin Laden and spend
inconcievable amounts of money going after a country that had NOT attacked us.
NK is a far greater threat than Saddam ever was; that will probably be our next
war.


****ing A Bubba!

Okay so you get the picture. Damn Gordon, I never realized you were so
wise. [8-)

Most fighter jocks I know love single seaters, and I don't know any
of them that preferred to fly a side-by-side ship, if there was anything else
available.


Most generalizations don't stand up. OK, name five fighter pilots that
you "know" who wouldn't fly any airplane that was full of free gas.

The one that comes to mind first is Diz Laird, who thought once you had a
"friend" in the cockpit, it was no longer a "fighter". I've sat at tables with
fighter aces at their reunions in San Diego, Mesa, San Antonio and other places
and Diz' comments were in line with what the guys were saying. That said,
almost anyone with a history of flying would fly in a motorized ****can, if
that was the only thing available. I can't imagine why Bush would go through
training and then walk away from a once in a lifetime opportunity to fly the
Deuce, or any other jet fighter.

I mentioned Diz - the other name that pops up right off the bat is Robin Olds,
who used to tell his backseater to "shut up and hold on".

Besides, I didn't say the guys wouldn't ride in a two-seater, I said

Did you miss that part of my comment,

I met him. When he left my wife asked "who was that asshole?" and I
said "he's a fighter pilot, need I say more?"

Well, I was thinking: here's an F-102, and here's a T-33... Hmm, decisions,
decisions...

Believe me! It happens all the time. In the late 90's F-15 and F-16 pilots
were jumping out in record numbers because of all the bull**** orbits in Iraq.
When the training is not realistic, the fun goes out of flying pretty fast. There's
just a ****load of additional duties that pilots have to perform, and some
peckerhead is always coming-up with a new ground training requirement
that must be bean-counted to ****ing death. Charts and slides, briefings to
people who can't wipe their own ass. It all adds up to the fact that flying is
5% of the job description, and 95% is non-mission-related.

I tell you what... Spend 90 days overseas wearing diapers and ****ting all
over yourself, and ****ing all over yourself while sitting on a seat kit for
14 hours waiting for some raghead to fire a round at you. Please! Let me
get rid of this ****ing ordinance so I can empty my ****ing diapers.

There's only a very special breed that will do that, and they usually will take it
because they want to be a General one day, and of course fix everything :-)
