AmMerc: More On PT

Yup.

Tempus fugit.

Buppert: Imperial Conditioning And The American State

Read it all.

Then think of the zombies at both this week’s Stupid Party and next week’s Evil Party conventions.

And those good, clear-thinking folks are the intellectual and activist leaders of their respective covens.

Any questions?

Mosby On PT

Awesome.

Get on it.

Every day, people who will follow orders to kill you and your family are doing their PT.

Two On Electoral Farce 2012: Four More Years For Obamney

The Unseen Class War That Could Decide The Presidential Election (h/t Maggie’s Farm)

The Last Line Of Defense: Property

My two cents?

Until candidates start talking honestly about the inescapable numbers and the elimination of the national surveillance state, I’ll just keep rooting for a hellzapoppin’ crash, with spectacular secondaries for extra fun.

As a smart guy said to me today:

We’ve got the stupid people, the dependents-on-government (both employees and aid recipients), the union Democratic ‘bots, and the elderly people who refuse to take responsibility for getting rolled and now demand that government steal from their grandchildren in order to fund their dotage.

In other words, we’re screwed.

Someone go get some popcorn, please.

The Integration

…Brian Dye, Operations Chief of I&I in Lexington, Kentucky says training civilians as a blended force with Marine Corps personnel eases the transition into a real world scenario.

“I think it’s always good when you get an opportunity to work on some similar tactics and procedures so that everybody’s kind of operating on the same page. That way when you bring teams together from active duty and the civilian side, it makes the integration a whole lot smoother…”
