Good morning, everyone!
The Freeperati have been forced lately to deal with actual women(not the cardboard caricatures that they prefer, but real ones), and the results haven’t been pretty.
For starters – it’sWimmens In Da Foxholes!
(not to be confused with pumas in da cravices)

****************************************
That’s the whole story so far, by the way…a bit of breaking news, so more to follow, no doubt.
No doubt.

the US military is officially over, eventually
the GOPe will never, ever undo this
Well, they brought back Jim Crow, so one out of two ain’t bad.

Well. I guess our days of “boots on the ground” are pretty much
gone.
It’s probably going to surprise you, but women combat troops are going to bewearing boots. They did a trial run with stillettos, but it didn’t work out.
Women in the front lines is stupid — we’ve decided we aren’t going
to fight anymore.

If you’re referring to WWI – WWII-type hand-to-hand fighting, we haven’t “fought” for a very long time, nor are we likely to. In related news, bayonet charges and trench warfare are unlikely as well.

Foxholes will look much nicer with better interior decorators.

What the heck. Now America is going to put more of our young
ladies, sisters and mothers into war? I know the Israelis are big on
everyone stepping up to protect the country but does the USA really need
to do this?

C’mon, Freeperati – can you please makesome kind of factual arguments (either way) for women in combat?
To: AnAmericanAbroad
On the bright side, it would be great to see a bunch of badass
American chicks sending scores camel-effing islamatards off to the
hereafter.
Tarantinoesque, with the right soundtrack.

It was over when they allowed gays in. It’s no coincidence that
the man responsible for the greatest military security breach in US
history, Bradley Manning, is gay. Talk to any shrink and they will tell
you flat out
gay men have a bitchiness to them that straight men do not,
which to me makes them absolutely not qualified to serve in the
military. And what was the result of that bitchiness? Flat out treason.
And how did the Obama cabal respond after the arrest of Manning? By
immediately overturning DADT.
The FIENDS!! I guess pardoning Manning would have been a bit much…
Just another example that if it hurtsthe
USAhomophobic morons like me, liberals immediately want more of it.

Kiss my ass. My 18 year
old daughter is going into the Marines in August and she is the farthest
thing from a dyke. I hate this announcement.

At least some of the Freeperati have this in proportion:

“It was over when they allowed gays in”
You’re right, because a fag is but a man that thinks he’s a woman.
And you is but a grade-school drop-out that thinks he’s a man.
How many fags wants want any part of combat. How many NORMAL women want
any part of combat? I was in combat, and I damn sure never wanted to be
there.
Welll then, you just answered your own questions, didn’t you?
There is a reason why women are called the weaker sex. Let muslim
soldiers show the US why. Hell, they are tired of raping men anyway,
might as well have the real thing. Obama, first with the fudgepackers,
now with the bull dykes, is absolutely destroying the military.
Oh, yeah – now I remember.
I didn’t think anyone actually said “fudgepackers” anymore. I mean, what is this, third grade?
Wait. Yeah. I’ll be over here.

Some people’s ignorance of history–and not that distant history–is amazing.
“Some people’s ignorance
of history…-is amazing.”FTFY
1) “Bradley Manning, is gay. Talk to any shrink and they will tell you flat out”
Uh, according to the APA’s code of ethics, it is unethical to diagnose someone wihtout having a face to face.
I REALY love how the freeper types always seem to be able to resort to an unnamed but unassailable authority that is impossible to actually verify (by corallary, they themselves couldn’t actually get these “facts” so they are making them up.). Kind of goes along with the idea that they are overly dependent on an authoritarian type of regime.
Of course, I am avoiding the question on homosexuality as a psychiatric disorder (and that it was dropped from the DSM long ago although adjustement is still a diagnosis).
2) Good mention on the blacks in the days of Ozzie and Harriet.
My folks spent their teens in the depression (and my father was in a mill town that was bad enough that it was a focus of a national expose on conditions in mill towns). I find it interesting that their nostalgia included Spanky and the Gang and a carefree life.
The best I can come up with involves that Spanky was their entertainment as well as presenting a carefree escape from the actual depression. Not to mention that the gang ran wild – today they would be arrested on the spot.
Likewise in the theme song for “All in the Family” is the line “Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.” (from memory). Hoover presided over the economic plummet to the Great Depression. Plus he left the ruins for the next administration to take the blame for and to clean up. Not exactly someone that I can see waxing nostalgic for.
Thanks, Tommy, for the interposition of the Civil Rights photos with MrB’s ahistorical nonsense. The last one particularly kicks ass.
“I’m sure Tommy has a photo of that George W. “Miss me yet?” billboard.”
I do indeed.
I made a Demotivational poster of it that says “NO – fuck off and die” in the bottom caption.

I was expecting some variant of “I’ll show her MY full member” as a response to the lesbian spouse article.
Not sure if I’m disappointed that I’m not psychic or glad that no one made the comment.
I suspect it might be too clever and intellectual for anyone to have thought up.
