Man, I look fuckin' *good* in antlers and a flightsuit!

Mags...I love you, girl, really. You are so unabashedly in favor of whoever will let you pack heat, and I so unabashedly in favor of whoever will let me get my knob polished...

This is what makes America great.

Hark! A sudden outburst of avuncular misdirection...

I'm very much in favor of knob-polishing, myself...for all kinds of knobs, and all kind of polishers. And I certainly don't support everything that Bush has done. But your reflexive reaction that Something Evil And Outrageous Must Be Afoot just because the "imfamous" aircraft is sitting on the ramp of a museum of naval aircraft is yet another classic illustration of mindless BushBashing on the Cellar...more so even than the childish Photoshoppery.

Ironically, the very fact that your reaction was so hysterical establishes that the aircraft in question *is* of historical interest sufficient to justify preserving it rather than sending it to the scrapyard with its many squadronmates.

It's clearly the most famous S-3 in the entire fleet.

Here's a thought: learn to take a joke Maggie, it'll make life much more enjoyable.

Here's a thought: learn to make better jokes. It'll make life more enjoyable for everybody else.

My jokes don't require your acceptance or approval. Sorry.

here's a good joke.....

lmao.......

Then you know how I feel about your advice. :-)

Sounds like serious sour grapes coming from the UK. There's no danger your government will let you defend yourself with a sharp stick, much less an effective weapon.

Not to worry; if you're mugged it will show up clearly on the security cam.

Well, in my case, your first point is certainly accurate.

As to the second point, I doubt I would have landed in the Air National Guard if I had been drafted, much less been in pilot training, much less been allowed to transfer myself (or go AWOL) to work on a political campaign.

As for only taking advice that one already agrees with and making simplistic decisions based on a black and white worldview, I will admit the Mr. Bush has certainly walked that path farther and more resolutely than any other rational being.

Do bear in mind that Mr. Bush is not alone in wanting America to win her wars.

However, too much of the Democratic Party leadership seems determined to leave him alone in it, for all shame. Not in any fundamental way knowing you're engaged in a war is just plain stupid, in my book. This is why more than a few Americans are working up a chronic resentment towards the Dem Party as currently constituted.

More than a few, but, happily, fewer and fewer as the Republican BS used to stir up the resentment is exposed.

Hysterical? Since when is asking aloud whether a given governmental expenditure was prudent hysterical? Or have we finally reached the point where anything that our Exalted Leader or his minions does is automatically Good, and anyone who questions such things Bad?

Not "bad," but "hysterical."

But I think we can generally agree that hysteria is seldom referred to in a positive way. Like, you really never hear, "The crowd is hysterical! That's so *cool*!"
