I'm assuming that "The Drunk Republican" is either some old fart boomer who hid in college during Vietnam or some fat frick zoomer or millennial who couldn't ever serve anyway.

Easy to wager 10000 American lives for a geopolitical move when you or the people you love aren't in the 10k.

I'm more hesitant about that. I'd rather we carpet bomb them with nukes to show them why they can't have nukes than get American lives committed to policing that place. And I'm not in support of that approach to be quite honest.

Are they responsible for ensuring that home school curriculum meets state standards?

If so, I’m not against that in broad concept. I’ve met some home schoolers with pretty significant deficits. I got an in-law who was home schooled by a parent ostensibly learned with a college degree. However the child is having a lot of troubles making it through undergraduate.
We need the freshman medical redshirt and Bristow to come back plus a backup center in portal.

Are there still people who shite on Curry? She’s done more woh this program than anyone since the 90s



I'd get it in the early days but the last 3-4 years there has been a clear uptick. In retrospect, she was literally building a program and finally reach critical mass where competing could happen about half a decade in.
Upsetting Texas would be huge but winning two helps.
Allen is probably gone but maybe he can be persuaded like Philon.

Holloway - ??? - Richardson - Jemison - Sherrell is a great 5 and I don't even know if Hannah or Bethea will be around or not at the 2.
I wonder how many soakings he's been to this year.

He’s Jason Richardson’s kid?!

Yeah NIL was not a factor. I’m betting he they thought Oats would get him to the NBA the best.
Noem was always an opportunist who cares more about her image than the job itself.

Haven’t seen a solar powered ship or jet yet. They also build a ton of coal plants, which should tell you just how effective their alternative power is doing.



Right, they might be able to figure out solar, wind, geothermal solutions to serve their civilian needs but their military needs require nuclear fusion.
China is really big in solar and other energy alternatives.including fusion research because they realize they’re always cornered by the US until petroleum is not a necessary precondition to a functioning economy.

Air superiority will not change minds on the ground in Iran. t never has and won't now.



My big concern with this war is that we seem to think that we're going to get a favorable regime change by missiles, bombs, and drone strikes...and I don't think that is possible without doing things that will be not be remembered favorably in history books centuries from now if we aren't still the victors of history at that moment.

If the goal is to utterly ruin the Islamic Republic then arm some Kurdish rebels then we're just going to be dealing some bullshite there for generations. Maybe it will be not as bad for a while but that isn't going to be a long longterm fix.

The long longterm fix is to destroying every single element of Iranian society. Probably killing a bone chilling number of civilians. Leaving the country in such ruin that capitulation to the US world order is paramount to their survival as a people. Yeah, if history is not written by us some distant time from now then we will be pinned for a Persian Genocide.

However, I think that is REALLY what it would take to get what we say we want and not kick the can down the road and create new faces in control of a gadfly arab state.


I know people won't like hearing this but it is the truth.

Without looking, anybody know how many of these were actually made (within, say, 50)?

I was kinda shocked when I learned.


At some point these were getting sent to the boneyard but I think doctrine adjusted away from an all stealth bomber approach.
If B-52s are flying in a combat air space, you can bet your arse that the US thinks it is highly unlikely Iran or their allies can touch them.

You can also bet your arse that serious destruction is happening.
Bringing back memories and all of them are bad, Clanker Santa.
