    Mythbusters to take on: PLANE ON A TREADMILL!!

    I had a brilliant idea. This one question (show all work, partial credit) should replace the ASTB.:D

    Yeah, I'd probably have skid marks after that.

    We had one at TBS, unfortunately he's a grunt now so now callsigns for him. I'm sure the photo will follow him there, though.

    Clinton/Obama vs McCain & ?

    Mccain challenged President Bush in 2004? :-D But yes, in all seriousness, NH and Iowa aren' very mainstream and haven't predicted the winner well in the past.

    Huckabee vs. Obama?

    Didn't know any better? What, he's been in a cave all these years? I can't vote for a man whose clearly never been to a ballgame. What kind of American is that?:):D;)

    Huckabee vs. Obama?

    I threw up a little in my mouth when Obama claimed the Anbar Awakening was due to the Democratic victory in 2006 in the ABC debates.

    "the Pentagon" and "unnamed Pentagon official" are two very different beasts.

    Pentagon says ships harassed by Iran

    I don't see where the Captain gave the order. Just some hearsay from a Pentagon official.

    So you say a Mig-29 can't hover eh?

    I'm guessing he means the real Mig-29, which only had thrust vectoring in experimental testbeds.

    Well, they didn't get hozed this time, so they know they can at least get this close next time. Or at least they think so.

    funny, they don't mention his Marine service on his NBC profile. Or his porn career.

    Name change in the military

    Has anyone undergone a legal change of name while in the military (I'm presuming some military spouses have), and what steps do you have to go through to get the DoD to reflect the change? Would this cause any issues down the road? I'm sure it'll red flag an SSBI but the reason is legit. I...

    Ron Paul

    Actually, to use a military analogy, it's the CO's responsibility to know where the damn boat's going. It's the XO and SNCOIC who keep the damned boat running. Accepting a nut because others'll keep him in check is a stupid gamble.

    You won't have overwhelming force at 20%. You'll have the military of the 1930's. Tell that to any wounded servicemember who's been treated at Landstuhl. Our bases in Europe enhance our logistical reach to the messy part(s) of the world. Our prepositioned stocks in Norway were used to support...

    I wasn't the one who brought up his military experience - I just tempered it. Paul's military experience and McCain's, for example, are worlds apart. How much legislation has he passed in 30 years in congress? Where do you get that I joined to "see places"? I'm not really hankering for a...

    I joined a service whose raison d'etre is expeditionary warfare. Yes, there's many different ways to support and defend the Constitution, but this is the one I chose, because in our current time, it's the one I judge to be most important. I'm not a one issue voter, but I certainly do have my...

    Ron Paul

    He talks all the freaking time about cutting military spending. He intends to solve the "spread thin" problem by bringing everybody home. http://www.321gold.com/editorials/taylor/taylor031706.html I won't delve into his other issues, but his stance on the military is very relevant to this...

    Ron Paul

    I am puzzled by the extent of military support for a candidate who wants to slash defense spending by 80% and pull the military back to CONUS. That's not the military I joined. If I wanted to sit in CONUS and police the border I would have joined the border patrol.

    Preserving Your Navy Photos

    I'm fairly certain Google's picasa service will be around for a while. I personally rely on an external hard drive, and a private website maintained by a buddy who I have some faith will keep it around for a while. Uploading is a pain in the ass, though, and I reserve it for stuff I intend to...

    It's not a Marine Corps-wide thing, just a course we came up with as an interim functional fitness test (shamelessly stolen from the OCS Combat Readiness Test), because a Major had an idea.

    Cuckoo bird brings (the Honorable) Hillary Campaign to a standstill

    Very well. Then to clarify, we are a FEDERAL REPUBLIC. So unless you consider the states to be an archaic construct, then there is a very good reason for the Electoral College. Besides, if you dismantle that, you might as well dismantle the Senate, too, since it's not fairly "representative".

    Cuckoo bird brings (the Honorable) Hillary Campaign to a standstill

    We have direct election because it is a simple system. Unfortunately, it ends up polarizing into our two-party system, which is not what our forefathers intended. That is a mathematical consequence of a simple plurality vote. Clinton won in 1992 partly because Perot divided the Republican vote...

    Cuckoo bird brings (the Honorable) Hillary Campaign to a standstill

    1. Because it works. 2. You're an idiot if you think that the electoral college renders campaigning useless. Yes, yes, we all know by now that popular vote doesn't determine the election. Guess what? They still have to win support. Unless you imagine that the electoral college will all of a...

    That's drastically different from the Combat Physical Readiness Test I saw promulgated from the MACE, which they claimed to be replacing the PFT(1mi run, 1min knees to elbows, standing broad jump, 300m shuttle run, 1min pushups, 1min squats, all in boots & utes). Are there two Combat "Tests"...
