I find it odd our board dems don't comment on serious issues and worry about homo rights.

What do you boys propose we cut?

Because the new generation is feminized to the max. Just look at the younger guys in here, and tell me it isn't the truth.

Whoa my friend, a lot of dems are feminized period, regardless of the generation. I think the young generation is more or less handicapped into a certain bully-free pussiness, where everyone gets a participation medal and a nice pizza dinner just for showing up, but you have to lay the blame for that squarely on the generation that sired them. I'm not old enough to be their dad so that would be...

Lol, you guys.

So you're the perfect generation and ye somehow every current problem we have isn't your fault... hmmm

No, I think the blame lies with the teachers/professors. They lay their liberal/pussy agenda on them and they go from there. And believe me Air Force, I didn't teach my kids to be wimps.

Damn those professors teaching our kids things! Everyone knows knowledge and learning are just a gate way to the ho-mo-sexual lifestyle! The only book learning my kids need is from the Bible! In fact, my kids don't need school at all. I'm just gonna teach em to hunt and fish and build stuff! Yeah, and the girl can be taught how to cook and clean! 'Merica!

Really you guys couldn't sound any dumber right now.

Well actually its close between all the science comments in the other thread and this

[DieHardBrownsFan]

I realize you think you know everything, when in reality you don't know shit. But, believe me, the professors have an agenda, and it's always been to make kids not only learn what they are teaching, but also influence their way of thinking.

There's no way diehard and I are in the same generation.

Let me ask you something woody...have you ever been punched in the face?

I'm in no way saying I want to punch you. On this board, I only have interest in punching bunker, but have you?

You should get in a fight. It teaches you stuff about yourself that you might not otherwise learn.

[ballpeen]

There is a lot of truth in that.

I agree with the second part, not the first.

There's only one part.

You suggest that he should get in a fight. I'd argue against that. To the best of your ability, avoid fighting. If you have to fight, make damn certain the other guy will never consider fighting you again.

I spent 40 years in the defense industry. I got and get it! We spend more than the rest of world on defense. What a shame! More than half is wasted monies. The Defense budget tripled the last ten years and we still cannot find an enemy but keep working on making enemies to justify this waste.

Bottom line we tripled the defense budget without increasing capability and it is a fraud wasting our monies

I got a lot of time to discuss why we tripled the defense budget in ten years and got NO resutls

[VaporTrail]

Because we killed all the Nazis 60 god damn years ago. A world war just isn't worth it for the nations involved thanks to globalization of the economy. Time to let go of the military-industrial complex.

[ballpeen]

I have no problem cutting defense spending. As I said in another thread, maybe as much as 20% over 5-8 years.

People do have to realize that is going to cost jobs. There are lot's of needless jobs being supported by wasteful government spending.

Sure, we have to eliminate the proverbial $500 hammer, but in the end there are lots of people at Boeing, GE. etc that will no longer be needed as orders wane.

That's the problem with government created jobs. They never seem to be cut even when you don't need them because politicians aren't willing to hand out pink slips. They sure like to hire people but avoid firing people like the plague.

The Senate voted 98-0 on Tuesday to approve a wide-ranging defense bill that authorizes $631.4 billion in funding for the military, the war in Afghanistan and nuclear weapons.

The Senate bill includes a new round of Iran sanctions, a permanent ban on transferring detainees from the Guantanamo prison camp on Cuba to the United States, and prohibitions on the military detention of U.S. citizens.
