The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

This board also believes that the current Pentagon is stupid because you all hate Hegseth. That's fine. It's also a misunderstanding of how Pentagon planning and decision making are working, but whatever. If you don't think that US ships should be passive targets -and- you want the strait open by force, what would that entail? What would we have to do?

Keggy is stupid because he is worthless. Spankee calls the shots--and he is REALLY incompetent AND incompetent, with ZERO ability to see beyond a cheeseburger or chicken. Same for Just Dunce.

The Pentagon military can NOT do what needs to be done. There is ZERO "rational" thinking about a specific (set of) realistic objective(s), so the Pentagon is unable to act.

The US does NOT have enough munitions to clear a large coastal area in Iran. So, that means GROUND TROOPS. DRAFT MAGA !!

And there goes MAGA, going for their guns and ammo to shoot Spankee and anybody else who wants to draft them or their kids and send them to Iran.

Pretty close to "the shores of Tripoli", though. AND "sunny tropic scenes" !! LOL !!! The problem is MAGA is NEVER "on the job". They ARE "on welfare", though !!!
