| 80. If the US is effing crazy enough to start a land war, there will be a revolt in our military! |
|
Edited on Mon Oct-17-11 01:08 PM by LongTomH
Someone update me on just how many deployments our servicemen and women have had to Iraqnam and Quagmiristan? I'm surprised we haven't had revolts already! Probably we'll just do this with air strikes. The born-again bombardiers coming out of the Air Force Academy will be happy to bomb the heathens back to the stone age!  |
