    Ever notice the only people that ever compliment the gov’t are gov’t employees themselves, to which they constantly do so?

    Had someone come up fast on me in a construction zone last night when I was driving home from the liquor store with my six of Ham’s Tallboys. Speed limit 30. I was a little under so I ticked it up to 31. They got kinda close to my bumper and I do not like that. Instead of getting pissed, I normally try to pull over and let the Bumper Humper pass. No place to pull over and this car behind me just gets closer. Suddenly, God delivers justice. I see cherries and berries burning in my rear view mirror, and closing the distance fast. The local cop shop pulls over the driver behind me and I smiled just a bit.

      Hadn’t heard that in awhile, and I never seen him before.

    With regard to the academic qualifications of the Chief of Naval Operations:
    https://www.navy.mil/Leadership/Chief-of-Naval-Operations/Chief-of-Naval-Operations/

    Geez Louise she is a classic 1990’s “elevated by rank of sex” female “student” who has taken the quick and easy way through an academic system. There are thousands of these women trying to destroy our university system as I write. Who in the heck ever heard of a B.SC of Journalism? How can you do a Bachelor of Science in Journalism? The second telling item is a Masters in Management from Phoenix University. Are you kidding me? Probably the worst “online” learning institution out there. Oh yes, I know they have a couple of buildings, but the content of their Management program is of the Junior college level. You can be certain that it does not include systems science as a part of the management science!!! This is just one more female fraud !! Also, many good classic universities now present online training in business management–she didn’t have to go to this backwater university to do online learning!

    Would someone please show me the “science” involved in the study of journalism? I guess it could be a class or two in psychology–manipulating the reader.

      “She holds a master’s degree in organizational management from the University of Phoenix.”

      Went to the Phoenix site and looked up “organizational management”, 522 listings showed up.
      Jeez LaWeeze.

      https://www.phoenix.edu/search.html?q=organizational%20management

      Is there anything about this gov’t that is NOT fraudulent?

      I’m also doubting whether this criminal gov’t can be fixed, the rot is way too deep.
      More rot than root substance.
      The whole thing needs to be wiped clean, all humans cleansed from the planet, and start all over with a clean slate.

      And next time, have “Built-in” repercussions for infractions, just like any normal “contract” would provide.

      As it is now, gov’t employees are never held responsible for anything as they go about their criminal ways every dam day.

      Anne, out of respect for ladies, I will refrain from the tongue-lashing I’m giving this cunning runt of an admiral in my mind. Glad you pointed out her preposterous resume, and her military career is not impressing me a lot. She’s a DEI hire; next we’ll have CNOs from outside the military. Shudders…

      This on the heels of today’s scandal re: Trump at Arlington. It seems the US Army takes umbrage that he is “campaigning” there. As if: he’s not the president! He’s a former president paying correct and appropriate tribute to honor our dead. Biden did the same (although his time was precious and he had to look at his watch while the flag-draped caskets were borne from the planes at Dover). Neither Biden nor Harris touched the anniversary of the Kabul airport deaths. Ladies and gentleman, I give you: the army brass, who’ve left the building. They no longer serve the constitution or the people (Trump is a 100% bona-fida president, albeit ex-pres, but you address him as president) and feel completely free to shit (sorry fr my language) on him when they feel the need to. It’s wrong, it’s inappropriate, and it’s sedition.

      Yesterday I said to fire the CNO for failing to have a carrier in the WestPac in a crisis moment, and now I’m saying fire the army chief. In Cali and Denver, CO, you have illegal armed gangs in full criminal armed crimes, including the attempted taking over of school buses. Biden/Harris bright this, and meanwhile they are undermining the good order of the standing military. I’m the flipping military, now. I don’t follow rules, and I’m mean as smell.

      All my best, Anne.

        On the 26th I put out two offset rows of flags in my yard. 13 flags in remembering 11 Marines, one soldier and one sailor.

      FWIW, my degree is in Physics and at my university, there were 2 ways to do that: through the College of Arts and Sciences and through the Engineering School. The same course was taught by the same professor using the same syllabus under 2 separate course numbers in 2 separate colleges.

      At graduation, the student enrolled in the Engineering School received a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics, and the student enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences received a Bachelor of Arts in Physics. The real difference between the degrees were in the courses required outside of your declared major. [And I have the BA in Physics.]

      With regard to the CNO’s resume, I started to comment on this yesterday, but dropped it. But since you’ve brought it up, degrees in Journalism and Organizational Management speak to someone running a HR department more than of a warfighter.
