It's all good, brother. You and I are cut from different cloth, and have different opinions. I took an oath to serve, protect, and defend. I have no doubt that you would do the same for me if I ever needed you to do so.

Now, back to our snowball fight...

63 Canadians and 3 Brits were killed, you know our NATO partners? So far US, Canadian, and European security folks are saying it was a mechanical failure only the Ukrainians are saying right now they haven't seen any evidence of that.

This shi... does not concern the USA. Let the Canadians handle their own citizen's matters. It's like trying to be involved in a police investigation that is in another law enforcement's district or jurisdiction. If they don't have the c-o-jones to handle it themselves that is their problem. Trying to prop up Trudeau like he's little brother while he disrespects our leader every chance he gets.

G'night, y'all. Boat class in session. Tomorrow, I have to go get on a boat with 3 students, at 30+ knots, under circumstances in which they will do their absolute best to kill me. Having already survived two ejections, a broken shoulder, broken hip, numerous lacerations, contusions, and unplanned trips to the ER, and having swallowed enough salt water to float a battleship, you'll excuse me if I beg off to get a good nights sleep before I try to cheat death once again tomorrow.

This is why luther, lg, el, and others do not bother me here. I've pooped more salt than they can throw my way.

Life is so much more exciting when every day is a test to get to the next one...

More than Dems are voting for it, House and Senate. Party lines finally breaking down. That's a bad sign for Trump.

Not if he signs off on it. When will you accept defeat in the we know exactly what the president will do here games? Your side looks stupid when he spikes the football in your face.

I thought by now everyone got the memo stating that it's just fine & dandy when a Democrat does the killing.

U.S. Drone Involved in Final Qaddafi Strike, as Obama Heralds Regime's 'End'

"Carney said the president made the "right decision" to work with U.S. allies. "I think this is a day not to engage in politics," he added.
"Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle hailed the news as a milestone"
"The United States has stepped up the use of Predator drones in several other countries, including Pakistan and Yemen. A drone was credited with killing American-born radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in September."

Butterfly effect, then. The drone strikes led to Qadafi hiding in a culvert, where Libyan rebels found him before dragging his body through the streets behind a vehicle. Obama practically held the gun to his head while Clinton pulled the trigger.

If you cannot correlate that we were complicit in killing him and overthrowing the regime, you are not being clear. Bombing and regime change without any authorization from Congress at that.

That statement keeps bothering me. The plane doesn't show up in the video until the explosion. I could see that a first missile shoot could get his attention; but if it hit the plane, it didn't appear to have caused damage resulting in flames. Then again maybe he could see more with the naked eye than the video could capture. Something about it all still doesn't feel quite right.

For kicks, here's a pic I took years ago during my Army days. Missiles fired nearby do get your attention.

I think these missiles are intended to detonate near the aircraft creating a shrapnel cloud. If you watch the video of the crash the right wing/engine is fully engulfed. My guess is this guy heard the boom from the first missile detonating and then got his phone out.
