1-star fired as head of Ariz. Air Guard
Before you dig the hole deeper, you should probably take note (and correct me if I'm wrong) but Rainman is a Guard guy.

US Budget Simplified
One thing that is often overlooked is how much foreign debt we OWN. As of 2010 that number was $6.8T- that's how much other nations owe us. That's more than what we owe to foreign nations. To put it in OP's terms: We owe $142K on the Visa card but we have a $68K credit on the Mastercard.

"No Easy Day" - Book revealing details about Bin Laden Raid (Neptune Spear)
Love the hypocrisy of Fox News for outing this guy's real name when earlier they were slamming the Obama administration leaking info on the raid and risking the lives of the SEALs who were involved in the op.

I'd prefer if the security officers protecting federal offices didn't have any ammunition in their firearms. Lets see, 174,000 rounds by 41 federal buildings equals roughly 4200 rounds per building. Estimate anywhere from 5-10 security officers for 24/7/365 coverage... sounds about the right amount of ammo for routine use and emergencies.

- Gunman kills 6, injures others in Sikh temple in Wisconsin
Are you denying there are people who confuse Sikhs and Muslims? Are you denying people have a problem with Muslims? Did I say this shooter was one of those people? No. I answered his questions as to "who has a problem with Sikhs". BTW, the ATF's preliminary assessment is it's domestic terrorism and the shooter is ex military.- Gunman kills 6, injures others in Sikh temple in Wisconsin

Short answer: No. It's only illegal to videotape somebody if there's a reasonable expectation of privacy. For example: in your own house, in someone's bathroom, at the tanning salon, etc I'm pretty sure there's cameras in that Chick-Fil-A for security reasons, so there's no reasonable expectation of privacy when the company is also filming you. If you're in public anyone can videotape you as long as it's not done in a lewd manner (i.e. up a female's skirt).- WTF? (**NSFW**)

- RAINMAN A-10 Is approaching his 5000th Post!
If you count the number of posts worth reading his number is actually closer to 10... oh wait, that's me. Never mind.- Misawa F-16 down
Not much of a story to tell. I was driving around the hammerhead on my way to work, watching the E3 take off headed away from me, saw them bank left when they were airborn (as per usual at that strip), watched it just "slide down" into the trees while still banked and then the subsequent fireball.- Misawa F-16 down
I was in Misawa this weekend. I flew out a couple hours prior to this incident so it hit somewhat close to home. I was a witness to Yukla 27 and don't wish to be anywhere near another accident again. That incident still haunts me.- Mass Shooting in Aurora Colorado

To close for comfort... flew out of Misawa Saturday evening. Glad to hear he's ok. - Gunman kills 6, injures others in Sikh temple in Wisconsin
