  1. Oh yeah! I remember one of the block 30 F-16 drivers showing me one when I visited the unit... I guess the F-22 guys finally got fed up with flying the deadliest airplane but not looking the coolest in the cockpit. :)
  2. The JHMCS 2? Or something entirely different? Also, do F-15C's get them?
  3. Best comment on that video: "If America is FIRST, and the Netherlands is SECOND, than Germany is the THIRD reich?"
  4. SNL could learn a lot from the Netherlands. They make fun of Trump without sounding like a bunch of butthurt little children, unlike our media.
  5. At least your second statement is accurate.
  6. I liked the line "We're gonna take people off of welfare and put them back to work"... I'm sure that scared the sh!t out of a lot of people today... More "peaceful protesters" bashing windows, setting everything on fire, and shooting into crowds are close to follow I'm sure...
  7. 6/9 PCSM.... What? Think those guys were like "Eh, I don't want to be a pilot anyway..." then propped their feet up on the keyboard and ate potato chips for 1.5 hours...
  8. Deep down they know why they lost.... But they also know if you say her name 3 times you'll summon her and "commit suicide" by stabbing yourself in the back 69 times (most of which will be after you are already dead).
  9. I've been told the Eurofighter looks beautiful... on radar at least.
  10. Paul Ryan when asked if he doubted the intelligence community’s assessment that Russia meddled in the presidential election: "...Russia didn’t tell Hillary Clinton not to go to Wisconsin or Michigan. They didn’t put the server in her basement or put the stuff on Anthony Weiner’s laptop...” He went on to throw a bone to the intelligence community and say how he trusts their assessment and whatnot... Just thought his quote was a direct hit to the quibbling the Clinton campaign has been spewing to explain why it's not her fault she lost.
  11. THIS. But if anyone is looking for a participation trophy, I think a nice trial run would be giving Clinton control of (1) every state north of Penn., (2) every state on the west coast except for California (geographically about even), and Chicago... The trial will last 8 years and everyone's a winner!
  12. Sorry, but I don't even want to hear talk of a popular vote until we raise the abysmal voter turnout way higher. Also, what happens if the popular vote reveals that all those people in California and New York who didn't vote were all Republicans? Maybe they didn't vote because they know their state/county is going to go blue anyways. Obviously that's a long shot, but are we going to keep flipping which vote is more important based on who decides to b1tch loudest at the time? The popular vote seems more like mob rule than "will of the people" right now.
  13. The problem with #Calexit is that California is actually one of the most beautiful places in the world, and has some of the greatest resources, despite all the liberal hippie bullshit that goes on there... LA would've become just another Chicago or Detroit if it weren't for all the fvcking money being pumped in there by all the A-list movie stars in LA, tourism, etc. And don't get me wrong... LA, despite everything it has going for it, is trying as hard as it can to become the murder capital of the US (if it hasn't already done so). The only thing saving it is the beautiful area, and the enclaves of richer-than-God people that live in the area. So basically, California isn't going to implode as a result of its retarded policies anytime soon... BUT put all the California dipsh!ts (election protesters) in Kansas for a couple years and see how much they want to secede after that.
  14. I still agree with huggy. Mangled butterfly... Final Answer.
  15. Illinois, my favorite electoral map this year, is a current Democratic stronghold. Let's play a couple guessing games: 1. Where is the city with some of the strictest gun laws located? 2. Where is the city with one of the highest gun-related murder rates in the US is located? HINT: One city is the answer to both questions - sometimes nicknamed "Chiraq" for it's warzone-like atmosphere.
  16. Essay starts: "In a male dominated society, it has become increasingly difficult for women (or those who sexually identify as such) to pull themselves from the proverbial quicksand. However, as progressiveness becomes the new norm, we look to pioneers such as Hillary Rodham Clinton to uproot women from the desolate predisposition in which men have placed them." Easy A
  17. The common ground has been there, but I just don't think the issues dominate politics today. It's a popularity contest. 2008: Dems masterfully slipped in the "first black President". He was the cool new guy and didn't fit the old, grumpy, lack-luster politician look that McCain had going on. 2012: Romney reeked of snobby rich guy, and Obama just put out the zingers during the debate and everyone drooled over the "cool-guy" persona again. 2016: The media shoves Clinton's "credentials" down our throat and calls her the "most qualified candidate in history" - just 4 years after telling us that being qualified wasn't "cool" and that we needed less politicians and more cool guys like Obama that treat the President's podium like a celebrity roast. Also, the moderates aren't in control of the media... So as a moderate Republican, all I hear is: -Don't want to jail/kill a cop for shooting someone who acted like they had a gun, or actually did have a gun pointed at the cop?-> Racist -Want to vet immigrants from a war torn country? -> Islamaphobe -Are you a successful straight white male? -> Everything was given to you. -Unsuccessful woman, gay, and/or black? -> You're not successful because the straight white male dominated system is out to get you.
  18. I honestly believe Trump played the election perfectly. He won the Republican primary by playing on our frustrations with the party elites. Then he continued that strategy and amped up the "any press is good press" tactic when going against Clinton. He basically turned the media so hard against him that they started spouting obvious nonsense 24/7 and calling it "facts". The "fact-checker" they did after every debate was so politically biased it was laughable, and it didn't fool anyone. Then he basically verbalized what every politician has been doing since the day they were born - lying. He said "no I didn't" and "wrong" about a million times, instead of saying "I don't recall" or just switching the topic completely (which is what Clinton did, and also what most politicians do). Finally, he campaigned last minute in a bunch of different swing states when Clinton was probably sipping champagne with billionaires and movie stars, talking about how easy this election was to win. Agreed. I actually love the right vs. left brawl this thread has become. Makes politics so much more interesting. Lay it all out on the table, call me on my bullsh!t and I'll call you on yours. That's the best way to debate.
  19. I'm socially liberal and fiscally conservative as well. With people I consider my close friends, it's about a 50/50 split. My buddies and I are totally brutal to each other on politics, because - and let's be perfectly honest with each other on this one - politics in the US has become a joke. I hate politics, so the only way I really like to talk about it is by being an a$$hole righty... Nothing personal, and if I met you I bet 100% we'd be best buddies in like 2 seconds because I don't talk about politics a lot and I genuinely like everyone I meet until they prove they're a card-carrying douche. You're a fighter pilot; I aspire to be a fighter pilot. I could talk flying and listen to your AF stories forever, trust me. Politics would be the furthest thing from my mind. But in all honesty, Clinton was put in a much better light than Trump was across the main stream media. Denying that the media "leans left", as you put it, is almost as bad as claiming Obama is a plant by the Muslim Brotherhood to bring this country down. I believe that was Michael Savage, and I listen to him on rare occasion to remind myself of how my side of the political spectrum can be filled with lunatics as well...
