  1. Similar vein:
  2. Classically liberal and the current "liberal" ideology are not the same, for sure.
  3. Of course the Russians don't deny it; it benefits them, in their mind, to claim it either way. Just like when the Taliban claims random things in Afghanistan, it furthers their cause.
  4. Pretty sure they've been messing/attempting to mess with our election process in some way shape or form since at least '48. Seriously, like they weren't trying to subvert the process in their favor during the Cold War? And not once in that time did the candidate they found more favorable win (although probably not at all related to their efforts)? Bullshit. Nothing new; correlation is not causation.
  5. Interesting approach to interview: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/landing-airplane-john-glenn-copilot/
  6. Nice try OSI
  7. Could've been VM.
  8. Hmm, weird. When will Soros go away already?
  9. That's what I read, which sounded wrong, so I tried to keep my jump to conclusions mat put away. I am curious, though.
  10. The Air Force is also subject to a bunch of stupid government contracting restrictions that Delta is not. Having to award so many contracts to small business or minority owned companies etc, instead of finding the best company to do the job and being able to actually hold them accountable.
  11. Put that deep learning algorithm to work.
  12. And the world looks just the same And history ain't changed
  13. Happens.
  14. Free Thought Under Siege Could be the Air Force, frankly.
  15. Go back and read; the original advice you're looking for is waiting to be provided if you want it. The OPR/PRF bs was a byproduct of a completely different branch of the discussion that you bit off on. Beerman Step 1: what do you want?
  16. My personal favorite is still the Air Force Birthday chow hall menu from an undisclosed location with the J-10.
  17. John Kennedy, conservative for US Senate...in a commercial on how powerful the US military is. Nice work.
  18. If looking for some reading recommendations and haven't seen it, Mattis has a few words on the matter: https://www.businessinsider.com/viral-james-mattis-email-reading-marines-2013-5
  19. What was the points system?
  20. Or any other AFI/pubs change, to include ones that would improve mission effectiveness or safety procedures. You know, the things we do when we fly, in the Air Force. Priorities.
  21. I'm sure there are many, but on a recent out-the-door-to-deployment speech, his message was roughly: "Don't f this up, my reputation depends on it." How did you get 4 stars? Oh, wait, apparently that CYA mentality is how. A far cry from a Patton ("You don't win by dying for your country, you do it by making the other poor bastard die for his" stuff) or Eisenhower ("I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle" stuff) in the leadership category.
