Second ~ you are evil, CJ and Marcus! Pure evil, making my blood pressure go up like that!

Well Done!!! Well Done!!!

As some of you know, but most of you don’t, I have represented detainees at GITMO in habeas proceedings and have done a fair amount of behind the scenes work for the ACLU; I have also represented soldiers pro bono in domestic cases during their tours of duty in Iraq and the poppy capitol of the world.

Notwithstanding our disagreements on most issues political, however, I would have come out guns a blazing for CJ on this issue were it true (as would have my colleague Cliff at 1U).

Having said that, I am somewhat surprised at how the entirety of the readership of ASP swallowed the bait, hook, line and sinker. I find this fact to be analogous to how the stubborn 29% still buy what comes out of the Decider’s pie hole, hook, line and sinker!

You have a very obedient followship, CJ, and I trust, therefore, that you will never stray out of bounds of that trust. I am still amazed that not a single on of the readers of the blog (myself included) fact-checked the veracity of your post.

At any rate, well done!

While I can understand an artillery man being ultra-serious about discharging of weapons, if you have visited this blog for any amount of time you surely know that CJ has a…well-developed, devious, sense of humor, as in the dress pattern-as-a-map incident – lol.

Soldiers from time immemorial have played some questionable, nay even cruel, antics upon each other. True brothers-in-arms understand this need to laugh in the face of the unlaughable; those that don’t get this have too much starch in their uniforms!

CJ, this was a classic! Well done, 1SG.

And when they came for the milbloggers, there was no one left to speak out because other milbloggers thought hoaxes were funny so nobody took the threat seriously.

Negligent discharge of weaponized ridicule.
