Pam Spaulding highlights an ad that the Pentagon took out in the Washington Post that said the Army is seeking linguists with a specialty in Arabic. Well what a coincidence, you dolts. Maybe if you hadn't booted out every gay Arab-speaking linguist the Army has - and lied to the public to cover up the fact that you had actually booted out 3 times more than you said - you wouldn't be so short-handed. This policy is actually damaging our national security and it's time it was ended.
I am not sure who said it, but a quote springs to mind:
'Military intelligence is to intelligence what military music is to music.'
Military intelligence is, and always has been, an oxymoron. I been dere, done dat, so I can say it.
They (the USAF) kicked me out of a critically undermanned communications job back in '87 because I didn't conform to their 1954 actuarial height/weight chart; I wasn't fat, didn't disgrace the uniform, wasn't unhealthy.
It's been going on for a long time and they seem to enjoy cutting off their nose to spite their face...
