  1. "we are so fucked"

    Well, I guess *so*, if the way our "warfighters" maintain their "lethal edge" is to buzz washed up "musicians" like Kid Rock. I mean, no wonder we haven't done better with Iran.

  2. A sizable number of military personnel are seeking a way out via conscientious objector status because they are being ordered to violate the Geneva Conventions. And, despite the lip service to “don’t follow an unlawful order,” taking that training seriously will put you in a lot of trouble. So the only way out is…to get out.

    We are really fucked.
