Trump Picks Retired Marine General "Mad-Dog" Mattis As Secretary Of Defense
- Thread starter Tsing Tao
- Start date
I understand it is complete sarcasm. It's quite obvious. It's also obvious that your posts are designed to troll (the left) and provoke a response. You offer no content, and as such, even though you are a "rightie", I find your "persona" quite worthless (from what I've read).
It's been a long time since I've drank Tsing Tao. Are you telling me it's now alcohol free? Seriously?
No, I am, that's why I didn't get to drink it. My life is beautiful, but it's not perfect. If I could drink beer it would be perfect. But I can't. So it's just beautiful.
Come on, he's funny. And clever. That's a good thing.
Thanks AAA, I owe you a beer or two now. Please don't get mad at me for saying this but I feel like we are kinda STRONGER TOGETHER!. Who says Hillary has to own that phrase?
From ZH: 16 Quotes of Mattis the left will no doubt go looney over. Keep in mind these quotes were probably made mostly to soldiers in training or battlefield conditions, but the left will take it as dinner conversation of a lunatic. Me? I'm happy there's a real fucking jar head being put in place. Ooorah.

It's great that there is a thread on the General.
He basically joined the US Army at age 19! Totally dedicated to his military career.
Spent his fighting career in , guess where : "persian gulf war", Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan.
He is a big advocate of a war with Iran.
He is really instructive : through him, one gets to understand that
those who are into killing ( each person has preferences)
should dedicate themselves fully and totally into a military career.
Oh, no!!!! Trump talked to the leader of Taiwan!- so says the NYTimes. We shouldn't do that w/out the explicit permission of china.
BS. We can talk to anybody we want to and we don't need permission from anyone. And if the NYTimes thinks we do, it's just one more instance of how pussified the left is.
Imagine. We need permission to speak to someone. Are they kidding? Guess how it started. Jimmah Carter started the policy. Figures. Only the second worst president in history would come up with something so ludicrous.
