Brass!

OOHRAH, Major! I see you were using my notes (again)!

ashley

I'd like to write you in. And I can send my worthless 19 year old brother your way for some straightening up?

Maj Pain

Brass-great minds think alike!
Ashley-let me know what time I need to pick him up:)

How about Constitutional Amendment requiring that our POTUS have honorable US military service for a minimum of 4 years?

anon

Thanks for bringing us these ideas. It never hurts to rehash where we have been and where we are going.

The US military has never been stronger. Could it be due to its voluntary structure? Maybe we should continue to incentivize military service by using a bigger carrot. Seems that military service is still undervalued by many Americans. By increasing the benefits, that could change. Things like preferential acceptance to colleges, professional schools and trade schools, preferential union hiring and a pension plan for every year of service would help. Our military academies could also increase class size--every year hundreds of good students are rejected because it is so competitive to get in.

MissBirdlegs in AL

You got my vote! I'm so tired of whiny-ass people I could squeal!

Tammi

Hell yeah! You got my vote!

Vote

A vote for Maj Pain is better than a vote for Obama :)

Lynn

Great post Maj.P, as usual you're spot on.

Callee

Can I vote for you? Please? Anyone who advocates John Wayne gets my vote.

I love it! Awesome post!

chtrbx - I think Taco would do much better at Sec. of State. Or, maybe John Bolton. I LOVE Dr. Rice, but I think the job needs someone who , er... lacks diplomacy. I can just hear Taco asking Achmedoushibag "Give me one good reason why we shouldn't nuke your sorry ass country."

Using the DNA theory again, could we have Gen Patton for SecDef? Maj. P, you've really started something here!!!!

We need Terry Tate where I work "quick, fast & in a hurry" to quote a different Major Payne (Damon Wayans). Four people here took a two hour lunch yesterday, then took a 1/2 break to discuss it when they got back to the office...I can already picture Terry in motion!

Maj Pain

YOUR LUNCH IS OVER WHEN THE SHORT HAND GETS TO ONE O CLOCK.............BITCH.(view of Terry Tate chasing the other one down the hall................WHOOO WHOOO THE PAIN TRAIN IS HERE!!!!!!!!!

JM SINCLAIR

I agree brother. As a 4 year Marine Vet, I fully agree. However may I add that ENGLISH should be mandatory to learn in this country. I've been out now for 6 months and turned down for 3 jobs becuase I don't speak that whore language.
