Of course. Because Scty Mabus is an emasculated (but ambitious) toad for the administration.

Manus should require ONLY females in any of his security details. Just to show he’s serious. Also, any of his family members receiving security protection should be women only. Put up or shut up

So, in other words, Ray, the professionals who did the study MUST have been influenced by their own bias, because the scientific conclusions that they did produced do not agree with your bias?

That about it?

Seems pretty clear to me who is biased and for what reasons.

Those MARINES doing the report are willing to lay down their life for this nation...Ray...and so they are going to honestly look at what is best for the nation, and what is best for the Marines defending it...and not through some rose-colored political lens either.

Whereas you...well, you are a political appointee.

I think that about sums it up.

That’s where women can’t take the heat, even if they’re running for prez

You do know that Carly was not the one to complain about that statement, right? It was other people that brought it up and pointed out that it was a juvenile comment to make. Carly said she didn't have time to worry about the comments from Trump.

Marines don’t carry umbrellas. Hope that doesn’t catch SECNAV’s eye.

1998: Karsten Braasch vs. the Williams sisters

Venus competed in a "Battle of the Sexes", along with her sister Serena Williams, against Karsten Braasch at the 1998 Australian Open, who at the time was ranked 203th. A decade and a half younger than Braasch, who was described by one journalist as "a man whose training regime centered around a pack of cigarettes and more than a couple bottles of ice cold lager."[56] He nonetheless defeated both sisters, playing a single set against each, beating Serena 6–1 and Venus 6–2.[6] Braasch said afterwards, "500 and above, no chance." He added that he had played like someone ranked 600th in order to keep the game "fun."[7]

Reality & truth mean nothing to these Leftists.

They can't afford to let reality & truth intrude - their entire worldview is ga-ga.

So they demand we accept it instead. One day soon they'll be making their demands at the point of a gun.

OKAY, lets find out which is true. Have an all female unit compete against an all male unit and a mixed male and female 50/50 unit. Have the people inhabiting the units be randomly assigned. Study the results, publish and abide by the results.

What makes you think anyone in command really cares?

Mabus is there to assure two things:
1) Equality of Outcome
2) His own continued employment.

If those two things are accomplished, what do a few dead Marines matter?

This ain’t our former military.
Grunts die so their CIC can feel good about himself.

In a cost saving measure Ray is issuing beanie-copters to troops.

He’s ordered them to ignore the laws of gravity and use the caps to move across the battlefield.

*****************************

Obama has a good part of the country so inflamed and angry that I think people will be pointing (loaded) guns back in their direction. Not everybody, but enough to cause another civil war.

Better yet, just train an all female combat unit, a homo only combat unit and a combat unit comprised of every other kind of oddball sexual deviate.

Then put them out in real combat on the front line.

I do know that. You’re right.

I’m just struck by the irony of people even Krauthammer making such a big deal out of a little mudslinging and it’s because she’s a girl.

Trump is going to insult a lot of people in the next year and in the years that follow.

And a lot of people will make fun of him.

They’re defending her because she’s a girl while they’re trying to get women into roles they are not suited for.

A girl can be president (a woman) just as well as a guy if she’s suited for it, but combat training like in the SEALS simply takes upper body and overall strength we girls do not have.

If we did, then women would play football and baseball professionally or on college teams, but since those are money making organizations no girls allowed.

I am a female. so I’m just saying, I think there should be all boys organizations as well as all girls’

I think a female can be president, but voting someone in for identity is a mistake

Carly I have no problem with.

It’s the reaction

Which president commissioned an investigation of the dangers of marijuana, and when the results back negating the premise, promptly denounced it? Reagan?
