One of the reasons we don't pay much mind to what Liberals say about the military is because we served - badly - but for long enough (four years) to be able to say whether or not our men in uniform are accurately portrayed by critics, which is rarely the case. Just as they called the Iraq war "lost" without waiting for the outcome, we're pretty sure the same can be said about their thoughts on Afghanistan - that because the Russians got stuck there, we will as well. What's the flaw in their thinking? Duh:
We're not the Russians!
Case in point, the new XM25 super gun, above. The Russians didn't have it. The Taliban can't defend against it. And we've got it. Some are calling it a "game changer". We think it's "game over". This thing is not only outrageously powerful - it looks cool as shit - and anything that looks this bad-ass to American soldiers is bound to be used with gusto. So go get 'em, boys! Give 'em hell. And we'll be waiting to cheer you when you get home.
BTW - a head-shaking exit question:
Why is Rick Sanchez back on the air?
Hat Tip: Hot Air
