I think I'd vomit if I had to touch her.

I would not shake hands with her, nor be be anywhere near a camera with her in focus. You went to an AO that I was about to go.

If that photo is true, then it's simply hilarious !!! She needs to quit embarrassing herself. As much as I like it.

I was never under the impression that 82nd guy's actually went to any SERE school or training. Unless the 82nd is holding a unit level or Batt level SERE on their own. Inquiring minds want to know.

Well, I wouldn't want to get into what I learned at USAF SERE school, but I always took it to mean what snopes.com said; a guy using the crossed fingers to say, "I don't mean this" like a kid would.

I just wonder how much he got ganked around for this by his boss?

It's all about the sound byte...

Watch "Meet the Press" and you'll hear "I've been to Iraq _(insert number here)__ times."

The implication is "I've been there a lot, so I know what's going on..."

You won't hear them say "I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express, but I have no idea..."

I kept both hands on my rifle. Had to be prepared just in case...

Had a tension headache from hell! Until she left, I also prayed alot also...

"Dear God, please help her hurry the f8ck-up! I don't need this sh!t on my watch."

BTW...I said some other funny-ass things over the radio which I'm not going to repeat...at least until she loses her POTUS election bid.

Stay safe.

My concern is not with Hillary's going to Iraq, but that she will almost certainly return to the U.S.!!!
