Andrew Breitbart is still a fucking sleazebag.

Lawrence Eagleburger passed away this weekend. He is one of the few professional Foreign Service officers to rise to become Secretary of State. One of the things that gets lost in the whole stupid debate about the debt ceiling and the federal budget is that there a lot of folks

You can now follow Skippy-san on Facebook! Some ass-wipe stole my nom-de- guerre on Twitter, so when you get those crotch shots, they are not from me! Come help me fill up my wall!

Another good sea story-repeated from another post I made at another blog-a long time ago and in better times: A long time ago and in a galaxy far away…………… The term did not have the same perjorative meaning that it has now. This post is not about a neocon. Its

Today was an interesting day. Not interesting in a good way, interesting in a reaffirmation of bad choices, kind of way. And, as an extra added bonus, I get to spend the rest of the month wondering who my employer will be come July. Or if I will even be

I’ve been out of pocket this weekend-down in Pensacola, playing golf at AC Read, watching the boats go across the sound, and catching up with some friends. He let me in on some very sad developments happening in our Navy-which I will proceed to document later this week. This, however,

Our boy Allen West is at it again-wading knee deep in to the mud of hypocrisy. The House on Thursday narrowly shot down an amendment to scale back military operations in Afghanistan, highlighting growing congressional opposition to the war. In a close 204-215 vote, the House rejected a bipartisan amendment

I have been watching with considerable interest, the generally unhinged reaction of many prominent mil-blogs and other commentaries about President Obama’s speech last Thursday regarding Israel and the Palestinians. It would be funny, if the consequences were not so serious.
