Doing twenty or thirty years is not based on choice. To do the time it is from love. A love of what you do, for the way of life, for the country. Even now, I retired 30 years ago, when ever I enter a base, I feel more relaxed, calmer, like I am home.

Makes sense. Why damage your own property? Thanks for the education on that PIA.

There's still that comradeship. I suppose one could say the military, active, retired whatever, it's still like one big huge family. We do care about family. I'll admit, even today most of my friends are retired military or have worked for the military as a civilian.

Even where I live is mostly military related. Me, retired Army, my neighbor to the right, retired air force. My daughter lives across the road, dependent of the military. Another retired army lives next to her and next to them a civilian who retired from working for the army after 40 years. The only civilians in my area are a Cambodian couple who live to the right of me.

We tend to congregate together, like I say, as family.

Judging from my experience with event planning (not extensive, by any stretch), it appears Trump's "convention" is going to be a real train wreck. Could be a big reason Propaganda Barbie is choosing this time to skedaddle.

Kellyanne is rightwing - it's all about self-preservation. Those people have a knack for putting themselves first.

Prior to becoming Ted Cruz's failed campaign manager in 2015, and then going over to Donald Trump's campaign, Kellyanne was a pollster. Kellyanne can see what time it is. She sees Trump has no path to re-election and she's trying to save her marketability before Trump sinks the SS Trumptanic.

kellyanne's daughter is suing her parents for emancipation.

Sh*t's gotten real at the Conway household.

Yeah, I loved my job too. But I still don't give a fig about the industry. I guess killing people is far more awesome than building things, to leave you with such amazing feels for an industry designed to deliver the most death in the least amount of time. The excitement, the camaraderie, the machines of death all around you! What's not to love!

I admire the military service's "big family" sense of purpose, unity, comradery, and such. More than any other institution they really do support one another. It's socialism as it should be. You dedicate your working life to them, and they supply everything you need from birth (for dependents) to death including cremation or burial.

Upon awakening this morning I had the sudden realization of the stunning truths offered by the speakers at the RNC's first day of convention.

I am a very bad person.

I am evil and seek to destroy America.

I am a violent and elitist stripper of basic God given rights from the ordinary and beautiful people of this country.

I am the scourge of the ages!

To atone, the least I can do is to vote for Donald Trump, our Savior. After that, I shall vote for Donald Trump Jr., at least until he does away with the foolish practice of voting.

I hope the bombing of Democrat controlled areas can begin soon!

Only that can MAGA!
