Way To Go Joe



Just saw this on Twitter, and I need people to think about this for a minute:
____________________________
Pentagon: U.S. can get up to a throughput of 30 C-17 evacuation flights out of Afghanistan each day.
16,000 people evacuated in the last 24 hours, about 11,000 of those on military flights.
_____________________________
Have you ever seen a C-17? I know most of my fellow aviation nuts have, but for my friends/family who have not, that is a HUGE aircraft. Absolutely immense. And the USAF is cranking out a full C-17 flight from Kabul every 45 minutes, using a SINGLE runway in enemy-controlled territory, non stop, 24 hours a day right now. This has literally never been done before in the entire history of aviation... the USAF is literally making history. They evacuated more than twice as many people YESTERDAY as we did in the entirety of the Saigon evacuation in 1975.
Anyone who wants to pop off about this being a failure needs to shut their piehole unless it's to commend the incredibly hard working men and women of the US Air Force, and the ground forces supporting their mission. It started rough, no denying that, but in less than a week, the situation has been stabilized and the mission exponentially increased to a tempo never before seen, not even during WW2. The part that gets me is the logistics of supporting this mission - the ground crews are going full throttle right now, bringing in fuel, oil, fluids and servicing the aircraft as best and as fast as they can. What they are achieving right now is nothing short of incredible.

Bejing Biden reversed many of Trump's policies, but he blames Afghanistan on Trump? Why didn't he reverse this. The liberals want to take away our guns, but leave all this ammunition, weaponry, etc. in the hands of the Taliban? The majority of the people airlifted out are not Americans. And how do you justify the deaths of 13 of our service people. Please address this part of Joe's fiasco. Yes, he should hang his head in shame. Even the liberal media think he's a fool.

mary, why in the world would you ever waste your time visiting my blog?

The only fool here is you, Mary ... just another Trump ass kisser and loser.
You can thank G.W. Bush for the disastrous Afghanistan debacle and further effed up by Trump! Biden is doing his level best to do the right thing for both our country and the Afghans who are desperate get the hell out of that country! They are willing to give up their County for their lives!

@mary:
- Thou shalt not bear false witness - chump: 33,000+ lies in 4 years
- Thou shalt not commit adultery - chump 5+ times; 3 wives + at least 2 other women

How sad it must be that scientists, scholars, historians, medical professionals have devoted their lives to deceiving you, while a reality TV star with decades of documented lying is your only beacon of truth and honesty.

plus mary...being a bible-thumping christian, shouldn't you be spending your sunday doing something better than pushing lies and slandering biden? like something nice with jesus?

Thank you for that. Most interesting. My husband used to be in the RNZAF and has seen these planes visiting New Zealand and says they were Huge. Sounds a wonderful effort.

I find your blog really educational about what is happening in the U.S.

Biden made mistakes, he mishandled quite a lot of things in Afghanistan, but at least he tried and is trying. In the end, he is working his best to get out of a mess. During his presidency, Trump sat on his fat ass and spent his time tweeting about how great he was.

Mary, you're babbling and lying while not making any sense. It would take too much time to show you how you're wrong about everything you said.

I went over to Mary's blog to tell her to eff off, but it appears she hasn't posted anything since 2019, so I'll tell her here to eff off in case she comes back. And also, get a clue Mary it was one of your own, namely George Bush, who started this war. Joe Biden is just finishing up what Donald Trump and Mike Pompeo couldn't. Trump and Pompeo negotiated with the Taliban, Biden did not. How soon you forget. It appears Donald "the loser" Trump starts a lot of things but is too stupid, clueless, weak and pathetic to finish them. Donald "tiny hands" Trump is the one who should be hanging his head in shame Mary, not Biden. Biden is cleaning up the republican's mess. Also, didn't Trump call our military losers and suckers? Again, how soon you forget. So eff off, Mary!
So I comment, and people want to F me off, assume they know my political party, and criticize the way I spend a Sunday. You bring Trump into this conversation, but not one comment was made to support what is going on in Afghanistan or what Biden has done to open border with Mexico but shut the border to Canada.

What do I spend time on this blog? To be honest, I rarely read it.

After seeing what Biden has done since he got the job as president, I want to thank him for not doing anything for 47 years.

Spend time researching what you are told whether it's from the right or the left. World leaders, both sides of the aisle, and liberal media are condemning Biden for his job with Afghanistan. It's not just me.

What to go, Joe!

Joe Biden has always been a racist. I have watched him for years in the senate. This demented fool is responsible for 13 of our boys killed in Kabul. First casualties in 18 months.
Richard said…
Let's not worry about Neat & Tidy. Let's not worry about Tewshooz either. They are busy dealing with issues and i was told not to kick people when they are already down.
Speaking as a survivor, if my mom was name Neat & Tidy, i would run away from home.

To Scary Mary and Tewshooz, maybe you 2 should read; OCTOBERFARM Sept. 1, 2021
"It's Finally Over" and get educated. You 2 are more to be pitied than laughed at....but I can't stop laughing long enough to pity you!
