There are also no longer any Taco Bells in Arlington County. Today, all of us Arlingtonians are hungry Meximeltless Cubans.

Because the facing and logo for Taco Bell is modeled after the Alamo, and Cuba does not want to buy tacos from that fascist pig-dog capitalist, Davey Crockett.

“Air Foce [sic] Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz also expressed concerns Tuesday about repeal: ‘This is not the time to perturb the force that is, at the moment, stretched by demands in Iraq and Afghanistan and elsewhere without careful deliberation.’”

He can’t be talking about the US Air Foce. They don’t have jackshit to do in Afpak except bring supplies to the real fighters on the ground and collect “flight” pay for raining down bombs on weddings from the trailers in Nevada where they drive the drones.

Now the Navy — you wouldn’t believe how hard these wars have been on them!

Let me make this easy for John McCormack: McCain is in a death struggle with his opponent to out-pander his teabagger opponent. Therefore, he will not agree that the military is OK to repeal DADT until the joint chiefs do YMCA on YouTube. Hope that clears things up.

But you know what DOES have a McDonalds?

Gitmo. Let freedom reign!

Let me guess , 1200 pt red font headline at Huffpo. I refuse to go over there. I heard there’s a slide show of Olivia Wilde on all fours, and I’ve exceeded my wank quota for the day.

Sorry Palinbots. I guess you’re stuck with Huckabee, Mittens, and Pawle……ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzZZZ *snore*

Those tricky Israelis, why didn’t we think of that and just declare Afghanistan and Iraq National Heritage sites. It would have been a lot easier and less costly than all the killing and occupying.

General Casey just doesn’t know what might happen if DADT is repealed and his army of hot, buff, nearly hairless camo-clad young men is invaded by gays — though his biggest fear is that calling “no homo” will cease to have any meaning at the Wednesday afternoon circle-jerks.

“What you do not see in Cuba,” they write, is “McDonalds.” And fat people.

“Transformation imposes costs on some opens up opportunities for others, and there’s a chance that restructuring our energy economy in a more sustainable way can also ameliorate some of the longstanding inequities in our economy.”

I can haz translation, plz?

[re=518970]WadISay[/re]: Methinks a performance of “In the Navy” would be far, far more appropriate.

I am going to Cuba next month. My intention is to make Michael C. Moynihan gouge out his own eyeballs, and to kiss Fidel Castro on the mouth.

[re=518966]V572625694[/re]: Which is why the title of the joint Navy/Air Force conference next week is “Looking Busy in the Global War on Terror”

If Cuba wants McDonald’s, they’ll have to go to Gitmo to get it and you know what happens there!
