Okay people, I’m ex-Army and ex-Air Force, and I have a great deal of respect for both services. I also have a great deal of respect for the United States Marine Corps, and the Coast Guard. Yeah, that’s right, I left the Navy out of that equation.

Why you ask? Because I have had the misfortune of working with the Navy. They don’t believe in a military haircut, they don’t believe in a standard uniform, they don’t believe in basic military discipline, they don’t believe in managing their resources. They also can’t do their goddamn jobs!!!

What did they do bring themselves to my fucking radar? Well, you could say they didn’t do their job (again). The Pacific Fleet was out on exercise, and was taken by complete surprise by a DIESEL POWERED SUBMARINE under the Chinese flag. A diesel fucking sub! Ancient fucking technology! Yet our fine men and women of the US Navy couldn’t fucking find it! Probably because they were trying to figure out what fucking rank their own fucking captain was!

A diesel submarine people! Do you have any idea on how monstrously stupid a mistake that is? Have you any fucking clue how much money sits in a naval fleet in the form detection system specifically designed to pick up enemy craft? And they still can’t fucking do it!!! Fucking sad.

People, I must go now. I need more fucking coffee and maybe booze to deal with this fucking screw-up by our naval power. Christ on a fucking crutch.

Out.

You know people, I’ve been saying for some long time now that no matter how great your defensive measures are, there will always be a better offensive, eventually. It applies to everything, from software companies trying to beat keygens and the distribution of software for no charge, to banks trying to make the thief proof system, to our inept fucking government trying to defeat would be terrorists. Like software companies and banks, our government has failed, is failing and will fail. All you need to do to find irrefutable proof is look to the gems working over at the TSA.

As I’ve said before the TSA is full of blundering imbeciles who can’t find their own ass with both hands and a fucking flashlight. They have failed internal inspections with regularity over the past year, even when they knew about the inspections. They detain secret service agents who wield a toddler drinking water. They harass old women and knitting needles. In short, the TSA is catastrophic failure. An expensive failure.

A normal person (few and fucking far between as they seem to be) would think that our fine and benevolent friends at the TSA would try to correct these serious and awe-inspiring shortcomings. But nooooooo. They choose door number two: marching bravely forward into the oblivion that is mass stupidity. This, America, is the result of billions of dollars, your tax money. Aren’t you happy with what your money is spent on?

Now, again (still), the TSA failed yet another inspection. This time liquid components were smuggled through. LIQUID COMPONENTS! They won’t let you take a bottle of Scope with you, or god forbid, a sippy cup with some fucking water in it, but apparently, it is perfectly alright to bring along all the requisite materials to make a bomb, as long as they are liquid. You bring on solid components and you are just plain fucked. Maybe.

Ellen Howe (you remember her right?), assistant adminishitter for the TSA attempted to downplay the findings of the report from the Government Accountability Office saying,

“There is nothing in the report that is news to us . . . that we were not working on, or don’t already know.”

Great. I feel much better now Ellen. You know about the problems and you cannot fix them. You can damn sure stop Wendy from having her shampoo on vacation because it’s not in a three-ounce container, but liquid explosives in a quart-sized bottle are cool. Right. Gotcha. Do me a favor Ellen, please, I would really, really appreciate it. Next time you feel like trying to bullshit the American public at least try to come up with something that is half-assed believable, that isn’t a rehash of the same stinking crap you tried feeding us last fucking year when you failed tests, even when you fucking knew about them. You reactionary, power-hungry fucking spooge bucket!

Alright people, I’m out. Here is the link to the latest disastrous fucking failure by these grinning idiots.

Out.

So I thought I’d help you out in that department. Because I hate being miserable by myself. Out.
