Don’t we already have a military AND a National Guard? What would this groups purpose be? To make sure no radio hosts accidentally booked Stanley Kurtz?

He was talking about the National Guard - he was pandering to a bunch of veterans about making the National Guard units as well-funded and well-equipped as the active duty units, only he kept screwing up the nomenclature. That's the bigger issue, the guy doesn't even understand the National Guard, it's role, and it's functions.

He also seemed to think that we could magically produce the money to put every National Guard unit on par with their active duty parent divisions. We simply can't do it. The money needs to go to active duty divisions, and it needs to go towards National Guard units deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan.

"What would this groups purpose be?"

  1. Ask for your papers
  2. Break things
  3. Confiscate Firearms
  4. Build Ovens
  5. Guard concentration camps
  6. Operate the showers
  7. Collect art
  8. Burn books

There are lots of things they would be good at.
