This is an ugly piece of trash in so many ways. Shame for posting it.

Women have a place in the military, just not anywhere near the sharp end. My retired Army wife wholly agrees with this assesment, and even promotes it.

Women do not make for natural warriors, unless their offspring is threatened. Then you had better be good at duck and cover!

I suspect the Clintons had a lot more to do with it than language skills.

the Army were more afraid of offending the political correctness crowd than getting rid of someone unsuitable for command.

Still seemingly true even up through the ranks of the White House and all the ole Clinton hold-overs.

RE: "Janice Karpinski's Bio"

This a vile anti-Semitic site and has NO PLACE on Free Republic. Go back under your rock.

I'd have to look it up again, but I think it was March '03 that she made BG. She made Lt. Col. in '96.

I know that and you know that, but the military apparently keeps tight control of their ammo at stateside bases.

Why would I flame someone I agree with?

You should retract that post....it's from a blatant anti-Jewish source.

I was thinking the same thing. In addition, it should also be retracted because of the cheesy music when the page loads.

Have you been around military bases? By military women standars, she is better than average;^) Also, take 17 years off her age back to 33 or so and doll her up a bit and she wouldn't be that bad.

Extra points for race and gender put certain people at the top of the list.

It's the same way in the federal government and the Postal Service. Department managers are graded in their merit evaluations as to how many diversity appointments they made. A special favorite is "black female" because they get two diversity points for one appointment.

Karpinski is a weasel. Any true leader would immediately step forward and accept the fact that they have failed to lead.

Any commander of the male gender, reserve or regular Army, given the situation Brig. General Karpinski finds herself in would have been removed from command weeks ago. She's an embarrassment to the Army and the officer corps.

My son went through a law enforcement course a couple of years ago. The same thing is happening there. He told me about all the subtle cheating that was done by instructors to help the women perform to the level of the men. Like letting the women shoot while there was still sunlight, but making the men shoot when it got dark. And the physical fitness tests were a joke.

Interesting link. I wonder if there is any truth to it.

I merely did a Google search for "Kapinski Bio" since someone asked about dates of service and that came up, I didn't even read it...crawl back under your own rock.
