Maybe the military just doesn’t use the Hopium Pipe as much as 0bama.

As I sit here with my Imperial U.S.M4 ~ sharper than a razor ~ it occurred to me that only an ignorant sissy-boy would mock such a weapon...

News from the future

October 29, 2012. All military contracts with Today Bayonet Inc. have been cancelled. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta stated that the reason was "they didn't know when to shut up" and that they "were insufficiently worshipful of the President". Marine drills will be changed to use hand made pointed sticks for close combat training.

0bama doesn't think bayonets are useful instruments of war anymore?

He should tell that to Gaddafi.

Obama will be instructing the EPA to declare bayos as an endangered species and direct the agency to outlaw any and all devices, such as nets or traps, specifically designed to catch them.

New EPA regs: No more bayonets or bayotraps.

An excellent education for the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF would be to parachute him into Benghazi with a bayonet and just as much ammo as U.S. Ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty, and Sean Smith had.

That would be justice!

I want to hear more about those newfangled ships that go under water! And those boats that airplanes can land on sound pretty cool, too!

What are those pointy things at the end of their rifles?

Sept. 11, 2011

President Obama walks past an honor guard line with Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta in Arlington. Behind them are first lady Michelle Obama and Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

every Marine is STILL required to complete a bayonet training program

I keep reading about Marines using bayonets in response to Obama's comment. Doesn't the army infantry still use them as well?

http://www.army.mil/factfiles/equipment/individual/bayonet.html


Mission Defeat the enemy in hand-to-hand combat. Also used as a general field and utility knife. Entered Army Service M6 (1957), M7 (1964), M9 (1987) Description and Specifications The M6 bayonet-knife is used as a bayonet on the M14 series rifle and as a hand weapon. The M7 bayonet-knife is used as a bayonet on the M16 series rifle, the M4 carbine and as a hand weapon.

He should also get educated that aircraft carriers and boats that go underwater cost a lot more than a sailing ship.

I think Obama mentioned the Bayonet because its training includes the ‘Buttstroke’. Which doesn’t mean what he thinks it might.

He adds, “[Bayonets] are still distributed to the military all the time — he should get educated on it.”

The Food Stamp President has degrees from several prestigious universities, but not much of an education .... the best he can claim is “lawyer” which is equivalent to a pooper scooper at a rodeo.

From this day forward, only Corpse-men will be issued bayonets.

So much fertile ground to plow here in addition to the "spirit of the bayonet":

Yes obummer there are aircraft carriers and airplanes do land on them. They would be dead ducks if they weren't surrounded by a multi-ship task force for protection and support. Each carrier battle group can consist of 8-12 ships in addition to the carrier.

All submariners would rather be shot than call their submarines "ships" as you did. They are "boats".

And finally, yes Mr. know it all, they are riding horses in Afghanistan.

It doesn't look like you did learn much as CiC after all...

"According to the official U.S. Marine Corps website, every Marine is STILL required to complete a bayonet training program … because “the weapon becomes just as effective [as a rifle] in close combat situations.”

Very strange. Apparently some folks in the Marine Corps have never checked the fit of bayonets on their current primary battle weapon, the M4. They do not fit! They haven't fit since the Corps exchanged their M16's for M4's.

Today's bayonet is nothing more than a fancy fighting knife that can not be attached to the Marines basic weapon.
