I’d buy tickets to a tank biathlon. Sounds a lot cooler than the regular biathlon (which is actually pretty grueling, if not terribly exciting).

Now the Russians are toying with the the weak Americans. They know they have Obama on the ropes so just for the fun of it they challenge the US to something the US will turn down as being “too militant”, too violent and nasty, too not-reset oriented and only for bullies.

Of course the Russkies will laugh, tip a few shots of Vodka and call Obama a “homo” - all in good fun mind you...

As soon as Obama heard, “bi,” he was all for it.

Back in the day, on a smaller course, this was a regular thing with the NATO forces - the Canadian Army Trophy. It's good training all around.

Destitute and dying old mother Russia is beating the crap out of Obama and the world titters at the disgrace.

Kerry was called out, challenged to a duel. Taking his lace handkerchief from his sleeve and waving it about, Kerry wondered aloud, who will be our seconds for this duel?

Kerry however is no Scarlet Pimpernel, he really is a fop

The Russians are attempting to prove their latest tanks are more than a match for the Abrams. GD’s Abrams upgrade contracts have all been cancelled due to the fact the Army isn’t using the Abrams in Afghanistan. The Army is attempting to retire the tank but Congress won’t let them. This tank affair would be bad publicity for the US.

I’ve seen it once some 5 years ago in Nizhniy Tagil. A local tank builders’ union team toasted either army and rival south Siberian Omsktransmash tank&railcar company’s teams at the time. A lot of fun, a kind of Russian NASCAR. In one of the events earlier army had an American exchange driver from Torgau program on T-80.

Putin can drive the Russian tank, and the Fairy King can drive the US tank.

That would be interesting.

We know that Kerry is a veteran of combat by his own admission he served both in Vietnam and Cambodia. He fought valiantly for the Communists in both theaters and while in Congress fought the United States of America for years.

We had our tank biathlon in Iraq. As I recall,entire divisions of Iraqi Russian tanks were decimated in short order, some even by Bradley fighting vehicles.

Pointless.

Hmmmmm, I was thinking, the odds would be more Russian Tanks vs fewer American Tanks. Maybe we could put in a German Crew, they wrote the book on fighting against greater numbers. Then again if you really want action, get a Polish crew, they’ll do it for fun.
