I posted this in the other thread, when I looked up from typing, everyone was gone. :-)
I'm a pretty talented chick. I can change my oil, use a circular saw, fix the toaster, kill bugs, mow the yard, put air in my tires,BBQ, refinish furniture...yadayada. I consider myself to be entirely self sufficient. I support equal rights for women as far as equal pay for equal work, and equal promotion for equal skill.
All that being said...
NO women in combat. It is against the nature of humankind. Men kill, we create.
Men protect, we preserve
Men can bury emotions..We survive by expressing emotion.
Men have an inherent need to protect the people they love... Women have an inherent need to comfort the people we love
Men go off and fight, they are men. They are born for Battle. Women need to be at home for those men when they return from battle. Men need our softness to compliment their strength, they need our tears when they can't shed their own, Men need the comfort only women can provide.
We women are soldiers in our own right, but our battlefield is in the home.

my turn to be an armchair analyst...
We are putting too much faith in 4th ID getting to Iraq in time right now...let me say why
Those vehicles have been on ships for 2 months with no maintenence. A quarter of them won't even start.Some tanks have the wrong engines in them because of the rush to get them loaded into the ships. They do not even have enough batteries for all of them.
Tanks go out on exercises here, after a couple days out, they come back and are on the line (in for repairs) for days on end. They are seriously high maintenence.
We need to add another week to the time it'll take to get the 4th soldiers where we need them because all of this needs to be factored in.
To: commish
well, it does sound like one of helen's lead-ins to a question to Ari, doesn't it?

I thought I'd get a rise out of someone! I didn't mention all I've heard but this should get the blood flowing.

Darn right.
How is my husband supposed to fight, if he's worried about me fighting?
To: Centurion2000
LOL - caught in traffic at 5:45 AM!! Honestly, I try to get behind the keyboard before 6 am - null and void has the weekends!

As an independent woman, I respectfully disagree. A woman's place is found in her own heart.
