I know full well the folly of placing women in front line rolls. The military was looked at as a place for women to make their mark of equality with men by the Women's Rights groups in the 1970's, and pandering to N.O.W. and liberals by stupid politicians looking only to get elected after that. It has been THE number one absolute worst thing that has happened to the military in our country's history. The left has emasculated the military, and the leadership of the military up through the Clinton years were all about being afraid for their jobs. I.E. - they weren't being warriors. It is only because of the leadership of the upper enlisted ranks that the younger enlistees get any good training. Most officer types are too busy playing politician to really be a warrior.

He never would have led our boys in Iraq, because he would have been set up by a Claudia Kennedy type, and forced into retirement long before that. Feminists have sought to take over every American institution, and so far, they're batting damned close to 1.000. That has a lot to do with Muslims thinking that American men are all p-----s.
