But of course if the test revealed the woman had succeeded then he would have accepted the results.
Guy is an ass............

Probably, but I’ll bet that it is someone from the left - consistency is never a big concern for them...

It seems there is a common theme on the Left to deny reality, & to try & force their version of Utopia on the world. It is deadly and cruel.

You know it’s going to happen because the PC imbeciles that run our gov’t are hell bent on destroying us.

Mabus is a fool!

In all objectivity, when our men in the Marines lose their lives in combat, due to a girl (yes, I said that!), send the dog tags directly to this POS, whether at that moment he is IN office, or retired, personally.

____________

That isn’t going to bother this clown. When we lose a Marine due to his lying policies, one of his family members should be executed.

Certainly they matter to us.
I lost a very good friend when the Marines were murdered in Beirut, Lebanon, 1983.

I was there to see his ailing father look at a casket tagged “remains not for viewing”.

Yes, each Marine and soldier is special to me.

Our elected leaders however have no regrets about the life or death of individuals.
To them, service members are pawns to be used and discarded when need be.

I think political leaders should be held responsible for the lives of every service member that serves during their terms in office.

Grieving family members, and friends, try to put the pieces back together even though a key piece of the puzzle of their lives is missing.

Politicians go on to the next deal, the next election.
Nothing changes for them.

Women in combat is just another socialist fantasy that goes way back and has never worked. And just like the communists before them, they have four excuses of why their brilliant religious faith doctrines fail miserably:

1) Not enough funding.
2) Unfair competition, which amounts to any competition.
3) Sabotage.
4) It just hasn’t been done long enough or hard enough.

Importantly, tens of millions of people have suffered, starved and died because of their experiments in failure, and they never, ever learn. Absolute lack of pattern recognition.

After seventy years of this stubborn, bullheaded resistance to abject failure, the Soviet Union was in ruins, a chemical and radiological polluted disaster area. And it still hadn’t persuaded the communists to change their mind one iota.

They are impervious to logic, reason, experiment, persuasion, coercion, and having their noses rubbed in their own excrement while being swatted with a newspaper.

If someone could just figure out some way so that they could systematically kill themselves, and only themselves, as a way to prove to themselves that socialism does work, that person would be a savior of mankind.

For well over a hundred years this misery and death cult has found an endless number of defective units in which to propagate its stupidity. It needs to end.

Soon to come is the pay back for the people conducting the study. They were informed of the expected result and were to tailor the study data, summary and recommendation to expected result ... an arrogant Harvard graduate will not take the b!tch slap to the face lightly!

Mabus was a Squid. Democrat Squids are The Worst.

Must be a case of Man Envy with them Demmie Squids, and Marines.

Why did he bother with the test if he wasn't going to accept the results?

The average difference in athletic ability between males and females is about 10%. That might not seem like a lot, but it's huge.

That means that while Serena might be as much as 5% better than the rest of the female pros, she's still 5% behind the top male players. 5% is a huge gap to overcome when you're talking about the best players in the world.

Jokovic, Federer, Murray, and Nadal are probably 10% better than Serena. The German pro was probably about 5%. That was enough for him to easily trounce the Williams sisters.

A lot more Marines will die in the future than need to die - both male and female.

Thanks, Mabus.

Political Correctness is just murder disguised as cuddly feelings.

No, that won’t happen. The guys will just cap the girls in the buttocks two minutes into the deployment so they can actually get on with fighting.

Sadly, they hold them for Obama and Turkish heads of state.

While Obama jokes about it, no less.

If the combat exclusion is lifted will women be assigned to combat arms units as a matter of policy. Having served in the infantry, artillery and also in logistics, I can tell you the average gal ain’t cutting it in the 1/504th PIR.
