The did some tests back in the 1960's where they landed a C-130 on a carrier without a tailhook and then took off without catapault. They were testing the feasibility of using them for replenishment or something. Anyway nothing came of it but that shows how little runway those mothers need.

I don't think he meant to be mean. It's just a case of inter-service rivalry.

X42 did know the expression arresting hooker though.

I have every bit as much respect and admiration for the Air Force casualties from Viet Nam as I do for the Army, Marine, Coast Guard and Navy casualties. Even if they were flying for the second team.

That's easy!
Crud vs Stud
Indignant vs Dignity
Sleeze vs Integrity
Liar vs Man of God
Rapist vs Protector of Americans
Whew! Can I stop? There are just too many comparisons.

A funny thing happened on the way to the West Wing Clinton's gag video shows comic side of presidency
May 1, 2000

WASHINGTON -- Just what is U.S. President Bill Clinton doing in the lame-duck days of his presidency, now that he's "yesterday's news"?
According to a video, the president has been washing the presidential limousine, beating Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Hugh Shelton in a game of Battleship, answering the White House phones, bicycling through the corridors and looking extremely forlorn as he walks the empty halls and finds no one in any of the White House offices...

Even if they were flying for the second team.No, they were flying for their country and the belief that democracy is a rare commodity worth fighting for.
Please don't denigrate their memories and service with your sophomoric statements.

The pilot caught the four wire. That's a failing grade, although I think that he could be forgiven considering the passenger. Gee cut the President some slack, that's his first trap.

Please don't denigrate their memories and service with your sophomoric statements.Lighten up! Have you never heard of the rivalry between the services???
That rivalry keeps our forces (by far) the greatest in the world.
When the game is on the line, our servicemen will risk their lives for each other.Between innings, they razz each other.
Don't mess with success!

The only way clinton would've flown was if there was a stewardess to sexually harrass.

I'm just so cooled out.
And I can't believe no one's mentioned this, BUT... there's no need for airbrushing THIS photo!!! Unlike Al Gore's "macho" photo, this one's for real ;)
May God forgive me, I couldn't help it...
