I guess you occasionally feel the need to dig hard for some obscure left-wing stupidity to provide a slight counter-balance to the rampant overt reivh-wing stupidity that drops everywhere like elephant turds on Main Street after the circus parade has passed by.<br /><br />You know what seems significant to me about this? Not the specific details of the maybe-false, maybe-true domestic truck-tank. No, what's significant is that the leftier left-wingers have the same level of paranoia under the Hopey Administration as they did under realPresident Cheney. Granted, people in the Firedog camp are no fans of President Zero (which is why I respect them) but the fact that they'd fear him as much as the previous band of fascists shows how deligitimzed the government has become.

It's sort of like the surplus M1A1 tanks that were left in Kuwait after Desert Storm in 1991, when President George H.W. Bush decommissioned two entire armored divisions at the termination of that little exercise in slaughter and flew their crews home on air transports to be returned to civilian life. Those tanks were used to re-invade Iraq twelve years later. Until the oil runs out, the Empire needs military vehicles in theatre to protect its oil. My guess is that not a single piece of military equipment currently deployed there will ever make it back to the US except as spare parts, like these Navistar rolling chassis that are the result of an "upgrade". (That's actually a *downgrade* in offroad capability, but I'll discuss that later).<br /><br />- Badtux the War PenguinBadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-14636794364863814602012-04-17T08:01:45.435-07:002012-04-17T08:01:45.435-07:00Maybe some Iraq surplus vehicles are being transfe...Maybe some Iraq surplus vehicles are being transferred from DOD to DHS property accounts? In principle, transferring Federal equipment from one property account to another is no big deal. In practice, it's rare that people who need something know people who have it and don't want it. But after a war ends, it can happen.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730892655991613183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-15749459768884715902012-04-17T03:45:11.562-07:002012-04-17T03:45:11.562-07:00If people really want a conspiracy that will cause...If people really want a conspiracy that will cause them to go into contortions, how about the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act (CISPA) that will be voted on by the House on the 23rd?
