She has gotta know that units deploying “fully mission capable” is not riding on the “technicality” of taking custody of heavy equipment “in theater” or anywhere else.

What the bill doesn’t tell you is that almost all of the units deploying to Iraq today are technically considered not “fully mission capable” until they have arrived in theater and taken custody of the heavy equipment from the unit they are relieving. Moving all those vehicles and parts halfway around the world takes time, manpower, and money. It’s far cheaper and easier to move men, and match them up with the equipment already in place. Which is why we do it that way.

Marriage “Unless You’re straight”

March 14, 2007 · Filed under Best Blog Comments, Best Blog Entry Today, Honestly, Marriage -Honestly

I can’t imagine anyone not reading Andrew Sullivan. But if you don’t or you missed his link to the Keillor blog post by Dan Savage (who I have never read before) – read it.

People opposed to same-sex marriage are just fucking addicted to double standards. Marriage is about children—unless you’re straight, in which case you can get married without having children. Marriage is about monogamy—unless you’re straight, in which case you can get married and swing and cheat or have threeways. Marriage is about a life-long commitment—unless you’re straight, in which case you can marry multiple times, like Keillor.
