Nads knows military command (aka "inside baseball")

75. Wrong but led seal team six that be a Navy Captain

an O-6, that is where they start to trend R in the officer ranks.

There have been plenty of studies on this and I know it contradicts world views, but lower ranks in both officer and enlisted tend to be more Democratic, while higher ranks trend Republican.

76. Then I will question the fact that he led Seal Team 6

View profile
that be a CAPTAIN, not a COMMANDER.

He might have served as Executive Officer of the unit though, or XO.

He might have led them in the FIELD as well as an operational officer, but led... that implies in command... that is an O-6 billet, not O-5

I know, I know way too much inside baseball.

That said, thank you for putting ass on line Commander...

led, to most civies without any knowledge of this, is the whole team.

That is my objection to this... "led Team Six" language.

Holy shit this woman is delusional.

And FWIW, if by "leans more Democrat" she means closer to 2-1 versus the overall 3-1 Republican, then she MIGHT have a point, but I rather doubt it.

I was a conservative the day I entered boot camp until the day I left.

Oh, and nads?  The exact size of DEVGRU (aka SEAL Team 6) is classified.  However, Dick Marcinko was their first CO, and at the time he was a LCDR and promoted to CDR while he was CO.  There have been Captains and Rear Admirals in charge of DEVGRU.  CO's can be virtually any officer LCDR or above, with ENS-LT known as OIC's (Officers in Charge.) 

Now STFU.

Funny, I went in the military as a dim and came out a conservative. Most of the people I knew were either conservative or just didn't give a damn about politics.
Funny how being a c*%k holster seems to give nads some special inside knowledge of the military. :rotf:

I can relate to what you typed.  In my 28 year career I cannot recall being a part of or even hearing one political discussion. Not one single 'dim' ever jumped out from behind a watertight door to straighten out my thinking, no 'dim' ever accosted anyone in a chow line to convert them to 'dimism', none of that.

Nope, FIVE Star General. Nada is the only person since WWII to have received that fifth one. It was in a super secret ceremony where an undisclosed submarine commander gave her that last star.... and some old milk.

While I'd say I personally was more of a Libertarian than anything else when I first joined, that all pretty well tracks my own life experience in the dot-mil universe.  There were always a few true Libs around, but very damn' few, and scarcer as rank/seniority went up.

I saw something somewhere that said 65 - 75% of the military personal are Conservative. I don't if that is true or not though, as I couldn't find any data to back it up.

That was me as well, although I was more socially conservative than I am now. I've never deviated from staunch fiscal conservative. I'm the same asshole about that now as I was then. Then again, a lot of my values came from being raised by great conservative parents and I was never such a retard to think I knew more than my dad and I damn sure didn't jump at the first chance to trash them like you constantly see at the DUmp.

I love how the magnanimous nutcase concedes that her knowledge flies way over the heads of her hopelessly civilian audience.

Even though everything she says is invariably wrong.

She doesn't want them to feel bad about their ignorance, because she feels great about hers.

That's one of the nicest things about the crazy bald dwarf.

She can get away with that shit over there where NO one knows a damn thing about the military. Posers don't normally last on conservative sites.

Hey sabrina...if you're lurking...takes this little nugget back to General ands.

Obama's approval rating on his overall job performance as of a 2011 Military Time poll is at 25%

http://militarytimes.com/static/projects/pages/military-times-poll-2011


Outsidebeltway.com did a survey this year and found out that 32% of enlisted clarify themselves as Conservative....25% as Liberal and the rest as Moderate.


Oh and you gotta love this from your own archives at the DUmp:

Poll question: why does the military overwhelmingly vote republican?

Considering how hard the DemonRats try and disenfranchise the military when it comes to voting, I'd say those numbers are close.

One of the reasons Desert One became such a cluster**** was because each service had an O6 on the ground.  It led to establishing SOCOM to prevent further such tits-ups messes in the future.  As overloaded as the choppers were, you'd think their O6 would be wise enough to stay behind and settle for ****ing with them over the commo link.
