DUmmy DUmoTex, one of the DUmp's most notorious phony soldiers, and inventor of the 5.56mm shoulder fired incendiary anti-tank rocket, manages to make the Arizona tragedy into political issue.
Of all the despicable DUmmies, he is among the most worthy of contempt, in an elite category with Deadstone and TomInTib.

Today: worse than the worst of Vietnam for me (Granite Mountain Hotshots)
Today has been like Vietnam, only worse. I remember the gut wrenching days after we lost air crews and/or friends. I remember the plaintive, begging MAYDAY calls. I remember watching helicopters go down, and 'chutes from battle-damaged RF-4Cs. I remember the 37mm and 57mm on the Ho Chi Minh Trail, at night.
All bad memories, but nothing like today. The news says the worst loss of firefighters since 9/11. True in raw numbers, and if you compare apples and oranges. The 19 killed in Arizona were primarily wildland firefighters, and off the top of my head it is the worst loss of wildland firefighters in my memory.
Steel up, people, for more bad fires. Look at what is happening with climate change. The time will come, and soon, that all the brave Hotshot crews in the world cannot help. I am a forward observer on the very front line of this war, and it is getting ugly.
Meanwhile, Peace be with the families of these brave firefighters. I, for one, will dedicate my efforts for the rest of this fire season to the Granite Mountain Hotshots, and all other firefighting crews.
RIP. And never let this happen again.

It is comforting to know that no matter how tragic the event may be, it's still all about nadin, and only about nadin:
