https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Gant

quote:

In June 2010,[6] Gant began a second Afghanistan deployment, returning to the village of Mangwal where he had served in 2003.[1] In September 2010, reporter Ann Scott Tyson took a leave of absence from The Washington Post and went to Kunar to live with Gant for nine months, in violation of military regulations.[6]

Gant and his unit built relationships with the tribes by wearing traditional Afghan clothing instead of uniforms and learning Pashto.[1] He remained in Kunar for 22 months and achieved significant operational success. General Petraueus called him "the perfect counterinsurgent" and compared him favorably to T. E. Lawrence, calling him "Lawrence of Afghanistan."[7] By the middle of 2011, he had recruited 1,300 Afghan Local Police.[6] At the same time, he engaged in unorthodox behavior such as ritually cutting himself and telling his soldiers that, "I believe in the wrathful God of combat. I believe in Hecate".[8] He allegedly drank alcohol during the deployment, which is prohibited by Army regulations, and "self-medicated" with pain medication.[1]

The fact that Romney(s campaign) was so deep in FOXworld that they got blindsided by basic, well documented reality at an incredibly important debate was a really bad sign for the future lol.

Speaking of, i often think of this Onion News Network video from the day after the 2012 election. It might be the most prescient thing they've ever done. Watch for the chyron about Hillary at the end, its incredible.

oh, oh no, I forgot about that

quote:

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott acknowledged yesterday that he made a mistake when he smiled and winked in a talk radio studio while listening to an elderly woman pensioner say she had been forced to become a phone-sex worker because of her financial difficulties.

:wink:

I just remembered that time he knighted prince Phillip for, I'm pretty sure, no particular reason other than "he sometimes does stuff for australia". people got really mad, and he called posting tweets "electronic graffiti" which I think is kinda dope

(and can't post for 10 years!)

the time the FCC made time for public comments regarding the suspension of Net Neutrality, and when the overwhelmingly negative comments started coming in "the comments system crashed" and it suddenly became imperative to end Net Neutrality before the comments system could be "fixed," no doubt due FCC chairman Ajit Pai's dissembling machinations

then the whole gambit blew up in the cable companies' faces because the FCC's claim that Net Neutrality was no longer in the federal gov't's purview it opened up the states to individually implement their own Net Neutrality laws

then Pai claimed the FCC had the power to override those state laws and the courts were all "lol nope you idiots voluntarily gave up that right, reap the loving whirlwind"

now there's a federal investigation into the FCC's manipulation of the comments system
