hefe, got your wish. The helicopter pilot was a woman. - TigerMatt KC - 1/31 07:09:20
     She was hot after getting blown up, was she hot before?(nm) - Eggs MU - 1/31 07:59:47
          Well, she was a female pilot. So probably not. - AllThingsKC KC - 1/31 08:42:12
          This is the question (nm) - mizzouSECedes STL - 1/31 08:25:56
     Sometimes the jokes just write themselves (nm) - hefeweizen MU - 1/31 07:45:03
          Pete Hegseth right now - Bosalphus KC - 1/31 07:49:03
               yep, it completely validates his point (nm) - zounami MU - 1/31 07:49:51
     not a surprise... when standards are lowered to check boxes - zounami MU - 1/31 07:37:30
          That's quite the leap - Wildcat KSU - 1/31 08:49:22
               your interpretation of what I wrote is certainly a leap (nm) - zounami MU - 1/31 08:54:00
                    I applied your broad statement to the specific topic alluded - Wildcat KSU - 1/31 09:05:44
                         Careful, you going to be labeled a demlib if you keep - kmawv8 MU - 1/31 09:11:19
                    Do you have proof that this is an example of standards - kmawv8 MU - 1/31 08:56:58

                                                  RE: wrong... I explained why she's most likely a Biden era - meatiger MU - 1/31 10:08:27
                                                       she was recruited under DEI policies & standards, and now - zounami MU - 1/31 10:09:54

                              Do you have proof that this female pilot went through - kmawv8 MU - 1/31 09:04:03
                                   highlander made an excellent point about this... - zounami MU - 1/31 09:05:30

                                                  You're only proving my point - Wildcat KSU - 1/31 09:16:49

                                                                                Have I ever said I agree with it? - meatiger MU - 1/31 09:58:40
                                                                                     you defend and rationalize it... not a good look (nm) - zounami MU - 1/31 10:04:49
                                                                                          I have not defended it - meatiger MU - 1/31 10:07:00
                                        You can just say no. It was a pretty direct question. (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 1/31 09:06:51
