OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Congressman Murtha dies
Condolences to his family and loved ones and to the US Congress for its loss...

Inga, you're missing the run of whitey tighty commercials on the Super Bowl.
and a Bud Light commercial that was amazingly reminiscent of the Teabagger people...logic lost.

Well, my corpsman laughed when I told him about it, and said "lots of people do that..." (including his mother at one point!) especially if you use phonics to read. Guess the President is lucky and hasn't needed his onstaff corpsmen yet..or probably as my son said he just calls them by the name on their uniform...
no, they aren't going to get excited about a wrong war with 4500 dead military, only on how their jobs are pronounced...give me a break. pitiful as usual!

That was PALIN in that conversation with Beck? I guess the TV was just on in the background, wasn't paying much attention. wow.
Those folks around Perry are dirty mouthed, they make our sailors look shy...

I don't go read the rw twit nonsense, Inga...too much good stuff to read here, or elsewhere...
Palin...hypocrite has stuck her foot in her mouth yet one more time. Dumb sh^&.
-
-
what are you talking about? did he mispronounce corpsman when he was speaking about that young man today? I mispronounced it up to when my son was in A School....big deal.
Inga, those type of people have to get their thrill where they can...I mean it's not like Republicans are anything like the statesmen they were in the past...they are a joke, even faux news laughs at them now! Led by Rush and those types of people...you know...those types...

well of course she is, she's a hypocrite...nothing surprising there...saddest thing is she's using that little child as a political pawn instead of showing a mother's love and fire...geez, even Olbermann was willing to give her a break on this, but I'm guessing that's over...

Steve, it's sad they don't even know the difference between a Wiccan (power of nature which they believe they can tap into through ceremonial stuff) and a Witch ( they believe they have individual magic through spells), which are two totally different religions.

A couple of years ago I was working a GOP political function...and heard one older man ask a younger one what military branch he was going into...the younger man replied that he was going to work "in the party" ...the older man, a GOP guy, said to the younger man "in my day we served our country first."

They might feel like it was a mistake, but the American people saw who was up there to discuss issues, to discuss what was best for the American people, who wants to cross party lines to get the job done...and who does not. The American people saw those that put a political party BEFORE the good of the USA . Any one serving in Congress, just like our young people in the military, should put the USA ahead of party, and after the Bush/Rove dynasty, those people cannot do it. And the American people lose. I hope the President does it again and again! Stood up there, no notes, all those figures on the top of his head, no telepromter like the slanders like to rave on about and kicked ass when it came to proving that he is working hard to take care of the American people...and guess who looked the fools!! 140-1...and the "1" made them all look relatively stupid and very self centered. HA!!!
