"When was the last time we lost three fighter jets in one day to friendly fire?

Unless it turns out Kuwaiti AA batteries were manned by Iranian agents, this is a huge screw-up.

“Someone forgot to turn their transponder back on” might work as an excuse for one plane. But three? Simultaneously?

This is the kind of thing that happens when war planners have no idea what they are doing." - Pastor Bill

I remember back in the TMF days, Dumbass Dope blamed Jimmy Carter for the helicopters that crashed in the desert during the attempted rescue of the hostages.

That is the thing about Dumbass Dope, he is consistent in his views, just not how a normal person is. He is consistent in that if it happens under a Republican it is ok, if it happens under a Democrat it is the end of the world.

Do deficits matter? Depends upon the party of the president.

Is it good or bad if a president bombs a foreign country? Depends upon the party of the President.

It would be hilarious to go back and read Dumbass Dope's criticisms of Obama's bombing campaign in Libya and compare it to his views on Trump's current bombing campaign in Iran, but alas the TMF posts no longer exist.
