So the Pentagon is DELAYING recruitment figures because they're too low?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

That's the Repuke solution to Idiot Son's ruination of the US military? Delaying releasing figures?

:rofl:

1. No, the release of the figures has been delayed

so that recruitment requirement figures can be adjusted down so that the recruitment numbers fall in line.

That's been the history of this administration on any delaying tactic for the release of figures.

5. They'll "cook the books". They'll include transfers from Air Force and

the Navy or something.

2. YOU DON'T GET IT

The reason they are delaying is that figures are SO HUGELY FANTABULOUS that they are having problems getting them all processed due to the GARGANTUAN INFLUX of young people wanting to go get blown up over Dim Son's lies. SO THERE!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU PROBABLY HATE 'MURRIKKA, FAUX NEWS AND RUSH, YA PINKO!!!!!!!!!!
:silly: :crazy:

3. It means the army's May figures are below its April figures

of 42% off the mark.

No worries, says the Pentagon. We'll make up the difference of five months of missed quotas in June, July, and August, when the high schools graduate their next crop of cannon fodder.

Meanwhile, the Iraqi partisan plan is clear: make sure one suicide bombing after the next hits the world's papers and scares the sh*t out of every American 18 year old about to receive a diploma.

4. Sure, until they Enron them enough

One thing we all know is that no number that comes out of this bunch is ever right. They're lying about the number of war dead, the true cost of tax cuts to the rich, how much they've stolen out of Iraq, the true number of people who are out of work, the true number of jobs that have disappeared overseas, the true inflation rate, and just about everything else.

They're LIARS, folks. Nothing they say can ever be trusted.
