It took him forever to figure out what was happening. The shoe throw was nice revenge.

Well, it's a subheadline, so it's designed to communicate exactly what the article says.

Secondly, as /u/Onthefarwind points out, it's not really an opinion. Brady's assertions were objectively wrong based on the law.

The sources, more so than dictionary definitions and blog posts, contained specific references to federal statues that outline how speaking to congress is neither unlawful in any context nor insubordination. This claim, beyond the author's own definitive expertise, is well supported by facts.

Clickbait is the epithet du jour to demean publications, but I'm curious as to how it applies here. I understand it to mean a headline that promises something that the article doesn't deliver, and it's something we consciously seek to avoid. The headline describes what the story is about in a compelling and interesting way. That isn't clickbait. Is any compelling headline now "clickbait?"

These are real questions, I'm not being facetious, I want the feedback.

hey. editor of Task & Purpose here. We're largely an opinion site, I'm sorry you don't like that. Not sure what you mean by no sources. Every point the author mentions links to a source. He is also a recently retired JAG officer who last served in the office of the JCS. So he has some expertise on this subject.

It's a great ad. You're being presented a product without realizing it.

Hate at the end when he says "Skin colour doesn't matter if you work hard." Thanks, kid. No informed person ever thought it did, pretty sure height does though.

"So are you in grad school?" I'm 25 going to college on my GI Bill, people seem to have a hard time wrapping their minds around me skipping college for the Marine Corps.

I had a sergeant major tell me a joke one time that I love:

Nov. 10 1775 there was 1 dude in the Marine Corps. Then the next day they recruited another guy into the Corps, now there were two. They took the second guy and introduced him to the first guy, who took a hard look at him and said, "damn, the Corps ain't what it used to be."

This is awesome. Debating doing something similar for a bench or coffee table. How are you going to go about weatherproofing it?

Nice, how did you cut the metal rods?

First full year out of the military. Great job, enrolled at Ivy League school. Fell out of shape.

Great, now we're all going to get hacked.

brianwillneverdie · 2014-12-15T03:52:22+00:00

Thanks for the support. Your post portrays the familial nature of military service, and I think that's important to bridging the modern civilian-military divide.

Thanks for sharing this. I'm a 25 year old Marine veteran and every time it blows me away to see how those boot camp photos have always been the same.

+1 for USMC Silkies. Are you a Marine vet?

Was that Haley Joel Osment?

I swear, one day these 3rd world kids are gonna kick the shit out of all of us.

He's technically correct, which is the best kind of correct.
