I copied the excerpts below from a news article about the Chinook Crash a short while back. It got me very agitated.
I always get agitated at Talking Heads and Pundits when they try to sound like experts while having no expertise except their mouths and/or their word processors.
The “Allen” in the quote below is an U.S. Army General...
“Allen defended the decision to send in the Chinook loaded with special operations forces to pursue insurgents escaping from the weekend firefight with Army Rangers in a dangerous region of Wardak province of eastern Afghanistan.”
- Are they upset because they were going after the bad guys? That's what our fighting forces do. That's why they are called "fighting forces".
- Are they upset because our fighting forces were sent into "a dangerous region"? They are trained to go into dangerous regions.
“Questions remain about why the troops were called in to aid other U.S. combatants engaged in a firefight”…
- Huh?
- Can they really be questioning why they were sent in to aid their fellow combatants?
Al Capp of Li’l Abner Fame used to say he was,
“An Expert on Nothing with an Opinion on Everything.”
Al Capp was a humorist. These Talking Heads are not supposed to be funny. They are also better than Al Capp ever was at being Experts on Nothing with Opinions on Everything.
Would I kid u?
More Foolishness…
Al Capp also was the creator of the mascot symbol for the high school I went to in New Orleans … The Fighting Blue Jay 
I bet you can hardly contain your emotions after gazing upon this little bird.
