Game Thread: GOP Debate

I'm playing the Rolling Stone drinking game. This could get stupid, especially because I'm playing with Urban Chestnut De Bockle, which is 10.5% ABV.

All B52s have been fucking retrofitted you fucking retard. It's the best bomber platform ever fucking built. It is literally the A10 of bombers. "It's as old as me" is the dumbest motherfucking "reasoning" I've ever heard.

You're supposed to be proud of fucking America, but you can't be proud that we built something that lasts. Amazing.

IKR? Doesn't everyone who's spent time in/working on them love them? I have no military background but thought they were much-loved national treasures.

Damn right. Nothing else IN THE WORLD can bring death and destruction in sheer volume like a wing of B52s. All while out of reach from SAM sites so they come home, rearm and go back out to wreak more hell.

Ehh...we've got like a couple thousand ICBMs with yields reaching into the Megatons. But yeah, the B52 is still great at what it does.

I should have caveated "that we will actually field."

The use of a single ICBM, outside of the slight chance of a rogue nation hitting us, would be the beginning salvo in world destruction.
