Pretty sure this guy is still against Harry marriage
RicketyRicketyRektSon
So rare in fact that a man who exhibits it is called Mad Dog
sarcasticpanda
While a perfectly acceptable mentality to have toward the issue, it didn't answer the Senator's question...
MoccaFruit
Something something Trump in Russia.
ChucklePuss
Maybe having this man be a part of this administration will help change the minds of some of those crazy gay-haters that voted Trump.
MidLifeChrysler
Be gay all you want, but for the love of Chesty, don't let him catch your pogue ass with your hands in your pockets.

Rooprecht
Former soldier here and I'm not gay. But I think a couple of the blokes I fucked might have been.
Ionlyspeakinpuns
In General, Matt-is his own person. No reason to get mad,dog.

I find it funny how the only guy Trump appointed that doesn't concern me is named Mad Dog.
stsword
Yes, he's the only appointment so far who doesn't need to see the wizard about getting a heart, a brain, or courage
GenerousPeacock
*cents
jaysonsunshine
I don't believe he likes being called Mad Dog. He has encouraged people to not even call him "general" at the Hoover Institution.
apercent
You just reposted the same quote in a different picture
beakmansworld
I didn't see the other one.
FrodoShrugged
Careful America, you have people coming into office that don't give a shit about namby-pamby PC bullshit....
Bladeroller
If life were a military sci-fi about a hostile alien invasion,he's definitely the General who becomes a father figure to the main,then dies.
LosPer
Call him the Warrior Monk, not Mad Dog. He doesn't like that Moniker.
zPapa
How long until this quote isn't reposted with a different image
BattloidKouji
I really like him as a person, but I think civilian control of the military is just too important to give up, Imho.
joshff
Ok. This is the third variation of what he said. What did he actually say?
beakmansworld
I direct quoted from watching panel
76Tromboners
All of a sudden imgur loves Mattis. Confirmation hearings are tame at best. Wait and im sure imgurians will have something to bitch about.
spookyu
The military has always loved Mattis, he's been our voice of reasonable badassery for a while. There's plenty of enlisted/vets on imgur now.
Mcmonkeybug
I don't care how many push ups you can do; go wait in that fox hole until we need you to kill something - Bill Hicks. I miss him.
bumbl3b33
I don't advocate for or want war, but I do advocate for this man being in charge of any war efforts.
FrigOffBoBandy

dragonfliesfantasize
Yeah guy still seems a little too eager for war. Can't ignore the stuff that happened under his command in Iraq
Drosophilamelanobastard
Is he Implying that gays are somehow less lethal? Honest question, not shit stirring, I want to understand the context he said this in.
Breaker404
He also made a similar comment about women on the battle field he said standards are standards if they are me who cares
wvsmc2003
I believe he is saying he doesn't care about their sexual orientation, just if they are efficient soldiers.
Drosophilamelanobastard
That's what I thought.

Pattosaurus20xx
You guys ever feel like he's gonna be our Rommel?
WombatOne
I hope not. Rommel massacred entire villages in Slovenia and Croatia because some people from those villages joined the partisans
Frugtkagen
Rommel is extremely overrated - he was a good tactician, but an utterly terrible strategist. Also, he was a diehard Nazi till the war 1)
Frugtkagen
started going badly for the Germans. He wasn't a part of the 20 July plot, only suspected of it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rommel_myth
drdavessardogs
Our Patton re-born

qeuriopqreipoqeruipo
Are you kids not done with the "literally hitler" crap?
JohnnyTitelips
Rommel was not like the others. He treated P.O.W.s with dignity, didn't hunt down Jews and whatnot, was part of a plot to kill Hitler (1/2)
skelitor120
That's what Pattosaurus20xx was getting at-- Mattis will be our respected, valued military leader while Trump will be our Hitler
Chagum
Read up on Guderian.
TacoMonsterTuesdaySeeYouThenNext
fact
BloodiDodi
Which is why they kept him in Africa and France away from camps and atrocities. He was also related to Polish general Juliusz Rómmel
JohnnyTitelips
(for which he was forced to commit suicide), and was respected and admired by his allies and enemies alike.
ThePortugeeseInquisition
let's hope the suicide part doesn't happen to him.
veritas1980
Rommel was a man of honor and tactical genius.
Anyswingingdick
Not sure why you're being down voted. Neither of those statements are wrong.
veritas1980
because he was a patriot who followed the legitimate orders of his government which just happened to be headed by Hitler.
TicklishYeti
As a matter of fact he's celebrated in Germany
veritas1980
because he was a patriot who followed the legitimate orders of his government which just happened to be headed by Hitler. thats why downv's
TicklishYeti
I don't know why that got down voted. It's true. He's the only German general from ww2 that Germany will still acknowledge.
veritas1980
because he was a patriot who followed the legitimate orders of his government which just happened to be headed by Hitler.
Chagum
Nope. Guderian was highly regarded and oversaw the creation of W German defense forces. von Manstein is also well respected.
TicklishYeti
Didn't know that. I know Germany tries to forget that past. Didn't know Guderian was still regarded there as well.
JohnnyTitelips
Fucking Imgur downvoting you for being right.
veritas1980
because he was a patriot who followed the legitimate orders of his government which just happened to be headed by Hitler.
UrKungFuNoGood
The dems are trying to block his appointment. I've voted dem all my life. I just can't claim to be one anymore after the last few years.
shooter45
Good for you.
StoChastic84
Same here. I'm done with their BS. Blame the Russian hackers instead of what the hackers uncovered? Ridiculous. (Still despise Trump though)
CitizenDickbag
What are you talking about? That's a bald-faced lie, there was no Democratic attempt to block him you nit.
DavidBrooker
Among the Democrats to vote for his waiver was Hillary's running mate. Hes basically the least controversial appointment possible.
Sumpte
He's the least controversial appointment out of Trump's selection. There are perfectly valid concerns about mixing military and politics.
DavidBrooker
Absolutely there are. But given Trump's unpredictability, even Democrats are anxious to get someone established into a major post.
spookyu
WHY?! He's the most best pick thus far....cutting off the nose to spite the face I guess.
heynongman4pres
The last few years of what? Economic growth and no wars in the Middle East? Get ready for tax cuts for the rich & a war w/ Iran moron.
Humblecandy
So abandon them and let the crazies take over? That's just as bad. Go to caucuses, talk to them, make them better.
UrKungFuNoGood
I just mean I'm not comfortable calling myself a democrat anymore. I'm not abandoning and I'm quite active with correspondence.
apercent
If being a single guy not being homophobic is all it takes for you to switch parties, You should hate the Republicans
UrKungFuNoGood
i'll vote dem the rest of my life too. I just won't call myself one anymore
UrKungFuNoGood
did you just assume my political affiliation?
PhuckKnuckles
I'm pretty sure them telling you how you should feel was a micro aggression, brah. Are you ok?
UrKungFuNoGood
I just made a pot of mac and cheese from scratch. what were we talking about again?
apercent
Macorini and cheese. Tell us more about this "from scratch"
FarmerBecktold
He's a Warhawk. That's why a lot of Democrats don't like him.
isayfuckoff
As opposed to everyone else in government? Dems haven't been a peace party in decades
Sumpte
No, it's not. Stop making shit up.
RexGraecorum
But Democrats love Hillary right? She literally wanted to escalate to war with Russia by enforcing a no fly zone in Syria.
apercent
I think it's more so conservative policies
FarmerBecktold
Democrats obviously didn't love Hillary enough..
SomeCrazyNerd
Well she was considered not left enough by some and unlikeable to many so yeah...
spookyu
He's the furthest thing from a warmonger, if you've ever heard him speak you would understand that. Capable at war =/= warhawk.
FarmerBecktold
The dude wanted to go to war with Iran.
spookyu
The dude, as a general, wanted to do his job. As potential secdef he has stated he wants to "restrain" Iran without hostilities.
feeltheice
Read up on his removal from cent com. He literally made the civilians answer 2nd and 3rd order of effect
spookyu
Got fired basically because he was too real about the consequences of action.
