Ok, now that we have officially went back to work (some of you LOL) after all the celebrating, and 2021 is over and done with, perhaps it is time for a look back provided by my good friend and fellow Marine Greg. What a year it was! Filled with so much BS from everyone it was almost unbearable. Even some of our Rhinos came out of the closet and showed their true leanings. And one popular Dem has sent the liberals into a spiral. Tis time for a respite away from the demise of America as we knew it and surely the loss of our Corps unless things change rapidly. Meanwhile enjoy Greg’s pickings.
