“Obamarama: Women in Combat! (Unnatural and Dangerous)
by Geoffrey G. Fisher
January 15, 2014
‘Former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta (in January of 2013) lifted the 1994 Combat Exclusion Rule that restricted women from serving in frontline infantry, armor and special operations units and set a January 2016 compliance deadline (A horrendously terrible idea that endangers both men and WOMEN in combat!—my addition).’ You want to do what? How did you reach the conclusion that women are physiologically ready for frontline hand to hand combat (They are not! GOD did not design women to be warriors! All the attempts to lie about it not withstanding!—my addition)?
May I suggest taking a look at the field of sports and strength training for a quick review of the differences between men and women?
Despite all the progress women have in the fields of sports and strength training, it is political correctness run amuck to suggest that women are qualified to be combat warriors. The feminists and the political left need to be checked before service members are killed because of the left’s stupidity (They should be put in the front lines of battle for a month before any decision is finalized! By themselves without backup!—my addition). Let the facts speak for themselves on this topic.
According to Paul Vanderburgh, a professor of exercise physiology at the University of Dayton, ‘(B)ecause women have lower levels of testosterone, they typically develop less muscle than men, Vanderburgh explained. In addition, they can’t lose as much fat. Men can conceivably get to 4 percent body fat; women typically bottom out at more than 10 percent.
The New York Times reported that 14-year-old boys can earn the highest award on the government’s (Obama’s) physical fitness test by doing 10 pull-ups or chin-ups: for 14-year-old girls, it’s 2. Despite this empirical evidence and tomes of studies stating the obvious, the president continues on remaking America into something that is unrecognizable and preposterous (And more importantly, DANGEROUS for both men and women on the front lines of battle!—my addition) .
All this talk of women taking to the battle field caused me to revisit an article I wrote three years ago about the differences between male and female athletes after the women’s basketball coach at The University of Connecticut (my alma mater) had a fur-ball over a perceived slight in the media towards his team.
AURIEMMA’S TEMPER TANTRUM REVEALS THE ACHILLES’ HEEL OF WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
GEOFFREY GRISWOLD FISHER
January 2011
Congratulations to the University of Connecticut Women’s basketball team for their remarkable accomplishment of 90 consecutive wins, breaking the old record of 88 by the 1971-1974 UCLA Men’s Basketball team.
If you simply wanted to enjoy UConn’s moment in the sun there was a problem that developed almost immediately. Supporters of Title IX and myopic women’s basketball aficionados cried foul—they cited the tepid interest in UConn’s chase for the greatest number of consecutive basketball games as evidence of sexism and intolerance in the media.
The lead critic of the nation’s luke-warm interest in women’s basketball was not Rachel Maddow or Gloria Steinem but rather UConn Women’s head coach Luigi (Geno) Auriemma, himself. An Italian immigrant with a blue collar work ethic, Auriemma became a naturalized United States citizen in 1994 after 33 years living in America. His story is that of a true Horatio Alger—and this makes his recent comments all that more disappointing and confusing to this alumnus.
The coach in his own words:
Because we’re breaking a men’s record, we’ve got a lot of people paying attention, Auriemma said. If we were breaking a women’s record, everybody would go, ‘Aren’t those girls nice, let’s give them two paragraphs in USA Today, you know, give them one line on the bottom of ESPN and then let’s send them back where they belong, in the kitchen.
Really coach, the kitchen?
This type of pandering is better associated with the perennial whining of Maureen Dowd of the New York Times. Auriemma should know better. His rhetoric was lazy and silly.
The reason the media and the public in general paid less attention to the 90 game winning streak was because women’s basketball is not played at the same caliber as men’s basketball. Here are the facts.
Stamina
Women’s basketball is played by women. Women are slower and weaker. Just look at the world records for any sport. In the 100 meter dash—the current men’s world record is 9.58 seconds. The current women’s world record is 10.49 seconds. The difference is .91 seconds. The female holder (Mrs. Griffith-Joyner) would have come in last place running at the men’s heat at the 2009 event.
In the marathon category the same pattern is found. The world record time for men is 2 hours 3 minutes and 59 seconds, set in 2008. The world record for women in 2003 is 2 hours 15 minutes and 25 seconds. The difference is a staggering 11 minutes and 26 seconds. Even in pro tennis the women only play 2 out of 3 matches rather than the men’s 3 out of 5 matches.
Vertical Leap
According to JumpsHigher.com, the average vertical leap of a woman between the ages of 21 and 25 is 14.1 inches, while the average vertical leap of a man in the same age range is 22.1 inches … Men leap higher for rebounds and shots than women do, and thus the slam dunk is an iconic part of the game of men’s basketball, whereas in women’s basketball it is nearly nonexistent (The University of Arizona men’s basketball team had a point guard listed at 5’ 10.” He was at least an inch shorter than that. I walked by him one day after jogging on campus and he was at least an inch shorter than me and I’m 5’ 10.” He could dunk in game situations which is more difficult than practice. He is not alone. I’ve never heard of a women under 6’ who has ever come close to dunking a basketball!—my addition).
Indeed, according to By Brian Palmer of Slate Magazine, ‘Baylor’s Brittney Griner became (only) the second women ever to dunk a basketball in an NCAA tournament game Tuesday in a win over Florida (in 2010)…The average WNBA player, at just under 6 feet, is about 7 inches shorter than her male counterpart.
Coach Auriemma knows these facts. Any team that can leap 8 inches higher is going to dominate the game. UConn’s own Kara Wolters at 6’7” did not dunk the ball once during her collegiate career. Women are built differently than men—their low center of gravity is suited for stability and pregnancy rather than leaping (GOD made women for select purposes! GOD made men for select purposes! They are NOT interchangeable!—my addition). Although this observation may sound like a headline from Neanderthal Times, ‘Ladies of Connecticut Public Television you just need to acknowledge the facts.’
The Basketball Itself
The women’s basketball is smaller, lighter, and has a greater bounce. That means that every shot by a female player is cheaper. The Men’s basketball on average is a full inch bigger in circumference and on average .3 inches bigger in diameter. Every shot by Maya Moore has an extra cushion of .15 inches on all sides of the rim. In addition, the women’s three point line is a full one foot closer to the hoop. Coach Auriemma, that means that every shot is easier to make and less challenging that the shots required of the men’s teams.
There is no 10 second rule for women to move the ball to the half court line.
The Big Story should be how far women have come since they started playing basketball in bloomers. The current configuration of five women players playing over a full court was only inaugurated in 1971.
Speaking about the Huskies, Bill Walton, the all-American center on those U.C.L.A. teams of the early 1970s, told The Associated Press: ‘They (UConn women) play with a great sense of team, great purpose, phenomenal execution of fundamentals, relentless attack. It is what every team should aspire to, regardless of the sport.’ This is the true greatness of UConn Women’s Basketball.
Thomas Walker posts in his blog Sports: ‘Routinely, UConn schedules the toughest women’s teams in the country …The Huskies practice against male players, sometimes five women against six men. Come game time, UConn is unfailingly prepared.’
I find the UConn women stellar in their pursuit of perfection on the court and exemplary in their wholesome public persona. They serve as excellent role models for little girls both on and off the court—an ethos we can all admire.
Congratulations to the Lady Huskies and may Luigi (Geno) Auriemma do what he does best: coach—pandering is beneath you.”
After moving back to Morton, Illinois from Tucson, I watched our high school girls’ basketball team. During that time they finished fourth in the State in 2A when 2A was the large school division. After the two divisions were split into four, last year they finished fourth in the State in 3A. I coached one year of fresh-soph high school basketball in a school of 200 students. Two sophomores were starters on the varsity which lost in the sectional to the team that finished third in the State when Illinois had only one division. They never played for me. My team finished 16-6. My starting five were better at every position than any of the girls’ teams that I saw in Morton including the teams that finished fourth in the State. My bench was better than any of Morton’s teams’ bench and my bench was deeper.
Women can not compete with men on the basketball court. Women also can not compete with men on the battle field. In basketball no lives are in danger because of that lack of competitiveness. On the battle field, the lives of both our men and WOMEN are in danger! Keep women from the battle field for the sake of everyone!

This is my two part suggestion to Tea Party groups, social conservatives, Constitutionalists, and anyone else who wants to save our Republic from the approaching destruction.
1) Run as many conservative candidates in as many Republican primaries as possible.
2) Then, run as many independent and/or third party candidates as possible in as many races as possible where we did not win the primary.
That is why I am working to get the Constitution Party on the ballot in Texas. If we get on the ballot, we will have two Congressional House candidates running and two State candidates running. Getting on the ballot is the first step. Winning elections is the second. Winning elections will grow the Party. The Constitution Party is much more in line with the Tea Party movement than is the Republican Party. And I have been involved with all three!

If elected to Congress, I will not, under any circumstances, vote for present Speaker of the House John Boehner to be Speaker of the House. I call on every Republican primary candidate running in Texas Congressional District 19 to publicly (in writing) make the same pledge. It would not be a bad idea for every Republican candidate running for the House of Representatives to give the same pledge. See my post at http://christiangunslinger3.blogspot.com on December 16, 2013 entitled “Speaker of the House John Boehner Attacks the Tea Party Again for Being Fiscally Responsible!”

If I am elected to the House, I will use the Constitution, as written, to do everything in my power to stop judicial tyranny! Will the other candidates pledge the same? I know our present Representative has NOT done everything possible to stop judicial tyranny! Why is that?

Competition is good for the economy and competition is good for the Republican Party!!! Competition keeps Congressmen committed to we the people!!! Primary Republicans who do not support the Constitution as written.
