By your reasoning, they should have defied the lawful subpoena and refused to testify. Sorry, but the law applies to them the same as anyone else. AA> If they had any integrity, they should have AA> resigned a long time ago. But the jobs are probably very cushy and the AA> money is probably very good. The job is not cushy, and the pay for LTC Vindman is the same whether he is serving his country on the National Security Counsel or in Iraq or at the War College.

AA> We'll never know the "full" story. We only get the version that the AA> media wants to feed the public. What other story would you want to spin? DS>Not only that he resorts to making up derogatory names for anyone DS>who has the backbone to not agree with him. AA> They are *all* grade school. ;) Off camera, they probably all resort AA> to name-calling. Mr T *does* seem to lack suave. But he is not a AA> politician. He does *not* have the typical social/diplomatic grooming AA> of a politician. What you should have said is that he does not have the typical human decency that most Americans have. In his mind, anyone who dares to disagree with him is scum of the earth, and in fact he denies ever really knowing them as he trashes them vindictively for their betrayal. It is not betrayal to tell the truth, especially under oath. Dale Shipp fido_261_1466 (at) verizon (dot) net (1:261/1466) ....
