Revoke My Clearance Too

Please continue to Damn Admiral McRaven as GOPutins do.
Stating facts is damning someone now.
The fact that you think show shows just how unhinged Hillary losing tgr election has made you
 
Because someone who speaks out against the PoS couldn't possibly have experience and expertise that might be valuable in future military operations. Nope the PoS knows everything, so no need for ****ing former admirals that directed the capture of bin Ladin. You really don't get the point.

your babbling, I said none of those things. He asked to have his status downgraded. I'm suggesting they do as he asks. Give him what he wants. After all he is the guy that got bin Laden. He has earned having his simple request honored.

To get to the Theory of Eights with Progressive Conservatism, we’ll need Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Lincoln and FDR to go with TR and IKE.

Teddy Roosevelt. Eisenhower.
 
Unfortunately for the Divided States of America, I completely overestimated the Patriotism of GOP Senators.

McConnell now supports Russian intrusions into the campaigns of Democratic Senators, Representatives, Governors and State Legislatures. Your ILK now defends and supports that.
Yeah I got the message a long time ago. You do not respect people who disagree you. You despise diversity of thought. No need to continually remind everyone of that.

I just heard that people to maintain their top secret clearance it is reviewed every 5 years and part of the requirement is that these people conduct themselves as if they were currently employed in our intel agencies. Anyone heard this? If this is true, then Brennan is just the first. Comey, Clapper, Hayden for sure to follow.
Ohr is on the list too. I find that one the most perplexing considering he is currently employed at the DOJ. The other ones are mostly symbolic gestures.

OK, nice dodge, my post was about anti-fa carrying Soviet flags, you denied it, I proved it...……...

I didn't deny it. I asked you to document it. Which you did after some more prompting. Thank you.

I'm sure all requests for downgrade are honored. Why wouldn't they be? Even "no questions asked", it's obviously the right move.

Now we need to convince him that his duty extends beyond time in service and he is obligated to provide advice when requested for the rest of his life.
 
So, you've moved on from the threes thing?

I’ve actually seen and heard, especially from others, 5s, 8s, 11s, 13s, and 16s. We’re getting an Octagon for a Gazebo.

I was thinking 19s and 21s when my Geometry Wife brought up the Fibonacci Sequence. Whoa!!!
 
No one carries a soviet flag anymore. Don't be misled. The Soviet Union disolved 30 years ago.

Yet Putin is rebuilding the Soviet Union, with you know whose help.

And Xi is rebuilding Red China. It makes the most sense to me that Israel and India have formed such a Strong Alliance, with the third, Saudi Arabia, as a ‘silent’ partner.
 
No delusion on my part. President Trump shouldn't be president. But then neither should any of the other evil POS that were running should be.

He was the lesser of the evils.

If you actually believe any of the other running would have been good for our nation, you are highly deluded.

He won the election. At least give the man a chance, and use honest criticism. Not media and pundit generated lies.

If you think he was the lesser of the evils, you were had. Pure and simple.

The last time I was in Seattle, I was drinking in that bar across the street (Virginia) from the Moore theater. The bar maid had a graph of the Fibonacci sequence on her forearm. I made a comment about it and all of a sudden we were upstairs in her apartment.

I love math.

I see the Military Parade for his Sickness has been delayed until 2019, with big cost overruns already.
 
I've already said that IMO people who have left government service no longer need government security clearances, and they should be revoked. If the Admiral is recalled to active duty, his clearance can be restored.

The idea behind why certain folks keep their clearance after they've left the office that merited that clearance in the first place is a fairly sound one, at least as I understand it. It goes that former officials in CIA, FBI, NSA, NI, SD, etc. may need to be consulted by those currently in office, and during some periods, they may need to be consulted frequently. So, we can either refuse to let them retire from a job they no longer want to do full time (good luck with that), give up the advantages that kind of consulting can obviously give us, or allow them to keep their clearances.

In actual practice, it seems to get rather more nebulous. Once people figured out that companies will pay for advice from people who are privy to secret information gathered by our intelligence agencies, it became the norm for former officials to use the fact that they have clearance to make a fortune after they "retire" from public service...which usually happens after just a few years in whatever office they've held.

Very Good Points, though we still have an Enemies List 2.0 to Witness. #45 will not end well
 
It's funny to watch all you guys suffering from TDS.

I do not think this display of raw emotion is that funny. Its a little scary how easily those with so little knowledge of history combined with a good bit of indoctrination can be maneuvered.

One basic truth can send them spiraling into rushing to support lawlessness, arsonists, cop killers, murderers, rapists, robbers, avowed communists, known perjurists, corrupt people that presided over some of the greatest intelligence failures in the history of our country, racists, federally charged leakers, corrupt investigators, lying media(conflating this with ALL media of course), rogue dictators (KJI), and on and on. The democrat party has not been to rabidly unhinged angry since republicans took their four million slaves away in 1860. This of course led to the civil war.

And now Veterans Sue Over Reported Troika of VA ‘Shadow Rulers’ from Mar-a-Lago.

‘Today’s’ Veterans are slow to learn on #45, as with my Beloved Farmers-in-Law.

It's okay. Obviously you don't understand the issue here. It's late. Get some sleep.
