And then while ignoring the subject of this thread he'll post his typical straw men arguments.

He's too predictable. LOL.

Anyway, your slap had to sting.  Of course, Rich will reply that it takes more than you possess to sting him, and that we are both leftist morons etc. etc. etc.  Some things are more predictable than sunrise.

If that's all you have is a feeble attempt to assert that, what that shows is that it is just a way for you to be the regular dodger to avoid your regular cowardly 2-faced hypocrisy that is always present in your postings.

Are there any other pathetic leftist excuses you care to make, as a way to weasel out of your avoidance of the questions I posed to you, or do you have any other unsupportable bullshit you want to spew?   

Had you ever given 2 shits about the 13 military members that were killed because of the massive screw up by General Austin and Milley, you would have spoken out about it at the time, however that wasn't the case was it?

Tells me a great deal about you.  

No, instead of doing that, you were silent, which is a great indicator that your 1st allegiance is to your leftist Democrat politicians and the party over the US military.

That's a pretty pathetic indication of your true feelings about those who died back on that day in Afghanistan.  

IF the current CIC Donald Trump was in place when that happened, you would have been out in front with your protests and your admonition of the mission that resulted in such a disgrace and such a sad result of 13 brave military members losing their lives that day, all because of the political position that Joe Biden and the Dems were in, such that they were wrong as they could be in their withdrawal. 

However, he wasn't in charge, but your moronic leftist senile President Joe Biden was, and since that Is a Fact, you don't have the stones to criticize him, nor would you ever.  

I could ask you the same questions again as to why you didn't speak out about the unfortunate cutting and running by Joe Biden and his Sec. Def Lloyd Austin, but what would be the point?

You don't have the intellectual Balls to call out the military leadership under Joe Biden under the Democrats which resulted in the deaths of 13 American military soldiers as a direct result of the total incompetence OF those military leaders like Austin.  

And did you want give affirmation as to whether you want to arrest and charge that author of the Atlantic article, Jeffrey Goldberg, who exposed what you claimed was classified information, or is that too much for you to even discuss, because you don't have the intellectual character to be consistent?

I'll assume the latter.

I'm sure separate laws mandate how government employees can share sensitive classified details, and I highly doubt a commercial mobile application like Signal is part of the equation. Besides, if Signal was allowed for classified materials, why does the Trump administration insist that nothing classified was shared? Wouldn't it be a moot point?

I can also find lots of news articles that completely counter what Fox News is trying to push. Specifically, Signal is not an approved application for discussing material as sensitive and classified as Hegseth and the other people in the chat group were.

Thanks!  I hung around for an extra two months too, to ease the transition for my clients.  I implemented a three year plan basically making sure my clients had a relationship with my ultimate replacements.  The idea was to make my exit as smooth as possible, but the last few months were inevitably hectic.  I feel pretty good about my exit circumstances though, and I am sure you will too. 

My wife is in the same boat you are in right now.  She is retiring this year, no later than August (hopefully), but as early as May.  The plan is for her to hire her replacement and overlap with her replacement for a month.  No internal candidates are ready for this particular job yet.  They have whittled it down to two really good replacement candidates, who are deep in the interview process, but it takes forever, and there is no guarantee that either one will take the position.  Ms. B's company interviews very slowly and methodically.

Are you unable to offer up a rebuttal because every single word I stated about you, your true character, and your fraudulent leftist demeanor was 100 True?

Is that why you ignore your very hypocrisy about combat missions taken by the military, whereby you sat silent after 13 soldiers were killed in Afghanistan, sitting on your hands saying not a word, while a few days back an incredible combat mission transpired, killing 59 eneny and suddenly you came on her to excoriate the mission that resulted in not one injury to a military soldier, sailor, or marine troop?

Yep, I think that's pretty much it.  

In fact, I called you out as the fraud you are YEARS back when you came on to this thread, claiming you were actually a staunch conservative Republican, and that you always were at that time.

Why don't you left wing Democrats have the balls to just own up to your leftism?  You sure don't have any intellectual balls since you have decided to ignore any questions I asked which did expose your straight up hypocrisy about the military dependent upon the political affiliation of the officer wearing the Uniform.

Your stellar principles arise from this caveat: 

"If one is a military man/woman who is a Democrat and supports Democrats and their politics, then I agree with that military person and anything they do, and I will agree with what they do.

If one is a military person whose political affiliation is Republican then the reverse is true".  

Since you've never once in the history of your responses, criticized the left, and yet you have always criticized anything that any politician on the right has done. it is blatantly obvious after all these years, that you never were a conservative as you claimed and are now the same leftist Democrat you've always been. 

I won't bother asking you any further questions, since you aren't capable of answering anything with any logic, reasoning, and honesty.

PS: On the thread: "GOP lawmakers press for investigations of Trump Cabinet group chat"

"Republican senators are calling for the Trump administration and congressional committees to investigate the disclosure of sensitive national security information over Signal, a commercial app, fearing the controversy could have major political consequences."

"Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) said Tuesday that his committee will investigate the matter but also called on the Defense Department’s inspector general to launch a probe."

“We’ll certainly be asking the IG to look into it,” Wicker told The Hill of the incident, which has sparked concerns among Republicans and Democrats over the frequency with which senior Trump officials are using Signal to hold sensitive conversations."

"Senators say the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is chaired by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), will also investigate the security lapse, according to senators on the panel."

"Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) said if senior officials in the Biden administration had made a similar mistake, Republicans in Congress would be blowing their tops."

I wonder if it's getting a bit too late for Rich to realize the train on this one has left the station...
