Hilarious!

Watson, the plot thickens and the game's afoot...

And if Ohio had just gone the other way and Kerry and Edwards had won in
2004, this pogue Edwards, the Breck Girl, would be the sitting Vice
President of the United States.

POOR Judgment on his part...

And WHY couldn't he find a better-looking woman to sleep with, instead of
this tawdry tart?

Edwards ex-mistress rules out paternity test

Aug 9, 6:58 PM (ET)

WASHINGTON (AP) - The ex-mistress of former presidential candidate John
Edwards says she will not participate in DNA testing to establish the
paternity of her daughter.

Rielle Hunter's lawyer, Robert Gordon, says his client is a private
individual who wishes to maintain the privacy of herself and her daughter.

In a statement, Gordon says that Hunter is ruling out any kind of testing
that could establish who the daughter's father is.

On Friday, Edwards admitted to having an extramarital affair with Hunter in
2006 but denied that he was the father of Hunter's five-month-old daughter.
Edwards said he will take a paternity test to prove he is not the father.

POOR Judgment on his part...

this tawdry tart?

Perhaps there is a Third Man -- in addition to Edwards and Andrew Young...

Ergo, NO Paternity Test desired...

Why we may even find ourselves watching them all crawling through the Vienna
sewers before this is all over.

Then there is that Edwards-Hunter trip to Africa, providing more salacious
details.

The folks at the National Enquirer, who were ignored by the Mainstream
Left-Wing Press, say there is lots more -- including financial scandals and
perhaps even criminal charges before this is all over.

Barack Hussein Obama was also considering this Pogue Edwards for HIS Vice
Presidential Running Mate -- or for ATTORNEY GENERAL of these United States.

Incredible!

This is not the kind of situation for a formal intervention by US forces.

Civilian volunteers are needed and this is an opportunity for our nation's
fervent interventionists to fight the forces of dictatorship,
anti-democracy, and the anti-jebus...

Well, Edwards, and Clinton's wife, and all the Washington cockgobblers

background. It's Bush who was born with money.

By the way, where are you stationed? What outfit?

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things.
The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic
feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.

The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight,
nothing which is more important than his own personal safety,
is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless
made so and kept so by the exertions of much better men than himself.

John Stuart Mill (1806 - 1873) English economist and philosopher.

Look, a punk who's a phony.

Nobody who's a real soldier wants anyone trading on the status.

You're the ponce, punk.

And if he's a real troop, why would he be afraid to state his unit and back
it up by showing he knows the officers running it?

No plot... just American, puritan hypocrisy. The rest of humanity has

Look phony, he's claiming to be a soldier serving in a combat zone, so why
why he be afraid of telling the world what unit he's in?

Anybody with an ounce of character doesn't like people who claim false
credentials, or wear medals they didn;t earn, or claim to be combat soldiers
when they aren't.

By the way, ponce, he's posted through a cable provider in Lousiana. ponce.

How do your little boxed ears feel, tankponce?

Wait a minute. Aren't you the one who one of the female posters, sometime
back, said was claiming to have served in Iraq, but would not say what unit
he was in when challenged on it?

Is that you? Does anybody know if that pertains to this person?

You like to sling around phony, it must be a new word for you.
As for if he is or is not serving in a combat zone you would know he
won't be giving out the unit for operationa security reasons.

LOL.

They paid her over $100k (in donated campaign funds) to make campaign
videos, even though she had never done any of that kind of work before.

I wonder why? If he had got the nomination, they'd have to have a
convention fight to get rid of him and start all over again, which would

Not at all.

He said he's a soldier in a combat zone.

I asked him his unit and some info to back that up.

You think that's stiffling? I doubt anyone else does, but I can understadn

Hahahahahaha.

A regular soldier in the zone can't give his unit designation.

No battalion, company, becasue of "spies". Like it would matter to the
ragheads.

You're saying mail coming out of a theater can't have the sender's name,
rank, and unit ....

How does it get returned if undeliverble?

You're obviuosly coming up very lame here, and I'm wondering why..

Anybody reading this get mail form Iraq or Afghanistan?

I honestly don't want to say anything against somebody who might actually
have served over there, but this secrecy claim regarding routine military
units, simply isn't ringing true.

Troops over there in interviews commonly mention units, and vehicles
commonly have unit designations, etc.

This isn't ww2 - it doesn't do some raghead jihadi much good to know unit
designations.

When you have progressives running around in usenet making calls to
peoples commanders are you suprised he won't give out his unit ?

For that matter would anyone give who they work for at all ?
Would you ?
Think about it from that perspective.

You understand when they give a units name it has been cleared ?

It wouldn't suprise me if they have the equivilent somewhere of an S2
section trying to put an OOB together.
There are trained military folks on th eother side you know.

It is when unit commanders have been called based on information given

Do you give out your bosses name and the company you work for ?

You have jumped on his unwillingness to give you his unit as proof he

That's pretty slim evidence to be claiming anything.

Give me an instance of that happening.

What would a unit commander care, especially if someone was espousing a pro-
Bush line?

There are no prohibitions against military people giving their political
opinions on their off time.


> Do you give out your bosses name and the company you work for ?

If I was claiming credibility by claiming being in the military, or having
been in Iraq, or in some other job that bore relevance to the opinions I was
giving, I certainly would.

Vince Brannigan makes claims on special expertise all the time, and backs it
up by stating his job, and where he works.

William Black makes claims on special expertise all the time, and backs it
up by stating his invovlvemnt in historical societies and buying and selling
antique items.

I never make claims like that - I just post opinions backed up by facts and
logic.

The work I do has nothing to do with my opinions.

You and this "soldier in a combat zone" make an implicit claim of military
credibility, but won't back it up.

Sure it is.

News reports give soldiers units, they sometimes discuss problems with
equipment ( that actually might help the enemy).

Besides you're not in Iraq. If you served there at all , it was a long time
ago.

No sale.

Units move - but mail has unit designations s on it.

Troop's friends and families etc. have their names and unit designations.

There's almost always no miltary security violation in telling people what
unit you were in, or even what unit you're peresntly in.

Nearly incoherent.

He hasn't said he's unwilling - he just hasn't done it.

And neither have you, even though it was years ago and could not invovle
"opsec".

There's no rules about concealing regular unit designations or else the
local news channels wouldn't be broacasting them all over the place.

More likely, it's coming out of somebody's living room as he swills beer.

But, maybe i'm wrong.

So tell us how someone in Iraq or Afghanistan would post on usenet.

I think they would do it on regular web access to google groups, and not
wind up with an IP in Lousiana.

No it hasn't been cleared. It's some reporter talking to guys in a unit and

The news is full of units, casualites in units, places, etc.

They even discuss weapons and vehicles and give out info on vulnerabiltiy to
IEDs etc.

Hilarious!!

Several books I've read, written by American soldiers and Marines from
Iraq, often freely mention people's names and units, and even some
controversial actions.

This morning (8/11/08) I listend to an NPR report on current Special Forces
training and operations in Afghanistan. Units, operations and even names
were freely mentioned with one exception of an SF officer who didn't want
his last name used.

Another NPR piece was with a juror on the al Qaeda driver's jury. He freely
discussed most of the issues, but did want his last name ommited.

;-)))

It's always fun, Dave....

Deeeeelightful!

This "J A" pogue obviously doesn't have even the vaguest understanding of
the AXIOMS of OPSEC, COMSEC and SIGSEC.

Attempting to carry on an actual conversation with him about OPSEC, COMSEC
and SIGSEC would be as useless as trying to converse with a Chihuahua --
because he is a Chihuahua.

He can only spout strawman red herrings, bark and ankle bite...

Never expect any SUBSTANCE from him.

But he provides low-order laughs in the summer, when the far more savvy
regulars here are on vacation.

He wants active duty military personnel, some of them in combat zones, to
reveal personal details about their work environment, operations, units and
supervisors -- whereas HE is totally unwilling to do the SAME, so we can
understand who and what he is, and indeed he always posts from behind a
PSEUDONYM -- and will reveal zip point zero about his OWN work environment,
organization, operations and supervisors -- so we can ascertain if he is
just another pimply-faced kid trying to assume the identity of a grown-up on
USENET.

Ergo his CREDIBILITY is ZERO.

Just another chaise longue chevalier, probably trying to shake loose some
inside information to regale his buddies with at his next bar-hopping
session after work -- as a techno-peon.

Suffice it to say, we are NOT dealing with unsophisticated "ragheads" in
the Global War On Islamofascist, Jihadist Terrorism -- as he so naively
assumes.

'Nuff Said.

If JA is a pseudonym, what is DSH?

They both look like initials to me.

We know that JA stands for J Antero, and we have been told that
DSH stands for David Spencer Hines. (Although there is no
evidence for that except the little you have revealed yourself,
and given your record for dishonesty we know we can't trust
anything you say. Apart from innumerable but worthless
contributions to newsgroup debates, David Spencer Hines seems to
have made no recorded impact whatever on the world.)

What I don't understand is why you feel the need to hide behind
the pseudonym "Julia294". Why the sex change, David? The world
wants to know...

Heh heh .. *my* friend? Tanky is indeed supporting and defending the known
ubberk00k Omega who - despite Tanky's defense of the loon's freedom of
speech - has been held accountable for some of the shite he has posted on
Usenet, including advocating murder of all Democrats and of myself, for
being a liberal Canadian. He also has posted that he would turn a blind eye
in Iraq if his men were to kill [innocent civilians]. Tanky has implied
some "progressive" phoned in his (Omega's) employer. I'm wondering if
Tanky wants to take a little journey through the wayback machine.

I told Tanky and his buddies, and I posted publicly that Omega (I know his
real name) had better STFU or he's going to find himself in a sh*tload of
trouble. In fact, as I told Tanky and his buddies that if Omega were a
Canadian, in the CF, I would have a moral and legal obligation to report his
actions, especially when/if that person expressed homicidal intent. I'm
thinking that either one of *them* made the phone call or that my public
admonitions quieted the loon down a few notches.

Now, back to our regular programming ...

You really should work on your reading comprehension Miss Lan.
I'm not implied any such thing.
Infact you are also aware of oone of th eincatnaces of a soldiers unit
being called, or have you forgoten ?

You know I've busted good old Oggemga out any number of times in the
past for his stupid ideas and his obscene comments.
If I'd though he was doing anything more than making outragious
statements for the purpose of pissing people off it's an easy matter to
look up his unit in AKO and turn him hin.

Not credible to anyone who listens to newscasts, or reads news articles
from Iraq or Afghanistan, and has heard units mentioned.

Especially not credible regarding mentioning a unit served in years before.

As I've said before, I don't want to discredit someone who has actually
served, but there are a lot of wanabes who want to pretend they have, or
are, serving.

It's "OPSEC".

When the gormless git is posting his important undercover "briefings" to us
as "Julia", he's in mufti, down to the pantyhose, for "OPSEX", oops, I
mean OPSEC.....

When posting as "Tiger" (not very imaginative since he uses "Panther" in a
DSH email address), imagine him in a lavender Edwardian polyester
leisuresuit, flashy bling jewlery, with a giant Afro hair piece..., Isaac
Hayes would be proud..
"he da maaain" ...

But, since this goes to a British group, and it's about "OPSEC", let's move
on to something more relevant than DSH's incessant quacking....

http://www.juancole.com/

" Suskind reveals that skillful British agents had managed to develop two
highly placed sources within the Iraqi government prior to the start of the
war--the head of intelligence who supposedly wrote the incriminating letter
and the foreign minister.

Both told the British that there were no weapons of mass destruction and
explained why. This news was passed to the White House, which chose to
ignore it. Suskind points out that the CIA had been totally unable to
develop such sources. He also tells an even more alarming tale about how
George Bush deliberately blew the British operation that was watching the
development of the plot to blow up airliners over the Atlantic.

Despite American urgings to shut the plot down immediately, the British
wanted to wait until the plotters revealed their plans and contacts. They
were forced to act prematurely when the US had Pakistan arrest a key
intermediary between the plotters in Britain and al-Qaeda.

The purpose was apparently to allow Bush to claim progress in preventing
terrorism in the run-up to the 2006 congressional elections. "

Now, that's "OPSEC".

I figured you would dodge the issue.
If you have never had the briefing you haven't a clue what a soldier is
told he can and cannot tell the random reporting who walks up.
News stories and broadcasts both had a PAO around during the research
and if a unit is mentioned it was with permission.

Now wait a minute, somebody refered to you being in Iraq.

And how could you be in an armored unit, and NOT wind up for at least one
tour in Iraq, or Aghanistan?

Are you at Lewis?

Why are so evasive?

All the military people I know are proud of their service and freely talk
about their units and jobs.

What kind of weapons or AFVs are you familiar with?

Or is that a secret, too?

Why would you assume that I am in an armored unit ?

Do you assume all "tankfixer" are assigned to them ?

The nym I use here is from my early days on USENET.

So you worked on tanks, but transferred to arty, infantry, aviation over the
last 5 or 10 years?

Is this more OPSEC?

Ah, I see, the "progressives" create the need for "OPSEC".

I think I do.

Of course they do. It's just you that doesn't.

Some of them discuss their service freely in here.

So you've been in armor a long time, but no Iraq or Afghan duty, and your
fear of "progressives" keeps you from telling us anything about where you're
serving now..

OK. ;-))

Some nice progressives took her to the country.
Never came home.

So enough about me, why don't you tell us where you work and what you do
?
Maybe who your boss is too while you are at it.
I'm sure it's all very relevant to your vast knowledge of the US Army.

Really, so why don't you show us which one it was.

I guess if I killfiled everyone who's ideas or comments I didn't like

No, no, it's the people not thinking at all that are Republicans. Did
you catch McCain?

"So, to move on to domestic questions, Steve Schmidt, who is running
your campaign, has said something kind of simple and understandable.
He said that a campaign needs one positive message about its candidate
and then one good, strong negative message about the opponent. Your
camp —

I never heard that statement, and I'd have to know who attributed it
to him before I would agree with that. We're not sending any negative
message in our campaign. We're drawing differences in positions
between myself and Sen. Obama, which are significant. He wants to
raise taxes; I want to keep them low. He doesn't want to drill
offshore or have nuclear power; I want both. I've never heard Steve
Schmidt say we need a negative message in the campaign."

Well lets see
One loyal bushie, the AG, just decided that no lying cheating loyal
busies can be held responsible for appointing other loyal bushies
unlawfully to federal jobs , and no, the guys who got the jobs have
nothing to worry about Since Bushies stole them fair and square by

The New York Times


August 13, 2008
Editorial
Mr. Mukasey in Denial

Conservatives like to talk about personal responsibility, but Attorney
General Michael Mukasey does not seem to think it applies to the Bush
administration. In a speech on Tuesday, he described the shameful
politicization of the Justice Department as a "painful" episode in which
"the system failed."

Mr. Mukasey made no mention of the role played by his predecessor,
Alberto Gonzales, and other members of President Bush's inner circle.
There is by now strong reason to believe that they were involved in
plans to fire United States attorneys for political reasons, fill other
important positions on the basis of partisanship rather than competence
and order prosecutions designed to help Republicans win elections.

The department has never properly pursued the bad actors. It has shown
no real concern for the victims. Mr. Mukasey's cynical remarks shrugging
off the whole scandal should prod Congress to pursue it even more
vigorously.

The Justice Department's inspector general and its ethics office have
issued a pair of reports confirming that top aides to Mr. Gonzales
improperly used political litmus tests to fill nonpolitical positions.
The politics was remarkably crude. One example: a career terrorism
prosecutor was turned down for a counterterrorism position because his
wife was an active Democrat.

Mr. Mukasey told the American Bar Association that he did not see any
crimes to prosecute. "Not every wrong, or even every violation of the
law, is a crime," he said. In any case, the wrongdoers have been
punished, he claimed, by "substantial negative publicity."

Differences in policy, are you saying candidates can't critizise thier
opponents espoused policies ?

Negative is floating the rumors the Clinton campaign slipped into the
media about Obama during the primaries.

You act like you are amazed that partisanship had anything to do with
the appointment of government officials.
Do you actually think this might be the first time it happened Vince ?

So what is your solution Vince ?
Tar ?
Feathers ?

If you think they should be prosecuted then tell us what statute you
intend to charge them under ?
Or is this just more of your virulent hatred of Bush showing through ?

These are civil service merit appointments
Its a law

They broke the law, they knew it and the Bush Administration is making
sure they get away with it

For the 4th time - * I haven't claimed any. *

All I'm asking is that since YOU have made such cliams, that you support
them with proof.

As I've said before, there are a lot of wanabe pretenders claiming service,
that don't deserve to.

Like some guy who says he's a sodiler in a combat zone, but posts through a
cable TV hookup in Lousinana.

Again, that's a stupid thing to say.

You claimed to be a vet, not me.

It's you who has been evasive about his claims all through the thread, not
me.

You've been in the US army for a long time, you say, but no Iraq or Afghan
duty ?

From where you're posting there's, there's only one army base - Fort Lewis,
but you have claimed not to be based there.

The army doesn't care about anybody's usenet posting, off-duty.

LaN knows better than to say such a thing.
I'd hope she steps up to the plate here and say so.

Ray Ohare is hardly an endorsement for any cause.

Why don't you tell us what claims you think I have made ?

So the basis of your claim that I'm not is because I won't tell you my
whole life story here on USENET ?
That's a mighty slim thread to hang on to.

If he is the same fellow who used to post as "omega" then he is in the
Army.

JA is *spit* indeed in my killfile, and I haven't even read most of the
messages in this thread. Am I to assume that JA is questioning that Tanky
isn't bona fide? Well, he is the real deal, and I respect him as a member
of the U.S. armed forces. I actually quite like the guy - TankFixer, know
him IRL. It's just his politics that suck at times ... :)

You know that thing he wasn't convicted of? Well, he can't be pardoned
for it because that removes any immunity from self-incrimination.

He was convicted of making false statements to the FBI, perjury (repeating
those false statements to the Grand Jury) and obstruction of justice -
making those false statements in order to prevent the Grand Jury from
establishing who actually did leak Valerie Plame's identity.

And the whole point of the fuss was that she was not normally a "desk
jockey".

Concur - there's solid evidence he's not walting[1], and he knows his
shit backwards on his specialist subjects.

He's also an okay guy - agree with him on some things, disagree on
others, but it doesn't turn nasty.

<http://www.arrse.co.uk/wiki/Walts>
[1] 'Walt' - Walter Mitty - wannabe, bluffer, nuisance, cnut. It comes
from 'The Secret Life of Walter Mitty', written by humorist James
Thurber and published in The New Yorker in 1941. A walt is an individual
who believes, or wishes others to believe, that he or she be something
he be not. They are often found bidding on 'Genuine SAS' KFS and other
items on eBay and usually act the Internet Tough Guy. Outing Walts is
the official sport of ARRSE.

The degenerate liar infested hag doesn't like me becasue I called her on a
lie she tried to float, during the primary races involving Clinton''s wife
and Obama.

Degenerate liars hate being revealed.
Anything she has to say is suspect, and is almost always inane.
