Gen Petraeus & Decorum in Security

Facebook-style Gotcha! drama at quite literally the highest level.

 

Yeah, this thing has gone way beyond stupid.

It is safe to say, though, that a lot of people lost their respect for someone who takes part in such a prolonged and ridiculous mess.

 

Certainly.

A part of me is also wondering what kind of people make successful leaders and whether or not those people have functioning testicles.

Maybe these organizations should start issuing Depo Provera to their head shed. No more distractions, productivity would go through the friggin' roof.

 

Female CEOs be bitchslappin' you for correlating success with ownership of testicles.

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah... we're talking about the Good Old Boy Occupations.

So what if it's true?

 

FBI's abuse of the surveillance state is the real scandal needing investigation | Glenn Greenwald | Comment is free | guardian.co.uk

this is an interesting perspective: the american surveillance state, which operates without a whole lot of oversight or regulation because of the Problem of a State of Emergency and accompanying suspension of that pesky law business, may be starting to eat the national security state.

personally, i've been having some fun with this. thinking "the real wives of CENTCOM" or generals gone wild...lots of possibilities.

 

Sorry, when you work for the CIA or other three letter agencies you know that you are fair game for being investigated without your knowledge. You even sign away some of your rights to privacy.

This wasn't a business leader, and the woman wasn't writing a book about a retired guy.

I just wouldn't want to be the FBI agent who gets the call to investigate the Director of the CIA...

 

Spooks be snoopin' his shirtless behind from now on.
