Hmm. I know people who “trained for special forces” long before they applied to get into special forces, and in some cases even before they ever joined the military. I am suspicious of the “Snowden lie hunt”. It sounds like a Chicago operation to me.
Is it true that Snowden was talking to the reporter who broke the NSA scandal story BEFORE Snowden has been hired by the company whose “secrets” he took and shared? Is it true that Snowden had only worked for that company for three months before leaking said information? There is something not right about all of this.
That is simply not true as the statement from the Special Warfare Center & School below clearly points out. "Snowden was never a student at SWCS. He broke his legs while at Fort Benning. His intent was to enter the X-ray program but that never happened and would not have happened because he only had a GED. Hope this helps
Sounds like semantics to me too........Snowden never claimed to be involved at the SWCS, he was training to get there...........At least they had the courtesy to admit that his claim to broken legs was legitimate.
An hour and 100 replies later, no further comment from you?
What I read said that he broke both legs while training for SF school. That sounds pretty accurate.
Folks need to buff up on their reading comprehension.
And you've verified that this gal is legitimate? Must be, it's on Facebook......LOL!
Let’s all ignore the fascist government attacking our civil rights and talk about whether a guy broke his leg.
Let's see, this blogger admits that Snowden was indeed in the military and intended to enter the X-ray program. Never happened? One would think that the military recruiter would gave known that a GED wouldn't have qualified Snowden for the training he signed up for........
THIS IS NOTHING BUT AN UNSUBSTANTIATED BLOG SPOT............
If the IRS could hammer Obamas political opponents over their political views, why would anyone expect that this type of surveillance would NOT be used in the same way.
Bingo!!
5.56mm
speaking of that.... whatever happened to the suspected Boston bomber who was in the hospital and then got his records changed after a sudden, mysterious visit by a high-muckity-muck Arab to the white house.
Did they manage to sneak him out of the country while we were looking elsewhere?
Pretty weak tea.
CJ Roberts is the type to eat a bullet not confess. He alerted my gay-dar early on and I think it is his homo status not the illicit adoptions that got him in trouble.
Uhn huh.... worked directly for DOD you say.
Doing what?
I’m not seeing the lie here at all. Just sounds like he was training for SF and wasn’t completely aware of every requirement.
It seems to be grasping at straws to dismiss him, much like the 120,000/200,000 disparity which can be rather easily explained by benefits (assuming we are to believe Booz Allen).
Either way, this amounts to more messenger shooting. I predicted on day one that they’d have him painted as a child molesting communist Muslim Tea Partier by the time they’re done, and they’re well on their way. Sadly, some people are just lapping it up.
All the while, the entire surveillance state is focused on this one man for some reason. Odd thing to do to a liar.
Thanks for that info.
I’ll tell you one thing thats really pissing me off and thats this elitist additude everyone including freepers seem to have towards anyone who didnt get a big fat shiny high school diploma(yes, i have one) . Big flippin deal. Doesnt make him stupid or unemployable. The crap thats being spewed about people who have GRD’s is incredibly snotty. We dont know why he didnt get the diploma or what was going on in his life at the time but he went on to correct that lack and apparently did well for himself until now. Hawaii....200,000 a yr. Salary, cia job...geez everyone if he can do all that with just a GED id love to see what he could have done with a mgical h.s. diploma
You left out gun owner, Christian, and hunter. And you will also notice that a good number on this forum are after his scalp.
and thanks for that info. That clears up any questions about the SF issue.
