But he’s got this cushy job no, on the board of Directors of the Ukrainian National Gas Company>

A cokehead gets a crony job. Imagine that one, eh?

If you like your cocaine, you can keep your cocaine. (I like to beat dead horses).

Hunter’s dad is the one that seems like half his brain has been eaten away.

Is it a normal occurrence for someone so old to be accepted into the Reserves?

Was this an attempt to get him some time in the military in preparation for a future career in politics?

News release to combat presidential options being weighed by the public in case they want to give Obama the boot.

I thought Hunter Biden was already in office somewhere?

I expect Biden will now push to de-criminalize drug use in the Navy.

Is it just me or has anyone else wondered why Hunter Biden at the old age of 43 would want to serve in the USN Reserve as an Ensign in a public affairs unit?

Maybe the thought it was a pubic affairs unit.

Joe Biden actually did have surgery for brain cancer many years ago.

I wonder if the press will hound him the way they did the Bush twins for having a drink.

All the great REMFS started in public affairs. He needs a job piloting a torpedo.

If we could pop a surprise drug test on everyone in government, from the Prez down to the last dogcatcher, bet it’d cut out a lot of deadwood...

Sounds like someone had a little too much fun at their going away party.

Seems a little old at 44 to be joining the Navy as an ensign.

Anyone have any ideas on why this might have occurred?
