The son of Vice President Joe Biden says he is “embarrassed” after being discharged from the Navy Reserve earlier this year --- reportedly after testing positive for cocaine.

The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, reported Thursday that Hunter Biden’s short-lived military career ended because he failed a drug test after reporting to his unit in 2013. According to the Wall Street Journal, the Navy discharged him in February of this year.

Uh, what? "Hey Hunter. Dust off your nose and stand up will ya?" Hmmm. Seems that a particular lyin' king we all know admitted that he'd done coke "when we could get it" and it didn't seem to have any negative effect on his career. Looks like jojo's boy may have a future in modern politics. And the Navy wouldn't say what type of discharge? Just a general? Honorable but failing to meet BUPERS standard xxx.xx?

Why didn’t they just cover this up and make the Navy discard the test results? I’m confused.

At least he wasn’t doing downers, and was “up” for duty.

How convenient. Now that he’s out of the reserves he can’t be deployed to the Ebola area.

I’m surprised he wasn’t promoted to admiral by the POSOTUS. The CIC has been weeding out patriots for the time when the military’s guns are turned on us ‘peasants’.

I wouldn’t be surprised if VP Joe Biden was also on cocaine.

Looked up some more info on Involuntary Administrative Discharge or Separation at :

http://militaryadvocate.com/practice-areas/administrative-dischargeseparation/

An involuntary administrative discharge (also called administrative separation) is a very serious situation in which the military is attempting to terminate the employment of the military member – in other words, the military is trying to kick the member out of the military. There are three characterizations of administrative discharge:

- Honorable
- General (also called “Under Honorable Conditions”)
- Under Other Than Honorable Conditions (“OTH” or “UOTHC”)

I’m confused by the concept of a 44 year old Ensign. That’s twice the age of his contemporaries, and well beyond the maximum commissioning age of a new-intake Ensign. Even medical doctors have to be commissioned prior to their 40th birthday, and they come in at a higher rank than Ensign, commensurate with their longer schooling. It sounds like he just wanted to say he served, like Johnson did during WWII and Kerry did in Vietnam.

Hunter Biden ( I think that is his name ) joined the Navy as an Ensign (!) at the age of 42. Very off the wall thing to do.

Yes he could. That ole bastard doesn’t have two brain cells to rub together. Besides he has had two strokes in his brain that probably didn’t help the two cells he has.

ala john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry. Maybe the fact that he “joined” (after two waivers, one for his age and one for a drug issue when he was younger) might serve him well in the future should he persue politics like his dad. Kinda like jf’nk. Who served in VN in case anyone doesn’t know.
