“In 2012, Mr. Stavridis was investigated for having improperly used a military aircraft to fly with his wife to an exclusive party in Burgundy, France with winemakers.”

not good for Hilary.

This is a fake out “me too”.

Must be a eunuch; Hillary will play him like a Stradivarius. He will provide cover for her lies.

Would this be an acceptable pick for the #BlackCriminalsMatter movement, or would this pick result in #BlackCriminalsMatter calling for Hitlerbeast’s execution?

If he’d consider working for someone with so little respect for national security and classified information then I don’t have any respect for him. I can understand a D politician blowing off her “mistakes in judgement” but not a military guy.

There is probably more PC & chickification in the naval officer corps than other services. Sorry, but them’s the facts.

Sounds like Hilly & the admiral were made for each other what with sharing misappropriation of government property & abuse of rank. This could be the dream ticket for Republicans.

If Cankles thinks this is how she hides her leftieness, then let’s have it.

you are dreaming if you seriously believe that.

Think of all the small business owners who are tortured by regs.

Those that came to this country in the last century were entirely shut out from any kind of government handout or job.

When the city downtowns died because of democrats their businesses died.

The klan tortured and tormended. They only banding they did was to save to send their children to school to earn a college degree.

They never argued for entitlement or handouts. (it was and still is a humiliation)

you have to look at census information but I believe the last count was 20 dem 80 repub.

20 being the moron dukakises and stephanopolisis (how he went wrong from a family of priests is a mystery)

Face it. Our military is now as compromised as our FBI, CIA, the IRS, all of it. All just a bunch of totally compromised Democrat political house organs.

I’ve been going to our Greek church all my life. I do not know a single Conservative Greek American.

Not one! And they are all anti-American in their foreign policy views.

To hear THEM, everything bad that has happened to the world is America’s fault, !
