Huh?

[rktman]

clapper is uninformed and a disgrace to the word intelligence.

[Regulator]

Paid for his clearance level.

Which he just blew forever....

[OneWingedShark]

I wouldn’t make dropping out of highschool the big point: after all it merely betrays one’s own indoctrination by the teacher’s unions.

[dirtboy]

Can you say slime disinformation? Sure you can.

We are not governed by moral people. This is the consequence.

[The Antiyuppie]

Wow, I must have done something wrong...well...I guess I didn’t know the right people/relatives...

[dead]

It pays to work for the government.

Al Gore never really worked for anybody else, and he has $300 million dollars.

And it's not even a scandal!

[wideawake]

Is there a possibility he was recruited by the CIA while he was in the Army?

That his discharge and his NSA stint were a cover for another level of training, before he graduated to his Swiss cover?

PS He’s a plant!

Booz Allen Hamilton is majority owned by private equity firm The Carlyle Group, while Booz & Company is owned and operated as a partnership. On November 17, 2010, Booz Allen’s shares of common stock began trading at the New York Stock Exchange.

“The term ‘Muslim Brotherhood’...is an umbrella term for a variety of movements, in the case of Egypt, a very heterogeneous group, largely secular, which has eschewed violence and has decried Al Qaeda as a perversion of Islam,” ... “They have pursued social ends, a betterment of the political order in Egypt, et cetera.....In other countries, there are also chapters or franchises of the Muslim Brotherhood, but there is no overarching agenda, particularly in pursuit of violence, at least internationally.”

—JAMES CLAPPER, February 10, 2011, House Intelligence Committee hearing

If Booz Allen Hamilton was paying him $200,000 then they were probably charging out about $650,000 to the NSA. We are being hosed by the spending practices of our government.

What? Seriously? So a guy who never even graduated from high school (he later reportedly earned a G.E.D.) and started his professional career as a security guard, got hired by a couple of defense contractors and -- at age 29 -- was making $200K a year?

It makes more sense to me than a community organizer becoming president.

[rktman]

Thank goodness. I was scared you were going to say he was a “bush”. LOL!

[PieterCasparzen]

Talented computer people can make 200k without college, trust me.

This scandal is happening while Obama is in office, and yes, Zero’s government does target conservatives, mostly Christians.

But, sadly, the same thing would be going on under a Republican President. Because the government would still be contracting with Carlyle/Booze/etc., that Utah data center would still be going up.

Because globalisters will make sure that the Repub candidate is one who will work with them.

This is a globalism project. If the American people don’t get that, and elect a Republican thinking the problem will go away, they will be sadly mistaken.

Obama is not a commie, he’s not a muslim, he’s a globalist. Just ask Penny Pritzker, and convince her that you won’t tell anyone what she says.

Penny is not a commie. Maybe for us, but not for her.

Communism is a front working on behalf of the super-rich.

Good point!

IT skills trump educational resumes in this world and old guys like me have been slow to realize that.

The public education people are desperate to incorporate computers and modern devices into their institutions to remain relevant.

basically why I dropped out and got my GED as well. I do ok, as well as any of my peers in my chosen field.
