He was discharged in February, and it’s just being reported. I’m surprised the media didn’t wait until after the elections to release this.

My thought too. Trying to insulate himself from future anti-military charges on the campaign trail. Of course, if a Republican was guilty of doing cocaine, that’s supposed to disqualify them from holding public office.

Well, Amtrak Joe can always use Grateful Dead’s Casey Jones on 2016 campaign stops.

If Joe Biden was my father, I'd be doing drugs too.

Excellent, he’ll make a great Senator!

He was discharged in February, and its just being reported. But he failed the test in June - why did it take so long for the discharge?

This is a scandal and will not help Dems in the elections.Hate to disappoint you but doing drugs is considered resume building for Democrats. Just look at BO's boasting about cocaine use. It made him even more cool with the druggie crowd.

“Dismissal,” I would think. Just as bad as a Dishonorable Discharge but being the VP’s son that wont matter much... unless his law firm doesn’t want him.
If I was the head lawyer of that firm, I’d jettison the scumbag.

Probably the same reasons he was given those two waivers...connections? Unless there's a paper process that has to go up the ranks. If he wasn't Biden's kid, he probably would have been discharged immediately.

I’m not military. . .the sound of dishonorably discharged sounds worse than discharged. Clients of the law firm (especially military) should demand they fire him as in yesterday.

I don’t believe so.
Most likely a “general” which is NOT an honorable.

His father is not only insane, he is a chronic sexual harasser.
I saw a C_SPAN video of Biden swearing in a Democrat member of the Senate a couple of years ago. The Senator's wife was with him. At the front of the desk where the oath was to be given, Biden gives her a "hug", reaches down to her hips, rubs up and down, and says "maybe I am going to frisk you?"
This is freakin on camera somewhere.
What the hell?
And the press tore Dan Quayle apart for reading the exact words that were printed on a 3"x5" card about the spelling of the word "potato." It said "potatoe" on the card, that is what the brilliant teacher (who belonged to the wonderful NEA union) printed there!

Any other Ensign would have faced a Captain’s Mast, been convicted, and sentence to hard time.

I am sure you are right. I always thought they were high on something.

Commissioned Officers, if I remember our UCMJ correctly, are normally “Dismissed From Service” as a result of triable offenses under the UCMJ.
JAGS?

Actually, the commander of his unit should preferred charges for the drug use. But then again, Hunter is who he is. Get it?

Well, Amtrak Joe can always use Grateful Deads Casey Jones on 2016 campaign stops. Or J.J. Cale's "Cocaine."
