I worked with a Major in the USAF who made Michael Moore look tame :) Considering I was his superintendent for a while we had some ... interesting office conversations. Nice guy but politically wrong!

He retired and was going to work on Kerrys campaign in Colorado for a year then find a job. I need to look him up and ask him how that turned out.

As far as promoted. I blame Clinton and the cuts in the 90s. A lot of good officers were RIFed, more good ones saw the writing and left on their own. This left us with a crop of officers in the 90s that frankly sucked. There were a few good ones but promotion to 0-5 got pretty easy.

Ya know whenever you hear from lefties it's conservatives doing this to them. But whenever it's a proven case, or someone gets caught, it's them doing it to us.

We had a woman in Seattle that called the police because someone "Supposedly" defiled her car which had all kinds of lefty stickers on it, by painting an American flag over the entire car. Turns out, she did it herself and was caught on a security camera.

These people never matured past the eighth grade.

deceptive headline - "Air Force officer allegedly vandalized cars with pro-Bush bumper stickers" indicates he defaced cars by putting such stickers on them.

"I bet Article 15 and full retirement."

So how do we do a letter writing campaign and to whom to screw up him getting his retirement annuity?

FY03 Air Force Reserve Line and Health Professions Lieutenant Colonel Select List

Air Force officer accused anti-Bush vandal

August 9, 2005

DENVER --A full-time Air Force Reserve lieutenant colonel could face criminal charges for allegedly vandalizing cars parked at Denver International Airport bearing pro-Bush bumper stickers.

Lt. Col. Alexis Fecteau, director of operations for reserve forces at the National Security Space Institute in Colorado Springs, is believed to be responsible for defacing at least 10 vehicles between December and June, police spokesman Sonny Jackson said Tuesday. A bait car left by a police detective was also defaced and the detective tracked down Fecteau, who turned himself in Friday.

Fecteau supervises 11 full-time and 30 part-time reservists at the institute, which is part of the Space Warfare Center at Schriever Air Force Base, said base spokesman Staff Sgt. Donald Branum.

The bait vehicle was equipped with a camera which was able to capture an image of the suspect and his car. Then a detective was able to find footage from a camera monitoring cars leaving the parking lot and traced Fecteau using the car's license plate, Jackson said.

"National Security Space Institute in Colorado Springs"

I have no idea what that is but I will tell you NASA in Houston is a huge cash cow for the Democrat party as most of the very high paid people who work at NASA are Democrats or identify with them.

New Institute to Focus on National Security Space

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (2/18/05) -- The Air Force Space Command recently established the National Security Space Institute (NSSI) to provide specialized space education and training to space staff members and planners. The institute, which evolved from the Space Operations School previously managed by the Space Warfare Center in Colorado Springs, was inaugurated in October 2004. The goal is to develop a cadre of space professionals who can manage and maintain space systems, draft and prioritize warfare requirements for future systems, and acquire and operate systems based on strategic and tactical needs.


The Aerospace Corporation, through its corporate university, The Aerospace Institute, will support NSSI as it develops and expands its curriculum. Aerospace will help ensure that course content is rigorous, structured, technically correct, and representative of current and future systems.

Aerospace will provide recommendations for the overall NSSI curriculum and assess the technical content of individual courses. Aerospace personnel will also assist with course development. With its experience in space-professional education, Aerospace is in a unique position to recommend curriculum improvements and course enhancements. The Aerospace Institute will also encourage government and military personnel to participate in education and training originally developed for the Aerospace technical staff.

“We hope to leverage our experience in developing and teaching courses in space systems architecting and engineering to the needs of the NSSI,” said Dave Evans, Executive Director of The Aerospace Institute. “We have acquired some valuable lessons about space education and training that can enhance the effectiveness of the NSSI.”

NSSI expects roughly 2,500 students annually. Nearly 60 percent will come from the Air Force; the remainder will come from other military branches and from agencies such as the National Reconnaissance Office.

I have a near overwhelming urge to get some "W1" stickers printed up to be able to put on all those Gore/Liberman (& sKerry) stickers still showing up on cars everywhere.

The way the title read, I was expecting to read that he was vandalizing cars by placing pro-Bush stickers on them.

That's exactly what I thought, do you suppose that choice of words for the headline was an accident or planned that way??

That is the way the source headlined the article. Yes it's deceptive, and I'd bet that choice of words was no accident.
