Major? I don't know who this creep is, but being a major is NO big deal, in fact, if i didn't fear the wrath of God coming down from some retired Major, I'd say he sure didn't rise very far. O4? Come on. Not so much a poser as a loser.

ok, he didn't retire, apparently. But then why bill yourself as "Major"? That says to me that was his highest acheivement and he wants everyone to look at his military career. I'd like to know more about that "career" of his.

**Bevelacqua has a 17-year history of worldwide military experience, including combat in the Gulf War; riot control during the L.A. riots; a peacekeeping mission in Haiti, security assistance missions in West African countries; and numerous anti-drug missions on the U.S. border with Mexico.**
Not even all military time!
another quote: **What was written on paper back in the 1700's I don't think was locked in concrete; it was the foundation we were to build on, but they really didn't have any idea of how many rooms we were to put on the house. They didn't even know about bathrooms at the time, they only had outhouses. So as we change, both technology-wise and in our views of society and man change, this government has to change.**
So ....a living Constitution because the founders didn't know about indoor plumbing????? hmmmm...okayyyyyyyyyy :P

Not that I'm "coming down on you", but there are a bunch of us retired majors out here who were mostly prior enlisted and who were over 20 years of service when the early 90s "peace dividend" came around and were told to retire. There are some who retired as majors at 15-19 years of service because they were given early pro-rated retirements to meet drawdown demands. I fall into the first category, my neighbor falls into the second.

And by the way, he has always seemed to be a poser and a loser.
