He should borrow the Clinton line. "It was just sex."

The Uniform Code of Military Justice leaves punishment for conduct unbecoming an officer up to the court-martial.

I would think running against Barton would be punishment enough. :)

Defense #1: "I thought enlisted personnel were supposed to be under officers."

Vaughan said that she and Harris ended their relationship in 2005. She turned over e-mail correspondence between her and Harris to Army investigators. She also provided copies to the Star-Telegram.

Good thing the Ho kept the emails. Will be interesting to see how she transferred to the AF. Maybe Maj. (lawyer) Hackett will represent Harris.

Cynical prediction: He'll be elected and promoted to LTC.

Harris, who enlisted in the Army in 1992 and became an officer two years later, became active in the veterans-for-peace movement after returning from Iraq in 2005

Which means running as a RAT he should be above the UCMJ and should not have to obey the same rules and regs that are for the little people.

A true Kerryite.

This is a tough one. If he was in her chain of command, or this was going on while they were activated, then there is a case.

Reservists not extended active duty are not subject to quite the same rules, although normal sexual harassment rules do apply.... but maybe not to Democrats, since otherwise BJ Clinton would have been prosecuted under those laws.

One can imagine a couple not even knowing that the other was a reservist, unless they were in the same unit.
