Army General Scolded For Email Joking About Masturbating To 'Smoking Hot' Congresswoman
Business Insider ^ | January 27 | Geoffrey Ingersoll

Posted on 02/04/2014 8:01:59 PM PST by Red6

Army Brigadier General Martin P. Schweitzer received a "memoranda of concern" following a lurid set of emails between him and another general, according to documents obtained by The Washington Post.

Schweitzer was briefing Brigadier Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair on a recent meeting he had with tea party Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-N.C.) in 2011.

From WaPo:

“First — she is smoking hot,” Schweit­zer wrote. “Second — briefing went well . . . she was engaging . . . had done her homework. She wants us to know she stands with us and will work/push to get the Fort Bragg family resourced.”

I agree about the double standards you’re pointing out. However, when you are in a position of authority / leadership, you should be very discerning about what you put into an email.

Anyway, to each his own, why does this man’s army care.

There are some things that are best left private...particularly when the luster has stars on his shoulders and the lustee has oversight authority over said officer.

I’ve had a lot of rum this evening but even with that she is barely lukewarm.

“I don’t think too many guys advance to flag rank by being stupid.”

Offered in rebuttal: Gen. Petraeus. Thinking with the wrong head can strike any rank & usually with disastrous results.

Used to be if you didn’t want to step on a mine, you avoided minefields. In today’s military, you carry a minefield around in your shirt pocket.

Who ever called her hot needs to get glasses. Really strong ones.

The typical fella of my age certainly wouldn't throw her out of bed.But when I was 20 my attitude might have been different.

Compared to Bill Clinton’s women, the General is right.

I agree this is ridiculous. Warriors make crude jokes. so what? This incident says less about this general and more about the chain of command and illustrates the nonsense they focus on

I wouldn’t convict her, but probation perhaps. Her innocence is questionable. Maybe she gets off with community service.

Male perception of female beauty is often relative.

Perhaps he recently met with Sheila Jackson Lee, Maxine Waters or Hilary Clinton!

This guy should just put in his papers and retire. One thing about flags is that very few of them are irreplaceable and there are plenty of guys that can take his job tomorrow.

It isn't a matter of political correctness. It is a matter of discipline.

When you’re a whippersnapper you have a different perception regards beauty.

Never mind Gen. Schweizer’s stupid email. This is small potatoes compared to the general he was conversing with (Sinclair). He’s facing 35 years in the brig for a multitude of offenses including sodomy, pornography and conduct unbecoming an officer. His court martial starts next month I believe.

Several years ago at a wedding, I met a young grandmother (she was 52, I was 57) who was pretty “smoking hot” for her age - a well-tailored cocktail dress showing off a shapely figure and stunning legs. She looked better than a number of the bride’s sorority sisters and I wasn’t even drinking (designated driver back to the hotel).
