Racist? I still don't understand how a post detailing the utter corruption of the Pentagon and all of Poindexter's circle compares to the stench of genuine anti-Semitism and think it's weird you've managed to work it in somehow.

If I've learned anything from the "War on Drugs", DC scandals, Clinton's impeachment or the Bush Administration's defenses of traitors and rehiring of the tainted, it's that the same rules DO NOT apply to citizens and the Elite.

They are the elite, after all. In fact, I figured that's why all their companies had "Dyn" in the name. The dynatoi being the natural superior to the demos dinks like us who float them, excuse them, elect them and defend them depending on how much we do -- or are forced -- to believe in them.

It's an analogy - if it troubles you, consider the other analogy about the pot-smoking mailroom boy instead.

Whether that's true or not, nothing you've posted so far about Poindexter suggests to me that he has somehow escaped a fate that surely would have been in store for lesser mortals such as you and I. Whether your conclusion about how the rules apply to "them" versus "us" is actually true or not is irrelevant - Poindexter does not, IMO, support such a conclusion. If you have other cases or examples you wish to point to instead, I'll be more than happy to consider them, of course.
