I live within a hundred miles of Washington DC with some government types (I am a government employee myself, one of two jobs) and I’ve run across some military people who have issues like me, I call myself a ‘drunk currently sober’.
I could say based on my experiences with these folks that our military has issues in it ranging from drugs to alcohol to porn-sexual issues etc. etc. etc.
Obama doesn’t help morale, that’s for sure and low morale probably drives some of our people in uniform to bad decisions to intoxicate themselves with overspending, overdrinking, over the top sexual activity etc.
But there are rules and consequences for the wrong kinds of activity and some military people luck out and others face strong disciplinary action.
The article linked at #7 states that Hussein fired this admiral because he questioned the use of naval personnel to conduct a personal house hunt for Hussein in Dubai.
There’s an old saying, “don’t dip your pen in the company ink”.
Government computers should be used for official business, period. It’s too easy for IT monitors to profile somebody based on their nonofficial/unauthorized computer usage.
When you call the IT Helpdesk & they easily `remote in’ to your desktop to solve hardware problems, you see what they know.
My guidance was, while on your government PC, assume that both your commanding officer and your Mom are looking over your shoulder as you work.
After duty hours, go home & log on to whatever.
