I think he is an excellent soldier and former CIA director. I still think government officials open themselves up to potential security issues when they do stupid things like this. It doesn't matter if it's actually happened yet. And, puritanical, old-fashioned and uncool as it may seem, I still believe in fidelity, integrity and honesty. I also, probably foolishly, believe public servants should display a modicum of each characteristic. The problem we have in our US culture is our standards for competence and behavior in public servants have been lowered, or dumbed-down, so far, no one is accountable for anything they do. We've had a war on poverty since 1965 and we have 50 million people on food stamps after trillions of dollars spent. If our government were a corporation, the peasants would be calling for the CEO's head!
That's all the politics I'm gonna comment on. I'll say no more!!!!!
