4-Star General Relieved of Command Due To "Unspecified Personal Conduct"

The article notes it's rare indeed for someone this high up in the chain of command to be booted for such a thing.

I'll avoid the speculation as to which obvious-candidate "personal conduct" violation he's being investigated for. But I'll mention that a little bit of Internet Detective work discloses that he is or at least was married, which makes one obvious possibility a little less likely and another obvious possibility a little more likely.

Thanks to Andy the Squirrel.

MSNBC Specifies the Unspecified Personal Conduct: Says it's an investigation into "potential infidelity."

Thanks to DB.

Andrew Sullivan was just overcome with "heart-ache." He was so hoping it would be the other one. You know the one I mean. That would've provided him with material, and bandwidth donations, for six months, easy.

While ugly news, I can't help but be relieved it wasn't yet another Air Force guy.

Sheesh. Ya'd think it was a frat.

Cheers,

OT - Ace, check this out. Absolute must-read at RCP today.

"[T]he economy guy went to the [flight attendants] in the back and asked them if we had been up in the air for 3 1/2 hours yet. He kept asking when 3 1/2 hours would be. At the same time, the 14D guy went up to the BC [flight attendants] and asked if we'd been flying 3, 3 1/2 or 4 hours yet..."

Maybe the general was caught reading Ace of Spades HQ.

I had forgotten he had several assignments with the 1st Cav. We were practically neighbors.

Hey, how come the Freak-Out Advisory hasn't moved to red?

Probably got caught groping a 3-star woman general...

"Maybe the general was caught reading Ace of Spades HQ'

More likely caught living the Ace of Spades Lifestyle(tm)!

When a coworker and I saw that scroll across the screen on Fox News I said, "Must've been caught bangin' his enlisted aide." Fellow NCO replied, "I was just thinking the same thing."

"Unspecified Personal Conduct" is usually along those lines.

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver.
It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.

Lost 90s Mystery Click: College Radio Edition
Well you look fantastic in your cast-off casket
At least the thing still runs

Whose suicide you're on.

Also:
You wax poetic about things pathetic
As long as you look so cute
Believe these hills are starting to roll
Believe these stars are starting to shoot

I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:

Days Are Important: The Amount of Days Was a Number and That Number Was 100 Plus 7 Which is 107. 107. One Hundred and Seven. It's a Memoir and Memoirs are About Remembering Things Because Remembering Things is Good. Not Bad. Good. Memoir. A Memoir. Like a Reservoir But With Memory. We Have to Let it Flow. We Have to Let It Flow Into the Reservoir of Our Mind and Our Heart. Our Heart Which is the Beating Heart of Not Just Our Blood, But Our Progress. And Our People. And Democracy. The End.

Soft weak poop from the early 80s Mystery Click
I never liked this song, but it is memorable. In a weak, annoying way.
The kid's in shock up and down the block
The folks are home playing beat the clock
Down at the golden cup
They set the young ones up

Selling day for night
It's alright
Nobody rides for free (nobody, nobody)
Nobody gets it like they want it to be (nobody, nobody)
Nobody hands you any guarantee (nobody, nobody)

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.
