Please spare me the name calling, would you please stick to the issue being discussed?
The post you quoted was from “WillsPowers” — the guy who was having his posts’ crediblity questioned. You probably just quoted your own post.
The response to that post from site regulars was as follows ...
>> “Bitter much about how badly we often shoot you down, Will?”
If they don’t take you seriously at MilitaryTimes forum ... why should we?

Accuracy in Media covers this issue.
It wasn’t my quote. It was a quote from a Military Times Forum post questioning the credibility of MilitaryCorruption.com.
I didn’t namecall ... I simply quoted forum posts to point out that the credibility of this particular site is widely questioned.
Find another source. This one is damaged goods.

My brother-in-law has been trying for 3 years to get his disabilities (and he has many) recognized by the VA. They are constantly shuffling him between doctors for evaluations. His problems were unrecognized as caused by Agent Orange in earlier years. He is supposed to be close to finally getting what he deserves.
Is TPR..a man? Or a woman?
I didn’t say anything against the attitude of rank and file personnel. My son was one of those between 1998 and 2002. I’m only stating that the story is still untold and lots of speculation is going on. I agree that someone seems to be covering up what really happened. My response was a continuation of the speculation told in this story. And I see more harm from higher than the Major in the cover up. She’s probably been instructed that she is not to say anything.
Actually, I remember the story. It may have merit. Accuracy in Media is a reliable source.
MilitaryCorruption.com is not. Questioning extreme newbies is also a good way to weed out belligerent, uncredible, or apology-demanding posters.
Mission accomplished.

I assumed man ... but, with all the whining, its difficult to tell.
(Apologies to the esteemed, non-whining women of FR).

Why do you hate officers so much? I’ve always wondered why enlisted men hat officers. When my son was enlisted, he would relate that fact to me. And when he decided to attend the USAFA, everyone wanted to know why he wanted to be an officer. Just curious.

You re-posted the name calling. Can you imagine substitutine a minority in place of the disparaging "old"? That would never fly. Aparently the Military Times author thought that because someone is old or retired, they don't deserve to be listened to. You reposted this garbage.
As far as another source, Accuracy in Media covered this story, too. Accuracy in Media and Cliff Kinkaid in particular were instrumental in getting the truth out about Bill and Hillary's unethical Arkansas Whitewater dealings when no one in the mainstream media would cover it. There was no Fox News then. I recall fondly listening to AIM on the shortwave in 1991 to get information on a story the media would not cover, a scene reminiscent of the citizens behind the Iron Curtain, but I was in America!
Snake, look at the AIM article and open your mind, friend. I am asking you in the most friendly manner, to look behind the story and often what is not covered says more that what is covered.
You really have your shackles up, don’t you. I think stuff like this happens a lot. And EVERYONE here knows there is corruption in most every aspect of the government, including the military. Thank God that the majority of righteous individuals prevail. And, no, I am not married to ANYONE. But I do have a USAF Captain in my oldest son WHO WAS ONCE AN ENLISTED AIRMAN (4 years). He drives big plains now.
However, since you are so new to this house party let me make a suggestion. Stop pissing on the other guests until you've established some credibility.

Are we buying into the over-sensitivity of liberal interest groups now? Come on. Agism by association? I don’t even know if the guy is old (for instance, he whines like a teenager when questioned).
The militarytimes poster didn’t buy it because it wasn’t a newsworthy source ... I’d bet he’d buy the writings of an old guy from a credible source.
I addressed AIM in my last post.

My friend SnakeDoc: Thanks for having an open mind. I hope we can find out more about this story. It's is just amazing how quickly it fell off the radar and achieved media non-coverage. If I see any more of interest about Major Jill, I will post it to your attention.
No, the comment just struck a nerve with me 'cause I am no longer young. :)
sorry, plains = planes.
I’m nothing if not open-minded ... haha.
I actually never commented on the content of the story prior to my response to you on the AIM source — I simply said I found the original source questionable. That the poster took such offense at even being questioned doesn’t speak much to his stomach for FR. (”You owe me an apology!!” Classic.) He won’t last long.
Go ahead an give me a heads up on actual developments on Metzger. Sounds like an interesting case. You can skip the heads-up if the source is MC.com ... haha.
