This is an active duty captain? I think he can forget about ever getting those stars on his collar.We have known about him for days:
Aug 22, 2005 - Shaffer said he and a Navy officer disagreed with that and tried to set up meetings with the FBI, but each time the idea was rejected by lawyers from the Special Operations command. The statement by Kean and Hamilton said only Atta was mentioned to the commission staff as being identified by Able Danger. They were told by a Navy officer about Atta 10 days before the commission released its report in July 2004, but the officer did not have documentation to back it up, the statement said. Several defense officials on Wednesday identified the Navy officer as Capt. Scott Phillpott.

He had declined to speak to the media earlier, he had to get clearance to publicly comment, so I don't think I'd be worried about his status.

"The big question is, why is the New York Times printing stories that may prove immensely damaging to their politics? It's totally out of character."
Because the Slimes are going to try to innoculate Hillary from all of this. They want this addressed now so it doesn't come up again in 2006.
This is Hillary damage control at its finest.

"Lt. Col is an O-5, isn't a Navy Captain a pretty high rank?"
Yep! Equivalent to full col.

Again it is the "LAWYERS" The Klinton LAWYERS.
Lawyers are like guns, it's who uses them and for what, that makes all the difference. As with a gun, when you need a lawyer, you really, really need one.

I'm laughing, because the makers of "Inside 9/11" came up with corroboration for Shaffer and Phillpott, without ever talking to them. I didn't catch that the first time, but I did the second time I watched part one.
However we don't know they didn't talk to one or the other, or both, of them, since they didn't identify the source of that particular piece of information.

Getting promoted to O-6 in the Navy brings a profound degree of freedom to most officers.
The probability of selection to Rear Admiral is extremely slight. Unless you are in certain warfare specialties on certain career paths, it is nonexistent.
You have devoted a lifetime of service to the Navy and now have three to eight years to improve all of the things you identified on your way up the ranks.
As long as you don't do it for personal gain, don't involve prodigious quantities of alcohol, or get involved in inappropriate relationships, you are bulletproof.
It is a target rich environment, you have all the authority and responsibility you need, you just need to be judicious in your goal setting.
It's a beautiful thing!
CAPT Scott J. Phillpott is a patriot. Our Navy and our Nation are honored by his service.
