"Can it get any more PC?"That's the name of the game today......unfortunately.
To: ArtyFO
It's a shame that the Academy didn't know you were more qualified for the position. It's a loss for us all.

Can it get any more PC? In your opinion what is it exactly that makes her unqualified for the post?
To: ArtyFO
This title is merit based at the Academy.
I believe they have had female Commandants before,...I think it was before PC ruled the day, as well. They are highly qualified and well respected by ALL members of the brigade.

If he had one, that is.

Under which President?
>>as a Brookings Legislative Fellow in 1997
Bad sign.
>>and on the staff of Senator Olympia Snowe
Another bad sign.
>>She holds a Masters of Education
Possible bad sign.

Question for you navy types ---
How do you get promoted from Capt (0-6) to Rear Admiral (0-8)? Isn't the rank of Commodore (0-7) in between?

She is good and qualified. It aint PC when a woman makes good in a role traditionally assigned to a man. She earned her place.

Congratulations to Capt. Margaret D. Klein for your selection as Commandant of Midshipmen. I'm sure that you will be an excellent "Dant". As an Academy grad and as an NFO, I'm sure that you are tough enough to endure some of the tiresome and tedious remarks such as those few that appear above.
Congratulations also to Capt. Bruce E. Grooms on your well-deserved promotion to Rear Admiral L.H.

What's PC about it? Sounds like she's as qualified as need be. Unless you think women have no place in the armed forces at all, nothing to complain about here.
