What is the Kos ??
May you burn in hell for causing my eyes to read that stuff...:)
Some of the comments are hilarious, though. The funniest one was some guy saying something along the lines of “all the important discussion about bombing Iran has been drowned out in the less important aspect of the truth of the diarist...”
I could copy and paste, but I don’t want to go back in there. I usually let PJ-Comix do that for me...:)
LOl!1 Sorry.
That whole thing stinks every which way...
This blogger is probably laughing his rear end off over all the commotion he has caused with this work of fiction.
Don’t know. Whatever the case, I’d file this one in the “not very funny” category.
Can’t be too many female LSO’s in the Gulf. Time for a little investigation!
I don’t know about laughing, but I will bet they enjoy their secret notoriety...
People over there are a little pissed and feel like tools.
If I didn’t feel like I had to wrap myself and my computer in hazmat garb, I would go back and say...”Yes, all of you ARE tools...”
:)

Don't believe everything you read on the internets

Seriously, just because something online confirms your own viewpoint or prejudices or whatnot, it does not mean it's true.
Skepticism is a virtue.
Now the right-wingers are laughing at the gullibility of those who recommend Maccabee's diaries.
And they are quite justified in doing so.
It seems like a very successful (but short lived) trolling.
They will probably try to IP out the guy if he wasn’t an anon (proxies, IP Spoofing, vpn yadda yadda yadda).
Lol. Classic.
one of the last people who would know before the mission plan is revealed to the crew....
I need some Navy help here (I was Army), but on a large ship isn't a "galley" the kitchen area, where the cooks work, and the "mess" where the crew eats? Would a LSO be in "the galley" at night? Doesn't sound right to me. The use of the term galley may be a giveaway.
This one sentence tells me all I need to know. The whole story is pure BS. Senior Officers who "disappear" (reassigned or demoted what ever) are replaced on the spot it would never take 3 weeks. There is a chain of command that has to be kept and everyone with in that chain would know immediately who they now report to.
This is absolute BS, each and every officer would have been briefed on just what happens in Iran concerning culture and language, so to claim that people dont know by now, people with Silver birds or clusters or even Oak Leafs dont know Iranins speak Farsi and not Arabic, this is pure BS propaganda.
Tes. See 149.
Chaosville is not far off..
The only bad rap we can hang on this guy is over the low quality of the manure he is spreading.
Kos is not concerned at all at the possibility of violations of OpSec, just that his dupes at Daily Kos got very publicly duped.
