Sub commander relieved for hiring prostitutes

Thanks Joe. Unfortunately we are in exactly the same position as before.

I didn't take you for the type to be satisfied with the answer "it's the rule" Jim.

The blanket rule that Joe has shown seems very moralistic. My point was only about US officers needing to obey local laws, but the Bush rule clearly is driven by more than that...

If I had a submarine, and staff, I would make it company policy that the fuckers don't fuck up operation of my fucking submarine by breaking local fucking laws.

If I were authoritarian, I would stick one poor fucker with the whole job, and blame that fucker for everything. (so if an underling got caught breaking a law, it's the Captain's 'fault')

It's nice that it was all the same fucker this time. He fucked up, he should pay (again lol)

I suspect it's a result of the increase in evangelical Christian influence in our military.

Pentagon data analyzed by The Washington Post show a substantial rise in the number of evangelical chaplains in the past decade, along with a modest decline in mainline Protestant ministers and a precipitous drop in Catholic priests, mirroring a nationwide priest shortage.

Evangelicals tend to be more activist, and chaplains collectively have influence in the military. We hear a lot about the church/state issues that have arisen since the Air Force Academy is just north of town.

BTW. If you read the full article, the Lt. Klingenschmitt they report on is an extreme example of this trend.

Those fucking evangelicals, depriving honest working girls their income!

This would never fly onboard Queen Anne's Revenge.

And what about the proud tradition of supporting the troops?

I guess he should have christian side-hugged the prostitutes instead?
