You don't need me to help with that. Nonetheless, I'm here to help. “Walz attained the rank of command sergeant major and served in that role." So, the way I read that statement, it needs no winnowing. It's either true or false. It was stated as true, Is it false? How could he "serve in that role" if he didn't attain it? Definition literary (of the wind) blow: "the autumn wind winnowing its way through the grass" I see a common thread.  ************* Degenerate 1:1 1 Then Trump said, "Let Us re-make a Nation in MY Image, after My likeness, to rule over everything in the Nation, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it".

You have nil business experience right? Where "acting" role name means until filled or you earn it. I have been CIO once, and interim/acting twice. I didn't apply for the interim roles He didn't EARN csm.. it's a blatant falsehood to say otherwise, as he didn't finish his COMMITMENT to the training but was temporarily assigned the rank before promotion. He didn't pass course, didn't pass the board tests, and didn't complete the additional 2 year enlisted commitment required in his COMMITMENT He act as a CSM, sure enough, known to be a temp rank until earned or separated from the military. I posted an article from his commanding officer flatly stating he didn't complete even one assignment as csm.

“Walz attained the rank of command sergeant major and served in that role." So, you're saying basically the same thing as the Harris campaign, but with vitriol added. Someone assigned the rank. He didn't assume it. It's a simple question: Did Walz serve in the role and rank assigned as command sergeant major? It's a yes or no question. But you can't say it. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/0...Y1F-O&smid=url-share Vance Attacks Walz’s Military Record, Accusing Him of Avoiding a Tour in Iraq Senator JD Vance of Ohio also claimed Gov.

What was wrong with Walz just telling the truth about his service? People would have been, Oh, good job, thankyou. Instead he, Blumenthal and others have to exaggerate. To what end does it get them, other than to piss of real combat vets? | |||

The answer of "attained" is the fulcrum. Attaining rank, enlisted, requires meeting the terms and conditions, he was assigned the rank, with the assumption that he would complete his commitment to earn it. If you need it dumbed down to pondscum mentality, no, he never earned the rank. If you want to play word games with stolen valor, I am not your huckleberry Have they (harris campaign) restate his actual rank in press releases? Yes Did he retire as an e9 csm? Nope Did he complete the requirements to make e9 csm? Again,, nope But Timmy could solve this by posting a single picture of his dd214.

That's exactly what you are doing. The question is: Did Walz serve in the role and rank assigned as command sergeant major? You have already answered the question. So what's your huff about?

Do you not understand that given the temp ranknof csm without completing the requirements isn't earning it? Outside of war time, as fat as I know, this is the ONLY enlisted situation where temp rank is assigned before meeting requirements. Did he earn it? No. And he and the Harris campaign now agree that he didn't. You utter lack of understanding of the process is causing your blockage.

Bloody hell, this thread is still going... So Waltz lied. Has he done it once, or more than once? Lets say 50 times... so score 50 for for Wally Now tell me what Trumps score is ... I wont vote for anyone who I perceive to be dishonest or lacking in integrity, but it sure is fun to point out the slight variance in the current score board.

He didn't say, nor did the Harris campaign say he "earned" it. Say that's a fact. You are playing word games, again. Oh, you already said it:
The word game is the use of "agree".

M E, I will try to answer this statement. Yes you can serve with the title (important distinction here) as CSM which Waltz did, before actually being promoted to that rank. This can be very confusing to anyone that has not been in the military. So to your statement above, Waltz saying he retired a CSM is an outright lie, saying he served as a CSM is true. Now just because the Harris/Waltz campaign has changed Waltz's bio on their website does not change the fact that he has been saying he retired a CSM for years. This may not sound like a big deal, but to those that have served, it can be a huge deal, to others that have served maybe not so much. Maybe saying Waltz was the "acting" CSM of his battalion may make it a bit more understandable. | |||

Well, that's a very reasonable and understandable explanation, Gundog. Thanks for the respect. I did serve, BTW, just not is a way that would inform me of the glitch with Walz. I'm not on your case, playing with words and such. Quote: "Maybe saying Waltz was the "acting" CSM of his battalion may make it a bit more understandable." They claimed he "served" as CSM, which apparently is true. That's different in my understanding of the words. "Acting" to me implies pretending. Serving is not pretending. I do know what you mean, in context, acting is serving in the capacity of the rank claimed. Anyway, I think making a big deal out of it is being indignant over smoke. ************* Degenerate 1:1 1 Then Trump said, "Let Us re-make a Nation in MY Image, after My likeness, to rule over everything in the Nation, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it".

For once, we agree. I utterly don't understand how some NEED affirmation so much that they make a big deal out of misstatements and nothing burgers, and the process of rationalizations in a steady stream, especially when reasonable explanations are presented. But I can understand and recognize when it happens. We all misstate stuff sometimes. But that's not what is representative of character. Something that IS a reflection on character, IMO, is needing and valuing affirmation more than objectivity and reasonableness. ************* Degenerate 1:1 1 Then Trump said, "Let Us re-make a Nation in MY Image, after My likeness, to rule over everything in the Nation, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it".

What’s good for the goose…. I wrote the word “foible” and then looked at the definition thereof to make sure it was more than a little appropriate. I then, so advised, continued its use, with complete confidence that the mentally competent readers (including Mike and you) would recognize Kamala and Walz have no sword except the weakness of mind they posses and the stupidity of their flock of useful idiot sheep.

Acting in this context refers to an assignment to a position. Gov Walz was assigned the role of CSM. He was given time duties of a CSM. remain in that assigned role he had to go to the academy and complete that training. He did not. Thus, when he retired he retired as a Master Sergeant which was his fully vested pay rank. How long between being assigned the duties of a CSM and retiring? I do not know. He was not pretending to be anything. Jeff is not saying he was pretending. | |||

It looks to me like you are really pleased and satisfied with yourself for disparaging and demeaning the military service of a patriot. It looks to me like you are contradicting yourself. On the one hand you say you support and respect vets and warriors regardless of their foibles, yet because of his political affiliation, righteously disrespect another vet who served honorably. To really get this into perspective, let's step back a bit and look at the bigger scene as to who you support. It's really the twisted flip side which is the motive for these shameful self-righteous moral rationalizations.

Jesse Ventura is also a stolen valor type. His service in Vietnam was as a frogman, not a seal. They did the same BUD/S initial training back then, but were different. His whole thing was he was a SEAL because the Navy changed how they kept specialties after he was out of active duty, but before he formally separated from the service so his DD214 says naval special warfare. Not too many SEALs think that highly of Ventura from what I’ve heard. I fully agree the commentary about Walz and his retirement/ service history is rather “thin gruel” as MJines puts it, but factually Walz overstated his military service. He used it to make himself seem more highly qualified than he actually is. His actual service is more than we have had for some time, so is his overreach on claims a bigger deal than not having the experience at all? While I don’t personally think so, it is a sign that the facts are malleable to him. | |||
