His doctoral dissertation was entitled "The American Military and the Lessons of Vietnam: A Study of Military Influence and the Use of Force in the Post-Vietnam Era". Then completed a military fellowship at Georgetown University's Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service in 1994–1995.

A man who was nominated to head the CIA by President Obama and was confirmed by the Senate 94-0 (wonder who the 6 holdouts were).

Is there such a man or is this a myth?

Fortunately for America there is such a man!
Just what we need someone that will support us leaking BILLIONS of dollars a day in unwinnable wars..

You're right let's re-elect a man purported to be one of the brightest Presidents in history yet won't release his college transcripts. A man who is constantly evolving going from a racist pastor to a gay bashing pastor to his current pro-gay, Marxist pastor. Kind of similar to watching the ball in a Olympic Ping-Pong match.

Or we can elect someone that won't release their tax returns becuase they are obviously hiding something while you and I pay our 28-30% a year. Let's vote him in becuase he will surely watch out for us middle class peons.

Or come to this country with $30 bucks and a willingness to work whatever hours and jobs it takes. Over the course of the last few years I've come in contact with almost a hundred if not more individuals who are making a million plus easy a year starting out broke.

And for all that hard work the people who slacked want a piece. Welcome to Socialist America.
