Not run around hiring prostitutes.
When you are on a Secret Service detail outside the country, you are "on duty" 24-7. If you're hiring prostitutes, you aren't doing your damn job. Thomas Jefferson wasn't a Secret Service agent. "Men have given up a lot in modern times?" Oh, really? I'd like to see THAT list! 
You've done a fine job showing us your 'particulars' so early in the game. The kids would call that a colossal FAIL, I suppose. |

I would imagine that the normal urge to defecate is also wholly natural-- yet I imagine that most adults (regardless of sex) are able to better discipline themselves, and maintain appropriate decorum within the confines of social mores. "Lots of good, solid food is hard to resist. Mix that will and little alcohol and... well... you can guess the rest"
Unless of course, one simply holds fast to an ethical consistency and maintains that a member of secret service can and should be excused from taking a dump whenever and wherever they so choose, attributing that to, and then rationalizing it by the simplistic bumper-sticker of "boys will be boys..." |

...a co-worker of mine had rather bad afternoon. He found out that one of his in-laws, who thought he was selling guns to the IRA, was actually selling them to the FBI. He was told this by the Defense Investigative Service (now the Defense Security Service) who stopped by to pull his clearance.
So I wonder if the Yankee White process will change as a result of this.  |

There are 3 levels of classified information, Confidential, Secret and Top Secret. All CI is "need to know". Special access to comsec, crypto, SCI... are granted based on project assignment.

I can't really comment on DoE clearances, I've never had one and I'm not familiar. I'm told in total there are sixteen intelligence gathering agencies and several departments granting clearances. It's been a long time for me. I'm sure things have changed a bit.
Have a good day. |

Love the way you presume to speak for people you don't even know, to the point of predicting their conduct, in the hopes of goading and baiting posters on this message board. Your pattern, though, is far too obvious, you're a veritable bull in a china shop.
Enjoy your PPR, I have no doubt we'll be seeing more of your calcetines in the months ahead--because you lack something most people have, apparently--and that would be a LIFE. Poor, poor you.  |

But I read on the google that Hugo had cut off relationships with Columbia a while back, but in the weeks preceeding the SS inckident, had a summit with Lumbo looking to better relationships or something. What better way to kiss his ass than to slap the U.S. in the face with an embarrasment. Take it with a grain of salt, I do enjoy playing armchair spy.
