All you really need to know about VP candidate designate/select Brigadier LT GEN Tim “A-hole” AWOLz.
Eh, natzofast there, John. Actually, as I understand it, it was NOT his “right” to “retire early.” His contractual service commitment was not due to expire until 2007, but when word came down in late 2005 that his cannon-cocker unit would soon be deploying to Iraq, he summarily dropped out—after shitting himself in sheer terror, of course. After cleaning his drawers he decided to become a professional D卐M☭CRAT politician, which requires one to lie continuously, about anything and everything, which Gov AWOLz clearly has no problem with. At the same time he summarily decided, on his own (nonexistent) authority, that his fledgling career as a scum-sucking ProPol would be helped along enormously if he retained his brevet rank as Command Master Chief First Top Bird Colonel DELTA Force Power Ranger Sergeant of the US Army indefinitely, even though he was neither empowered nor entitled to do so.
So he did. And the rest, as they say, is history. Y’know, like America That Was, umm, is.
Tim “A-hole” AWOLz as Vice President? Sure, why the hell not. After all, it’s not as if we haven’t already thoroughly disgraced ourselves before a watching world anyway, now is it? In the famous words of America’s First Female “President,” what difference, at this point, does it make?

If you have more than 20 good years in the Guard you can break your enlistment contract at any time. The Sargent Major training was a different contract that he was delinquent on. Every state can add requirements. I retired 20 years ago where E-9 required an AA degree is any area where you had to have the degree to be considered for the job. Things have changed. It requires specific coursework and you can do the classes after being promoted in his state. It also takes considerable timing and political maneuvering to get into an E-9 slot. I did not have enough time in grade to be eligible for the E-9 slot. I had just over 20 years in service and the guy that got the slot stayed in it for over 10 years. Timing was not right for me. I retired with 21 years and multiple deployments. I qualify to be in the VFW and I am. I do not qualify for VA benefits.
