    Not at all. You are laser focuses on military ranks, so I brought up the ranks of everyone who is in the race, including draft dodger Trump aka Captain Bone Spurs, and Corporal Vance. You seem to think their ranks are more impressive than Walz.

    As for cover-up, I'm not sure how it's a cover up, since the whole story has been public knowledge since the start. I informed you about it few days ago.

    And I commend your candidness, Pro. But, we sure as hell didn't hear a whisper about it from Kammy's campaign people until they were embarrassed to the point that they had to alter Walz' bio (as silently as possible).

    Nothing.

    But will be a counter voice of reason and reality. A break from the fantasy land MAGA and all their anger.

    And the need for MAGA types to have to put down everyone they disagree with.
    Just par for the course.

    I don't think it's much of a story to be honest. Trying to make a story out of something like that is borderline bickering

    Yes, his official rank, is Sergeant Major. He held the office of Command Sergeant Major but never completed the course work to achieve the official rank.

    24 yrs in the Army National Guard.

    According to a story I read.

    In this case, the proposed next vice-president (Tim Walz) would be one heartbeat away from becoming Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States of America. So, especially with that consideration in view, details about one's identity and conduct during more than 20 years of his prior military service IS important.

    The "story" is Tim Walz. He made the story, day by day, himself....

    ** Afterthought: she should have chosen Shapiro! **

    Well, here, let's deal with specifics: "Lt. Col. Augé, the Minnesota National Guard spokesperson, told CBS News that Walz retired as a master sergeant in 2005...." Link: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/tim-wa.... Augé, the,U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy.

    The 'Crats can sugarcoat the thing until it drips, but 'at the end of the day', Walz was a Master Sergeant, period! Nothing wrong with that, per se, but, sorry, Tim -- no 'laurel wreaths'....

    So? What's in dispute?
    He held the title of CSM, held the job, but retired before completing the course work to earn rank of E9.
    To run for political office.
