[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]She was ROTC at Harvard. The Army has invested 4 years of Harvard education/ROTC training into her - you better believe they had a spot ready for her when she graduated.

So she got an educational deferment for law school - not highly unusual. But an additional deferment for a clerkship is unusual. And then ANOTHER deferment for a Supreme Court clerkship - I'm pretty confident that has never happened before. What use does the Army JAG Corps have for a former Supreme Court clerk?

Bet she has a good time processing insurance claims and filling out wills and POAs for deployments.  [/quote]

Do you know anything about military JAG?  Who do you think prosecutes and defends soldiers when they are tried?  Who do you think sits on the military bench?  Oh, sure, someone high profile like Bergdahl or Hassan may hire a private attorney, but most are handled in house.
Sure, there are JAG officers involved in wills and POAs which are pretty much forms prepared by paralegals,  but that is minimal compared to most of the other duties. Who do you think handles sexual assault cases?  Regular assault cases?  AWOL? Desertion? Theft? etc.  Oh, and there are also housing discrimination cases, and all types of legal issues.

There will be plenty of time for her to serve.  She may have already, in fact.

I love it when people who know nothing try educate those who do know what they're talking about. DH was an ROTC JAG and I was a civilian attorney working on post, but I'll defer to your superior knowledge.  :lol:

DH thinks Tiger Mommy might have or will pay off Tiger Baby's commitment, but I think she'll eventually serve because she probably has political ambitions and military service seems to be a good addition to the political resume. And just think what kind of book Amy could write about that![/quote]

Sounds like the PP knew what they were talking about.  Perhaps you’re just insecure?[/quote]

You are about as qualified as a Supreme Court clerk to try a sexual assault case. You think they throw a brand-new JAG into a major felony trial? New JAGs will start in legal assistance, etc. You want someone who's spent [b]2 years being chased around the desk by Brett Kavanaugh[/b] defending your court-martial?

The ultimate point is that Tiger Mom's kid is getting special treatment. The question is why.[/quote]

Seriously?  What a grossly inappropriate remark.  Why am I not surprised.  Kavanaugh has never done any such thing, so keep your fevered imagination to yourself.[/quote]

+1.

PP is sick[/quote]

You are not Kavanaugh.  You don’t know what he’s done in his life.  Your blind defense of a man with admitted drinking problems and accusations of sexual assault from credible females just makes you sound dimwitted.[/quote]

Really?  Because last I checked, the only person who accused him of anything, waited to do so 35 years after the alleged incident occurred, and had no one who could back up her claim.  Remember Swetnik?  Fraud.  She backtracked her entire story when called on it.  I can't even believe you would include her in your "credible females" remark.

Do you remember the hundreds of women who came forward [b]in support [/b]of Kavanaugh?  Women who had grown up with him, worked with him, known him for years... not one accusation of impropriety.  So yes, although I don't know him personally, I will continue to defend him as I would anyone in his position.  The only people who are actually dimwitted are those who jump at the chance to take down someone they disagree with politically, with no actual evidence of wrongdoing.  Innocent until proven guilty - does that mean anything to you?[/quote]
