Oops -USS Enterprise Video Scandal: Navy Commander Revealed As Mastermind Behind Raunchy Videos
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/01/uss-enterprise-video-scandal_n_803263.html
<snip>


Owen Honors, Captain of the Norfolk-based USS Enterprise, was revealed as the producer of a series of "raunchy" videos made aboard the Navy carrier several years ago in a report released by the Virginian-Pilot on Saturday.

Filmed in 2006 and 2007 when Honors was the Enterprises's executive officer, the clips were reportedly shown to 6,000 sailors and U.S. Marines on the ship as part of what was called "XO Movie Night."

The Pilot reports:

In one scene, two female Navy sailors stand in a shower stall aboard the aircraft carrier, pretending to wash each other. They joke about how they should get six minutes under the water instead of the mandated three.

In other skits, sailors parade in drag, use anti-gay slurs, and simulate masturbation and a rectal exam. Another scene implies that an officer is having sex in his stateroom with a donkey.

3. I'm betting his resignation will be delivered before the week
is finished. He was one of Bush's boys. Ah well!

4. He was one of "Bush's boys"?
How's that? You think Bush himself installed officers? If he was an O-6 in 2006, he probably joined the military in the late 70s or early 80s. In any case, officers go through a commissioning process. They aren't hand-picked by any individual President.

7. Don't know but he's a goner
He sure lacks judgement. Polls don't matter Tamron or the reach wouldn't be getting tax breaks and the US would have withdrawn from Afghanistan.
