I've never been in the military, but my understanding is that if your Commander-in-Chief calls you General instead of Admiral, the correct response is "Yes Sir".

I hate it how Bammerz keeps giving the rightwingnuts so much ammunition. Misnaming a high-ranking military officer, having only girls for children, breathing. Fuck, he might as well just concede right now.

Slightly OT, but our <a href="http:\/\/www.roanoke.com\/news\/roanoke\/wb\/313268\/" target="_blank">local paper</a> covered the Crumb and Get It thing (again!) and subsequent Fox appearance, with a lovely quote from McMurray about the 2009 bankruptcy:

<i>He said he didn't appreciate its inclusion in news coverage. "It has nothing to do with the story. We are normal people with normal lives," he said.</i>

A second story features this pithy quote about McMurray from a business professor at UVa: "Check back with him in two months and see what he says," Wilcox said.

Yes, but is he a full Admiral, Vice Admiral, or Rear Admiral? And if he's a rear admiral, is that a rear admiral upper half (two stars) or lower half (one star)? If Fox doesn't know the answer, they're disrespecting the troops.

The Air Force has Generals as well. Why does Fox hate the Air Force?
