More "Attention Deflection Syndrome"

Andy McCarthy at The Corner passes along a sharp comment from a reader in the military:

Far be it from me to deflect attention from a non-scandal to a real one, but if somebody in my branch of the federal government were sent on a mission and reported back that he'd spent his time in Nigeria "sitting by the pool, drinking sweat tea," he'd be under vestigation for dereliction of duty and his expense account would have been gone over with a fine-toothed comb. If it had later turned out that this officer had been sent on this taxpayer-funded vacation by his wife, who had clearly abused her authority in this matter, they'd both be looking at an investigation under AR 15-6 and another taxpayer-financed retreat, this time at FT Leavenworth.

Of course he's right, but don't hold your breath waiting for the outrage.
