Sargeant-Preston, you have not...
posted very often regarding GlobeTel/Sanswire so possibly you are not up to speed with their shameful method of abusing the english language by creating phrases which sound great but when analyzed mean very little.
You point out...
"He has remained an active member of the defense and intelligence communities, and is currently an active speaker and participant in both military and civilian forums."
Since you point to this classically deceptive GlobeTel/Sanswire phrase, please tell us "exactly" what the "defense and intelligence communities" are? You see this is how the company has always operated. They use a phrase like that which could mean he's at the Pentagon with the highest military leaders, or it could mean he's down at the VFW hall swapping stories with old buddies.
And what about the next part of this incredibly (could mean anything) statement... "active speaker and participant in both military and civilian forums." Please tell us what these "forums" are? Once again, is it speaking to the Chiefs of Staff, or is it a sixth grade class at the local elementary school?
No one has mastered the art of being vague enough to sound great and non specific enough to mean nothing. You should understand that "EVERY" time this company has ever done this... whether it was hyping an "His Excellency", or maybe an Astronaut or techno wizz kid, it always ended up the same...
they never lived up to their billing, they never helped this company succeed. "Every" time, the company just continued to fail, regardless how hard they pumped the latest paradigm shifting addition to the company.
Why don't you think they were more specific? It would have been very easy to mention a couple of the latest "forums" or tell us just who is meant by that "community".
Anyone who has seen the last five years of their press releases should know exactly why!
