Now, you understand why LWM and @ 2:33 Retired Military Patriot don't dare email Glenn?
The only way you could know that is... if you are the NSA megabrain computer!
You have been found out!
You are inscrootable.
Gary,
STFU.
That's Boylan on the left:

Glenn: this guy is a clown. Don't waste your time and effort dealing with this idiot. He is the quintessential army type that characterises BushCo: an insolent asshole.
GO. I just stopped in for a jug. Then, a quick slink skin over the scroll. conked out.
I'm in wacko sleep condition. The zappers are preparing to come with satchels, and belly button crawl, and roll over the jagged pointed Rusty Barbed Faustina wire.
Now, you understand why LWM and @ 2:33 Retired Military Patriot don't dare email Glenn? Ask Col. Stevie wonder Boylan. Garry Owen, salute Boylan, and say: Sir: Glenn NOT dinker-dinky-o like Gary Owen. NO GO.
GO now and cup that lit con-sigh stoker in your palms. No give Ole Oscar Grouch Pot-o a Perimeter Position away in green-zone Iraq.
You on obesity's juice? Remember the plump Lady Photo on a bottle of/ot that? Talk about a Col. or private then able to muster energy to Hack via bamboo, and all day, three, 2, 4, 2, swing a dupe' and a green GI machete. A path was made in the triple canopy jungle shade.
O, the monkeys went ape and chirped like General Petraeus at the White House Rose Garden ceremony. WOW- The bank played, "Here Comes The Creeps"...
O, that bottle of obesity's juice helped GO more cliques via elephant grass. GO no fall asleep on Guard Duty. Charlie NO slit throat while drinking obesitas, right, GO GI Gary Owen.
Damn leech hop off elephant grass and get stuck on the ankles, "jollies" and everywhere Elsa too. Sucked.
Only a squirt of 'bug juice' would get those 2,4, and 2 inch long leech worms off shatters ba**s. GO, cup the crap ya's got in the bowl. Stinks
You the GI in the green zone prep room who steal the white ivory bowl off by bloody body after I was shot. Ya's the troop who trimmed my toenails?
Owen- you dead meat, GI.
Ya's # ten, muy loco, tho.
If this is indeed an impostor who would either be hacking into extremely sensitive military computers or, in the lower-tech version, somehow present at Boylan's actual computer, then wouldn't this be a discovery with extremely serious repercussions? If there's a hacker who is having his way with military emails, what information could he have obtained? If it's somebody sneaking onto Boylan's computer, wouldn't that put some sort of saboteur (traitor? something more alarmist?) at Boylan's military base, in person? Shouldn't this be a situation that urgently needs to be cleared up?
Yes, the more I think of it, the more I think you ought to take up Boylan's offer and go to Iraq, Glenn.
I know you are cool, Glenn. You got the "ovos" man. Your partner has been bragging on you. But what about the good Colonel? Will he ever get outside the wire over there?
Set him up. Tell him you'll be glad to come over if he will accompany you on some recon patrols with my old unit, 3rd Brigade, 1st Cav (Garryowen). Get him out from behind the blast walls and have him show you the "real Iraq" from the belly of a Stryker vehicle traveling the IED-infested roads from Baghdad to Balad. I'm sure a real colonel would be delighted to show a journalist the "ground truth" wouldn't he?
Then we'll know for sure who has the real "Piedras."
talking about them is a lot more fun than talking to them.
one can't really tee off on some of the more despicable trolls?

...on what you mean by teeing off. I think I've been pretty well teeing off on them.
"the screwloose who wrote them."

Can't add anything to that. It's the classic, "Nuff said".
Is anybody else incredibly frustrated by the fact that, out of respect for GG, this bein' his place and all, one can't really tee off on some of the more despicable trolls?
I hope that Glenn never falls for that trap.

Besides, note what Robert Fisk said in his interview with Amy Goodman of Democracy Now. The link to it was posted on an early page in this thread. He said of Boylan, guys like him never really see Iraq. They have this itty-bitty-teeny window from the Greenzone to look out onto the struggling masses. Fisk, by the way, has spent years in the thick of 'the struggling masses' in Iraq.
I'd be glad to go to Iraq with a Salon press credential and file a few stories. Chow at the Officer's Mess ain't all that bad. I really do miss the sound of outgoing, and even the sound of incoming when it's not too close. They might even let me fire some .50 cal. That was my all-time favorite gun. But mostly, I just want to meet Christiane Amanpour and have a chat over a glass of wine while listening to the crump of mortar fire landing just outside the wire.
You don't know what you're missing, Glenn. Make the trip!
Chalabi "is an important part of the process," said Col. Steven Boylan, Petraeus' spokesman. "He has a lot of energy."

H/T to Atrios.
'Click here to arbitrarily boost the read counter'? Somehow I think your posting of these weird emails is no more mature that the screwloose who wrote them.
Boylan or his bosses would most likely arrange for a fragging or some other "unfortunate hostile enemy incident". I would trust those guys about as much as I would a black mamba crawling up my leg. I hope that Glenn never falls for that trap.
What a sensual mouth he's got. And a little Hitler mustache for added pleasure. Glenn, really! I think he wants you.
Here's a pic of the Col's Cousin Charlie.
