But not just *any* of their networks, a *classified* network.

I think I'm more offended than in hysterics.  A) they've proven they're 
not up to the job on their "critical assets" network - let alone their 
garden variety networks.  B) uhmmm.. right.  US Military having control 
over private networks.  Pretty sure something in the Constitution says 
that's against the rules.

That takes some titanium cajones.  I'd like to see Herr Lynn's letter of 
resignation over this one.
