The senior officer of a West Coast-based Coast Guard command was sacked Friday over allegations he had used a government computer to surf the Web for pornographic material and browse other "restricted" sites.

Captain Fredrick G. Myer was relieved as commander of the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Portland, Ore., and reassigned to the 13th Coast Guard District staff pending a final disciplinary ruling by Coast Guard Commandant Adm. Robert Papp, the service said in a July 12 release.

"The decision to relieve a commanding officer is never easy and is taken very seriously," said Rear Adm. Gary Blore, the commander of the Coast Guard's 13th District, which includes the Portland sector.

"We take the Service's core values of honor, respect and devotion to duty as guiding principles of our personal and professional conduct."

The Portland sector is based on Swan Island, Ore., and covers operations from the Salmon River in Idaho to the Oregon and Washington coasts.

2. Coast Guard Dude needs to employ the classique VRWM* Strategery

* VRWM = Vitter Republicon Weasel Maneuver, named after the santimonious Sen. David Vitter (R) who claimed that SATAN made him put on diapers and abuse his Sacred Marriage Vows by cavorting shamelessley with notorious hookers, but that Jesus had forgiven him. The VRWM earned him a Standing O from his so-called 'Family Values' Republicon Senatorial cronies.

Many other 'Family Values' Republicons have employed the VRWM Strategery to good effect. Could work for this dude as well. He is sure to gain vast republicon support if he goes for it.
