After Reading the Whistle-blower Complaint

Basically nine pages.....highly organized, and in a manner of a PhD thesis (something I found odd).  To write in this manner?  Well, something like this would have taken a minimum of forty hours, with proof-reading required. 

So, three basic observations:

1.  Almost all (I'd say near 98-percent) is second-hand information.  He heard it from so-and-so.  He heard this from another so-and-so.  So to me, as the IG over this....I'd just be shaking my head.  It's basically worthless, unless you forced each single first-hand individual to come in and give testimony.  The IG won't go to that extent unless there was something of value stolen or someone threatened. 

2.  The guy writes this a great deal.....'these events happened, but I don't know why'.  Again, that takes away any value to the complaint itself.  Maybe he should be President, and let others second-guess him?

3.  He has classification authority, which most mid-range or lower-ranking folks would not have.  But you have to ask the question.....the info that he took....he seemed to spend a lot of time on research.  I would be guessing over the period in question....he must have invested a minimum of eighty man-hours in writing and researching the entire 'event'.  So it begs the question....what exactly is this guy's full-time job?  I certainly (when working in the Pentagon) would never have had so much free time to do something like this. 

Value?  Well....it sounds politically biased, and I have to wonder if he's capable of working for the President.  Maybe he's one of those folks who should just get a job with Google, write code, or run a car-rental shop at the airport.
