He parroted Obamas line about the video protests getting out of hand. He ONLY spoke up when the story fell flat and it was revaealed that CIA was told to stand dowm.
He knows the truth, but only gives little hints now. He could tell the whole rotten story, but he still protects Obama. He’s corrupt or a coward.
Our government lies to us as often and enthusiastically as any totalitarian enemy we scream about. Guys like Petraeus are right in the thick of it. And leaving grunts behind a machine gun with no fire support is nothing new to Petraeus, he used the same rules in Afghanistan. Men have died there many times, screaming for arty or air only to have it denied because the enemy was in a building.
This is the most evil thing you can do, is refuse fire support to someone in a firefight.
Where’s that old Norman Rockwell poster. The man manning a machine gun. “Lets give him enough,,,and on time”.
The only report of Patraeus saying that comes form a Democrat party hack, who says that he said it in a closed House of Representatives briefing. We have Senators saying he never said it in their Senate briefing.
Patraeus cannot defend himself on this because he is not allowed to reveal what was said in the briefing's.
I strongly suspect that the Democrat representative is the one doing the lying to assist in the coverup.
If I am wrong, please correct me, but that is the only way that I have heard this.
