Petraeus Wore Fraud Medal At Testimony.

If that's the case, I'm surprised they're not encouraging him to run for POTUS as a democrat.

No specifics given - presumably because it’s a totally unfounded accusation fabricated out of whole cloth.

If true, lets hope he doesn’t take a gun to his head like Admiral JM Boorda did.

And here I thought it was they crying we shouldn’t ever question medals? I guess that only applies to John Fraud sKerry.

I could probably comment on this if they would identify the Medal they are referring to. Without any specifics you have to assume it’s just a “hoping something will stick” charge. I also doubt that anyone in this group could identify any medal if they are displayed.

Right. General Petraeus didn’t have enough medals, so he picked one up at a pawn shop to beef up the array.Thank goodness for an observant leftie.

Some of the guys I drill with were wondering about his CAB (Combat Action Badge) as combat badges are not generally awarded to General officers. I am not really certain as to what the regulation is about awarding the CAB though, but perhaps this is what the Kossacks are refering to.

gives new meaning to the words sanctimonious calumniator.

(one wonders if the big brave reporter would go running to his mommy if the general smacked him across the face with a giant glove.) imho

If General Petraeus had received three Purple Hearts for splinters and bruises, that would have been OK with the Kosmonuts.

Remember the last time they blamed a 4 star with “fake” medals. It was not good. The media basically killed a guy and got away with it. I guess they are trying it again.

>> I will be extremely surprised if there is anything to these charges

As will I.

If the charges are false, then the statement is slanderous.

Of course, General Petreus has way too much class to pursue the matter — as well as more important things to do.

Rock on, General. Most of US is solidly behind you and your troops and your mission; I don’t care what the MSM and the Donks say.

Still trying to figure out what "kos" stands for, or is mutilated to mean. kos as in "cause", the daily cause? or as in chaos, daily chaos? Or an acronym? kos ='s kids on sedatives? kooks obliterating sensibility?

Sorry, I just don't get it..But that is not surprising given teh lefts penchant to twist everything ("Planed Parenthood", Affirmative Action, "Progeressive", etc..)
