Out of curiousity, General Pershing...would you vote for Petreaus if he turns out to be a Democrat???
There’s banter back oand forth on this thread that Gen’l Petreaus is a RINO, or a Dem, or voted for Obama, or whatever. Personally, that’s the first I’ve heard of any of that.
It poses a problem for me voting for him, for sure, if this is true. While I applaud his military service to the country and hold him in pretty high regard, the Dems policy positions are, to say the least, NOT in the best American interests... So if true, what does that say about his judgement in aligning himself with the Party that’s doing eveything possible to wreck the country and turn us into a socialist sh*thole?? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to read the communist party platform and compare it to the democrat platform and do a quick comparison...and come up seeing them both pointing in the same direction...
Anybody else care to comment? It would seem to be an important point to consider if he does run.
And for the record, I’m not calling him a “traitor” or anything like that - I don’t know the man, I don’t know his heart, and all I know of him is as a good general officer that cares about his troops, doing his duty as he sees fit, for a clueless, seditious “commander” in chief who hates the country.
My understanding is that he is a Republican. I wouldn’t be so committed to support him as a Democrat. But, of course, what sane military man would be a Democrat. Makes me think of Wesley Clark—a complete dud.
I think we need a military man, in the Eisenhower strain, to cut through the foolishness on the right and the left. He needs to chart a long-term strategy, the way Eisenhower did in the early days of the Cold War, to strenghten the US economically and militarily.
