If you’re going to call the woman a pejorative name you need to do the same for the guy.

You are perpetuating a double standard, blaming the woman but not the guy. The poker and the pokee are equally responsible.

Sorry, it will take an Act of Congress to do anything to a 4 star General. They are the law.

Huh?? Generals are just as subject to normal criminal law as anyone else, especially once they have retired. This was not a official duty.

BTW: Please don't read this as saying I agree he should be prosecuted, but I don't understand your statement. Can you please provide a link or explanation for what you meant?

He signed a deal with the devil and the Devil is collecting. He sent plenty to die under Obama’s asinine ROEs.

Then they/Liberals turned on him.

Hope they crucify the POS.

I heard of the ROE .. but to blame Petraeus is kind of backwards. You have to know that ROE rules were most likely set by Obama .. not Petraeus.

So, do his reports specifically state that HE (Petraeus) set the ROE (all by himself) ..??

If not .. then I can conclude you have given me MIS-information .. and I don’t appreciate it.

Did he or did he not in his capacity as General, send many many people to their deaths, paralysis and worse, under direct instruction of Obama and his ROEs?

Yes.

Were those ROEs a danger to those men that could have been avoided by simple things like being allowed bullets in their guns?

Yes.

Did he do it?

Yes.

Guilty.

Oh wow, applause, applause.

WAR IS HELL. When you’re in the military you follow orders; even when you don’t agree with them.

But, I see you’re more than willing to blame Petraeus .. and excuse Obama.

Okay, okay .. I got it. You are Obama’s lap dog.

Guess I don’t have to respond to anything you say anymore.

Misdirected loyalties to a man in uniform that lost his honor. Obama is surely the devil here, but Petraeus was by his actions and remains in his silence, one of Obama’s minions in this whole affair, and as Travis declares, there is much, much more that Petraeus is keeping under wraps...but why....
