He’s a Bilderberger... right after his “retirement” Big seminar at their meeting.

Bigger agendas than US sovereignty. The new world Army of blue helmets and investment bankers.

If you have not read it... read “In the Garden of the Beasts”
by Nick Larson. It is riveting.. the inside story of Hitler’s circle in their earlier days of taking power.
Good analogy to obamaumao... the intelligentsia’s “black” put up jobber.

Story of FDR’s first ambassador to Germany in 1934. Appalling who was running Germany, and yes this is quite similar. The only thing missing domestically is the brownshirts, arguably possibly the dhs seizing people arms... and even video film makers who are Coptic Christians (the Benghazi “video” maker that caused the death of our ambassador— NOT).

I do recall the Air Force Command Chief Master Sergeant who gave me my briefing when I got my first security clearance - “MICE: money, ideology, compromise, ego.” Only question for the General is which one(s) now?

Ideology apparently was settled right after graduation from the Point...to himself be true.

Compromise and ego given up with the scandal and resultant blown leadership chances.

So.... it’s money obviously.

She was there on the jogging runs with him, and after... just like an easy chair. Wrong—headed thinking at a perfect pre-menopausal male age. Ego and fluff... puff.

I cannot trust this man on any subject.

I fear he is one of two things: under duress, or a liberal.

Hate to admit my backing of Bush if he backed this loser.

Ya think they’re all compromised? Seems to be a lot of agreement on that?


Yeah, I think so too...starting with Roberts and Bohner, etc.

Sorry Petraeus, you lost all your credibility when you tossed your honesty, integrity and ethics and went down like a cheap whore to cover for Mrs. Slick Willy and His Arrogance.

tired Army Gen. David H. Petraeus, former CIA director under President Barack Obama, called strongly Saturday for Congress to back the White House on Syria, declaring that military action against the regime is “necessary” to deter “Iran, North Korea and other would-be aggressors.

Dumbass. If you want to "deter" Iran, you screw with Iran. They don't care about what you do to proxies.

this guy was utterly hated at the Pentagon by all and known as a back stabbing snake.
his wife is a huge leftist and a Obama bundler.
she is a nasty piece of work and works for the Dems.
she hated Bush and fed the DC media dirt on the Bush admin.
my brother in law worked with the snake.

The need to send a message to Iran and the Norks requires us to bomb Syria! /s

Usually this would be considered to be an obvious non sequitur.

Aggressors against who? Syria hasn’t done anything to us.

I don’t know but I think Americans are pretty much done with war for a while and its especially true of wars that have no point.

Well said.

Why not do the following — support Assad, rescue the Christians and blast the hell out of the Al-Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood rebels?

What would you say to that, Patreason?
