General "Betray us"

That's right, you heard it a month ago, a play on the name of General David Petraeus. The attacks keep coming from the hateful liberals. Here is a United States General, who was appointed unanimously to the position he now holds of leading the troops in Iraq getting slammed in a discounted full page advertisement in the New York Times written by no other than the website that owns the Democratic Party, Moveon.org.

At the time he was appointed, nobody thought he was anything but the right choice for the job, so why now are the very people that were responsible for appointing him, calling him a liar? If he was a liar and a manipulator, I don't think he'd be holding that position. And if the liberals really do think think this way, then they should be thrown in jail for knowingly appointing a liar, right?

I find it hard to believe that a four star general is a liar and siding with Republicans (Bush in particular) when he wrote that report. The military is apolitical in general, and cares about nothing besides accomplishing the mission. Yes, each individual has their own thoughts and views, but when it boils down to it, they do what is ordered of them without question. So why do the liberals think that General Petraeus is taking sides? I can find nothing that leads me to believe that he is anything but a honorable, intelligent, well educated (can you say Ph.d), selfless hero.

After listening to the Democrats rip this guy apart, I felt angered and bewildered at the same time. I knew it was going to happen based on the left dismissing his report weeks before he even released copies for everyone to read, but couldn't understand why they were so harsh in the process. Petraeus knew it was going to be so bad, he had to give a disclaimer before he addressed Congress, informing them that his report was approved by no one and were his words only. I fully believe that he in no way, shape or form, was told what to write in his report and definitely didn't write it to please the President. Ultimately it probably did, but only because what he reported was true.

What really irritates me, is that no one is calling out the Democrats for their ignorant, despicable behavior. This would have been a great opportunity for the Republicans to show America that the filth resides in the Democrats. I couldn't even finish listening to Patreaus talk because every time a sicko Democrat would speak, I wanted to throw up.

They've hardly called them out for ignorant, despicable behavior for the last 30 years, why should it change now? The mainstream media is the PR wing of the Democrat party; if someone were calling Dems out (and I assure you, people were), the MSM just wouldn't choose to cover it. That's why alternative outlets like talk radio and FNC so readily found purchase.

When over 250 of John Kerry's shipmates came forward to call him out, the media first studiously ignored them, and then attacked them when they no longer could. Had 250+ of Bush's fellow airmen come forward to declare that he was in fact AWOL, they would have found no such resistance. That's why I'm so fond of this shirt.

You are absolutely right, the MSM wouldn't cover it even if they did backlash against them. But even if one person saw the Democrats for what they actually were, then it would be worth it.
