Petraeus

It seems there was a roumor General Petraeus was going to resign. Did not happen. Freepers, however, reacted to this juicy gossip with rampant speculation and rage:

hinckley buzzard thinks Obama owes the Taliban. Probably for electing him, somehow:

Obama needs to install a sellout to pay off his debts to the Taliban.

wintertime will not vote for any General that has not instituted a military coup:

There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that I would vote for a man that let LTC Lakin and Major Cook swing slowly in the wind.

There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that I would vote for a man that allowed his troops to serve under a likely usurper posing as president and Commander in Chief.

While General Patraeus might be willing to fall on a grenade for his troops against a foreign enemy on foreign soil, I **seriously** doubt that he would defend the Constitution against a **domestic** enemy.

I have no idea what hosepipe is saying, but it is worse than that "Betray Us" ad that enraged Freeper types back in the day.

Ugh Oh!... He may be in Kansas again.. The Wizard of OZ.. may have been exposed as the slimy traitor he is..
..

Gondring keeps hope alive:

Possibly helping the Hillary Clinton campaign?

SeekAndFind is reliving World War 2. Again!

Petraeus, more than anyone else, has been identified with the intensified military campaign in Afghanistan which, according to critics of the policy, has reduced prospects of a political settlement by alienating Taliban leaders who might otherwise be coaxed into peace talks.

This tells me than Petraeus is a WARRIOR more than a politician. His main task is to crush the enemy until they are rendered helpless, but the administration would not allow him to finish his job.

Reminds me a lot of George Patton.

chooseascreennamepat is also hopeful.

The only way he can spill the beans about 0 is to resign from the service.
