I think also this may be ubambo’s chance to discredit the military higherarchy in America as inferior untrustworthy war mongering white men and replace them with his own people who will not have a problem interacting with the UN forces during martial law. If anyone thinks this to be crazy, did you ever think we would be at this place and time? The next 4 years will be busy
On this, Newt would go through DC like a crazy man with a meat cleaver.... and I would love every minute of it.
We have seen with Bill Clinton that impeachment just gets Democrats voting on party lines to defend their boy. How about a criminal prosecution? Take the Democratic politicians out of the jury here.
Hoping yer right!
We NEED a Col Jessup on the scene RIGHT f’n NOW!!!!!!
(blemishes and all)

Truly being a man of Values?? BetrayUs???
The more of FR I read, the more flabbergasted I get.
Truly being a man of values, the general realized the position he was in, came clean to his wife,
I think the basic premise is probably correct but this line kills me. Men of values don’t have to come clean to their wives about adultery, especially a 4 year affair.
In September, Petraeus was asked about the attack in Benghazi. Instead of answering directly, he said something to this effect: "Do you want my honest answer, or the canned response the administration is giving?"
When he was told to give the latter, he said it was a spontaneous attack motivated by the video.
This is how Petraeus said two completely different thing to Congress in September and this week, and wasn't lying either time.
they tape these things...
Don’t they take minutes of their meetings???
"""""Do you want my honest answer, or the canned response the administration is giving.......""""".....
I'm sure he was using as much sarcasm as he could muster when he said that.
....."""When he was told to give the latter, he said it was a spontaneous attack motivated by the video.""""".....
Someone wanted the latter? the adminstrations version? He gave it and they call him a liar???????
By working for this administration perhaps Petraeus has learned the wisdom of the old saying: “lay down with dogs expect to get up with fleas.”
“It is when a people forget God that tyrants forge their chains”
I have a different take and it has nothing to do with the values may or may not attribute to Petraeus.
The military pundits have said he is an honorable man and will do the right thing. Were they talking to him instead of about him? "Do the right thing and we will stand behind you."
The opinion of his peers in the military matters much more than the opinion of the Admin, Congress or the general public.
The media loves these conflicting variations of what happened when; says it’s all politics, and ignores the story.
What I really want to know from the Petraeus testimony is what was done, if anything, to rescue the four Americans that died in Benghazi ? The media cannot ignore the fact that men were purposely left to die if that is the case. I was amazed this was not mentioned by Rush today.
If it comes to light that the Marxist called off a rescue mission or just went to bed without acting, then that will damage and tarnish his presidency a hell a lot more than lying to the nation which his voters don’t seem to mind anyway.
I cannot believe that Petraeus was not asked about a rescue mission. We are entitled to know about that vital part of his testimony.
