Good grief! Can these people not take the time to do just a tad bit of studying up before asking questions that make them look like morons? How do they get elected? It’s frightening.

I had a momentary flash of embarrassment for Nelson during his question. He looked totally lost and bewildered there for a moment, as if completely flummoxed by the General’s saying he needed to ask the Secretary of the Army for the information.

Nelson seems kind of dense.

He does not understand anything, troop drawndown was explained over and over and over.

Petraeus has been doing a lot of that lately. He deserves a Purple Heart when he’s done.

I have NO IDEA how these folks get elected...Nelson is asking the same things he asked this morning—no kidding!
This mental midget is on TWO national defense committees—how scary is that???

Did you happen to see that Freak show yesterday??? Those people were TOTALLY clueless. It was amazing to think that they were the committee members! What do they do up there in Congress? Watch reruns of "everybody loves raymond" all day?

The General was amazing, what little I was able to see. His assessment of the situation was spot on, and he should be listened to carefully.

Man, if I had to sit through that crap I’d have a straw handy and make spit balls and everytime a congressman uttered any slanderous statement, I’d shoot them while their big mouths were wide open - great target!

Amazing that the American people are not allowed to see this, and yet, will be polled by the same MSM who REFUSE to give them the information that they are polling on.

I’d buy ring side seat tickets to see the cracker go up with the General one on one. No gloves.

I wonder how long the General would allow the cracker to remain standing......
