Between you and Kipling, I have nothing more to add, except that this explains the term “an officer AND a gentleman.”

This is disgusting. The New York Times gave MoveOn.org a special discount for the General Betray Us ad.

Petreas Acts with Class.

Moveon.org and the Dhimmicrats are Class Acts.

Petraeus = Class

MoveOn = No Class.

Heh. That waterskiing squirrel has more credibility than hacks like Reid, Pelosi, Kennedy, and the rest of their vile ilk.

They’ve got a soul…?

Sure do. But just one. And each member of the party gets a little piece.

It’s like Marx’s metaphysical doggie bag!

Bravo general . . . you have millions of supporters in this country so don’t let the Moveon.Org dirtbags get you down.

Classy, poignant rebuttal from a stand-up gentleman.

Uh-oh. Does this mean the Dems will accuse him yet again of political partisanship? If so, he’s got to be the most highly decorated political hack in history.

Absolutely, a Class Act.

The Man can bear to hear his words twisted by Knaves (Dhimmi) to make a trap for Fools (D). As the poet (Kipling) said:

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings–nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,…..

I believe his is the Earth and everything that is in it,
And, which is more, he [has shown himself to] be a Man, my son.

Thank you, Gen Petraeus. And thank you, Mr. Kipling.

BadBrad, this retired Cpt. also hates moveon & code puke as well. My husband who just got on the promotion list for field grade feels the same. The General is the type of Officer we’d follow to Hell and Back. There have been only a few of these individuals who we’ve come across in our respective careers. He is one class act though, that’s for sure.
Bigfoot, our great cable-comcast only gives us CSPAN 1. I even called about the other two as we got them out in HI with our basic package. They informed me that even on the “deluxe” packages it wouldn’t be available at all.
When hubby was there last year and part of this year, he talked about working with the Iraqi National Police (which has one of the worst reputations) and how the guys on the street that he worked with, were for the most part respectful of everyone and helped them with their developing of a better relationship with the locals.
It was absolutely disgusting listening to these moonbat Congress people yacking at the General. He’s got more class in his fingernail then they have in their entire body. I do question their patriotism at moveon, code pinko and all the people on their payroll in the Congress.

You ever wonder what it would look like if this real man ever was allowed to say what he really thinks about the MoveOn, KOSkids, etc? Not a pretty picture, I’ll betcha.

More importantly, There are 3 C-Spans now?? Does one of them play music videos?

Yes, there are now 3 C-Spans. The newest, C-Span3, is mainly about history, most of it recent, of course.

Sorry, no music videos.

If anything, General Petraeus has TOO much honor.

I wish he had made a concluding statement after the second Senate hearing, stating for all to hear how disappointed he and his troops were over the defeatist attitude of some members of Congress (read: Democrats), and how offended America’s servicemen were over the visits to hostile nations by people like Dennis Kucinich and how TREASONABLE it is for them to speak ill of your country while in these hellholes.

I know he is not a politician, but he IS a patriot. It would have been a healthy gesture if he properly labeled the surrender lobby for what it is.

Mustafa Hemmroid on September 12, 2007 at 1:40 PM

It was as part of a statement somewhat (but less reasonable and measured)like that where I first saw the “Betrayus” shtick used….sadly, in the comments at Blackfive by someone that objected to the letter he released to the troops urging them to build a better relationship with the locals and remember that they represent the best, most honorable Military in the history of the world.

Damn straight. MoveOn are the worst of Americans. GEN Petraeus is one of the best.

ReubenJCogburn on September 12, 2007 at 2:21 PM

These pinkos just wish they could have a man like Petraeus on their side. They have to settle for Rosie – their version of a man.

P.S. Most Officers/Soldiers I know hate Moveon/Code Pink. From the bottom of my heart… F%$k You Moveon.org

BadBrad on September 12, 2007 at 2:36 PM

Brad, thanks for your service. I was in the Marines at the tail end of Vietnam, and these people in moveon remind me so much of the dirty hippies that would meet us at the airports coming back from SE Asia. They disgusted me then, and they still do.

The clowns at moveon aren’t Americans – they simply live here. In thier heart of hearts they live in Cuba, or Venezuela.

Communist traitors, all of them.

smart*ss friends in grade school all invented that name on their own and thought they were sooooo clever.

As I recall, in 2003 his soldiers used to say that about him when he made them do things that they didn’t like (Like, imagine that, when he wanted them to be nicer and more respectful of the Iraqi people in Mosul). Turns out, again… who would have guessed, that GEN Petraeus actually knew what he was talking about. He still does… no matter what the little minds of Moveon.org say… a full page add doesn’t make it so.

Brad,
CPT U.S. Army
