Liberal MoveOn.org calls General Petraeus a Traitor!
Pete Hegseth reports at The Weekly Standard on one of the lowest democratic publicity tricks in recent times.
It gives you a clear picture of today's defeatist party- don't miss it:
MoveOn.org Calls Petraeus a TraitorIt is funny that just a few months ago this same bunch approved General Petraeus 81-0 in the US Senate.
Tomorrow--as General David Petraeus provides his Iraq assessment to Congress--the antiwar group MoveOn.org is running a full-page advertisement in the New York Times under the headline: "General Petraeus or General Betray us? Cooking the books for the White House."
Let's be clear: MoveOn.org is suggesting that General Petraeus has 'betrayed' his country. This is disgusting. To attack as a traitor an American general commanding forces in war because his 'on the ground' experience does not align with MoveOn.org's political objectives is utterly shameful. It shows contempt for America's military leadership, as well as for the troops who have confidence in him, as our fellow soldiers in Iraq certainly do.
General Petraeus has served this country for over 35 years with honor, distinction, and integrity. And this is not just about General Petraeus. After all, if General Petraeus is "cooking the books," then the entire military chain of command in Baghdad, and all the staff, military and civilian, who have been working with General Petraeus are complicit, since Petraeus did not write his report in isolation. They are all, apparently, 'betray[ing] us.'
MoveOn.org has been working closely with the Democratic congressional leadership --as an article in today's Sunday New York Times Magazine makes clear. And consider this comment by a Democratic senator from Friday's Politico: "'No one wants to call [Petraeus] a liar on national TV,' noted one Democratic senator, who spoke on the condition on anonymity. 'The expectation is that the outside groups will do this for us.'
Today's Democratic Oath: Defeat at all costs!
Byron York wonders if democrats will surrender to MoveOn.org, too.
More... George Soros sleaze at The Examiner.
(This post was updated and bumped.)
Still More... Congressman Jeb Hensarling responds to the despicable attack by the democratic MoveOn.org group against General Patraeus.
Update: Michelle Malkin is reporting that the GOP is calling on Dems to disavow the haters!
Will they?...
HotAir is tracking the Congressional hearings today in DC.
Update 2: FOX News is reporting on the disgraceful democratic ad.
Update 3: Powerline says MoveOn hits bottom.
Either the Left condemns this or supports this. We all know what they will not do.
ReplyDeleteAs we plunge deeper into a Owellian reality..truth is a lie, fiction is fact and traitors call a patriot a traitor. Today's sorry state of intellect is the result of 40 years of liberal control of education and information with no resolution in sight.

Petraeus Doesn’t Cook the Books
Just the facts.
By Michael O'Hanlon
excerpts:
[For those reading this after watching General David Petraeus’s Monday testimony, I strongly suspect that my main argument will have become apparent to many: General Petraeus is a straight shooter who does not and will not cook the books.]
[On the violence, in keeping with a Saturday New York Times article by Michael Gordon that reflects current DoD data on the country, Petraeus will argue that the overall situation has improved substantially this year. He will be right to do so, based on virtually any primary - source data I have seen (in my capacity as co - author of Brookings’s “Iraq Index”). Depending on which category of violence one emphasizes, and which starting and end points one uses for the comparison, most categories of killings are down 20 to 50-percent since the surge began. This is true for overall civilian fatalities from all causes, including victims of extrajudicial killings (basically reprisal assassinations), murders, and for the most part, car - and truck-bombing victims.]

This is just another fine example of how Liberalism is a mental disorder.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of traitors....John "the genius" Kerry, on Sunday said in response to osama bin laden's dope slap to the democrat leadership that it wasn't a failure by the democrat party to fulfill osama's hopes for the new congressional majority. It was the fault of those wascally Republicans and President Bush! It wasn't the democrats' fault! They tried really, really hard to do the bidding of the terrorists! Please, osama, don't be angry with the democrats! They're still on your side! Surrender is still their goal! It is, it is! You anti-American lefties must be soooo proud....sheesh.
