The Petraeus Show is nothing but a diversion

[Stinky The Clown]

We will learn nothing from it

McCain, Clinton and Obama will try to dazzle us.

Petraeus will thrust and parry.

Hands will wring and tongues will cluck.

Eggheads will call out some 'gotchas'.

Pros and Cons will find much to dislike.

The day will end without conclusion or change.

On to Iran.

Watching this shit is a monumental waste of time.

1. I wonder what Bush's viewer ratings are?

I'm willing to bet only those who make a living about what he had to say even watch.

2. Right.

Necessary info was in Senate Foreign Relations Committee hrgs last week.

4. Yup. Petraeus was simply trotted out by the bushies in all his military regalia to look dashing ....

.... and sound smart.

They're hoping for the celestial chorus to sing "If this guy says we need to stay, that's A-Okay by me!"

3. Astounding: monumental cowardice; monumental talent.

Iran here we come.

5. If they invade or bomb Iran

we should all march on DC and get the f..ker impeached. Prob will happen this month. Notice McShame keeps referring to Iran and the son of a bitch must have a deal with bush. The election will be rigged.

6. Protests don't work, sad to say ......

We had MILLIONS in the streets in the run up to the war. That went nowhere. Wasn't even reported upon.

8. Right, but NEXT/THIS TIME

it should/must be SOMETHING ELSE!

[elleng]

7. Cowardice by

whom?

9. I turned it off while Crocker was droning on and on. Useless to watch this garbage.
