If anyone’s deserving of a promotion, it’s General David Petraeus.
Army Gen. David Petraeus has been asked to take over the U.S. military’s Central Command, which oversees combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to the Associated Press.
…
Army Lt. Gen. Ray Odierno is expected to take command of coalition forces in Iraq, according to CNN and AP.
CNN has streaming live coverage (so does Fox News) of the press conference, and of course it’s on teevee right now.
More at Hot Air for the moment. Abu Muqawama says the real story, buried by CNN, is that LTG Odierno is headed back to Iraq to replace Petraeus. I’ll be waiting for insider commentary in the comments there, and at the Small Wars Journal and Blackfive.
Maybe. (Warning: it’ll make your blood boil.)
Uncle Jimbo and Drew M (at Ace’s) give this pathetic douchebag the beatdown which he so desperately deserves. For example, Uncle Jimbo:
Do the planet a favor Mr. DeBord and STFU about real men. Your attempt to portray Gen. Petraeus as a chickenhawk is the weakest of all arguments especially coming from someone who could only charitably be called even a girly man. Go back to your fern-filled loft and compare notes on the latest swill turned out by the grape-stompers. You need to leave the important business of who shall lead our country in war to those whose concept of it has progressed farther than fashion commentary about a man whose glass you are not fit to fill.
If that drooling idiot were on fire, I wouldn’t spit on him to put it out. He is a world-class asshat, to put it mildly. Thoroughly beclowned.
BTW, here’s his Amazon review of his own book (he graciously gave himself five stars, of course). Jerk. Feel free to make a contribution to the discussion. ;)
