Not much to say to that other than, that little wordplay on his name sums it all up. It IS indeed a betrayal.

He said exactly what was expected of him like a good general. They need MORE TIME? How many years has it been now???

The General needs to be a General, and not a politician. He needs to do his job Instead of the jobs of the politicians.

James, I think you've pinpointed a big problem that the General has. But isn't he caught in a situation where he has very little choice? He's supposed to be taking orders from his Commander-in-Chief (Bush), and if he gets too critical, he'll just be axed, won't he?

That's true agate, but that's the problem through out the Military. Once these officers get to the rank of Major or COL. they start on politics and try to get on the good side of who ever Is In office. If they would do their job the way they are supposed to, maybe a lot of our Military personel could possibly still be living and possibly a lot would not have gotten hurt or exposed to Uranium.

I was noticing those four stars on his shoulders. There's definitely room there for a fifth star. Maybe he wants to be one of those 5-star generals.

It seems General Petraeus is being promoted to Chief of US Central Command and will be in charge of US forces in East Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia:

Howdy, gang. And that (General Betrayus' philosophy oughta be welcomed by John McCain who wants to continue this carnage for 100 years !)

Peace.

If McCain gets elected I'm going to be very disappointed.

Don't worry, ewizabeth, McCain ain't got a prayer. President Obama will bring home all those folks from Iraq that should never been there anyway.
