Iraq inquisition

Days before the scheduled appearance of Gen. Petraeus in Congress his testimony was already being attacked. Comments that were being made by some members of Congress bordered on what I consider to be treasonous. General Petraeus was being portrayed as little more than a mouthpiece for the White House. We were being told that the statistics and data contained in the report was flawed even before the General had even opened his mouth.At what point does the goal of a political party take precedence over the good of our country? In other words, the democrats are willing to do nearly anything, including surrendering to our enemies, to discredit the current administration and regain political power and control of the White House and Congress. Despite the all indications to the contrary, democrats only seem interested in claiming defeat and surrendering to an enemy who is more than eager to step and take our place upon our departure from Iraq. In short, to our esteemed democratic members of Congress, success simply can not be tolerated in any way.  Because of this everything that Gen. Petraeus says must be discredited including personal attacks upon the general. Therefore, even reporting before Congress is nothing more than an exercise in futility. Obviously our esteemed leaders in Congress despite being insulated and isolated from reality, know more about Iraq than the commanding general and troops who are actually involved in the daily fighting. The rhetoric and comments  that are being made absolutely infuriate me and in my opinion are all but treasonous. Behavior that undermines the government not to mention the absolute disloyalty is just intolerable.  The behavior and comments that are being made by some of the people is contemptible. There is no lack of sound bytes available to demonstrate unbelievable lack of decency and vulgar behaviour which is so rampant in the media right now. It is a sad state of affairs that the very leaders of our country have so little regard for our brave men and women in uniform who are fighting for our freedoms.
