They do seem to be a bit slow to learn. May it last into November of 2014.

<i>Has national security be breached?</i>

Oddly enough, "National Security" was Petraeus' nickname for Broadwell's vagina.

Actually, Petraeus's reaction is the only thing I can respect him for in this whole mess.

Yes yes, leadership is <i>What We Need. </i>There are several floors of Infantry Hall at Fort Benning devoted to teaching it to baby Army officers. Mitt Romney asserted that the mere fact of his leadership would turn the economy around. Paul Ryan was an "intellectual leader" of that collocation of great minds known as the house Republican caucus. Obama exhibited "failed leadership," because he failed to execute Phase II of the transition to Sharia Law.

And what have the voters chosen? It is puzzling.

Plus: Jesse Helms. Ews.

Competent, practical, and academic? She's already disqualified from being a GOP congresscritter, regardless of her positions on the issues.

Indeed. One thing missing from most accounts is any mention of how devoted Petraeus was to the "spiritual fitness" of his troops, as detailed by <a href="http:\/\/freethoughtblogs.com\/rodda\/2012\/11\/13\/hey-general-petraeus-hows-that-spiritual-fitness-stuff-working-for-you\/" target="_blank">Chris Rodda</a>.

Standard GOP view: adultery should only violate a marriage between a man and a woman.
