Dishonorable Discharge
I don't trust anyone with a stupid berries-and-cream haircut anyway, but Petraeus' hacky little dog-and-pony show should be seen for exactly what it is. If he wants to be the sock-puppet/fall guy for a failed preznit and a catastrophic policy, so be it. How many more people get to die so that the Serious Thinkers can try to save face?
