Irony at it's best

Obama has appointed General David "Betrayus" to replace General McCrystal.

I haven't heard Odrama blame Bush for a successful "surge" yet. Or did I just miss it?

 

So now it appears that Obama has fired his own handpicked general and hired Bush's handpicked general.

A lot of democrats, including Obama, are feasting on crow, and eating their past words concerning General "Betrayus".

It's delightful.:laugh:

 

The very same.

I mean, Petraeus didn’t accomplish anything in Iraq, and actually added to the needless violence, according to now-President Barry Hussein; he’s a flat-out dishonest liar, according to now-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton; we actually lost the Iraq War during Petraeus’ leadership, according to Harry Reid; and he betrayed this country, according to the leftwing machine that largely got this administration elected. And now this same general is all of a sudden the go-to-guy for these very same Democrats? I mean, excuse me?

SNIP

Democrats never admit how terribly wrong and in fact shockingly immoral they were when they did everything they possibly could to undermine General Petraeus and the Iraq War. But that doesn’t mean they won’t cynically and hypocritically take credit for both Iraq and Petraeus now. That’s just the kind of weasels Democrats are.

David Petraeus was the general that Democrats and their leftist allies despised. Petraeus was Bush’s general. Petraeus was “the surge general.” And the fact that the same liberals who hated Petraeus are now cheering Obama’s selection of him makes me want to barf.
