Why Not Send a Memo?

Interesting headline: "Surge a failure, Democrats tell general"... during his testimony to them.

If only you'd stop telling us about your successes and run away with no strategy like you're supposed to, it would become what we say it is!

Did I miss something or aren't the Petraeus hearings (and all hearings for that matter) supposed to be about asking questions, learning and deliberating on new information brought back by the highly qualified and duly appointed firsthand source close to the action. Well, in an ideal world maybe. But Petraeus, having been the Dems' man from the beginning, has roused their righteous indignation and anger by sticking to the facts. They think he's evil and must be stopped. I think I've heard this tune before.

I'm just waiting for another headline: "Strategy of Running Away and Giving Islamofascists Free Rein to Pursue Genocide a Failure, Voters Tell Dems". Ah that it were so. Of course if I were this unpopular, I'd be on the attack as well... better to create a smokescreen for... $850,000.
