2. Finding praise for the general, what a contrast...

Did Weiner even do anything besides send pictures of his dick to willing recipients? I forget: seriously. Who cares about sex affairs? They have nothing to do with legislation or policy. It's ridiculous that the government of 300 million people is so often held hostage to the genital urges of particular individuals.

In this case, a major war criminal of the invasion and occupation of Iraq is a great fucking hero and in charge of the covert war and covert policy machine, until the day it's found out he made some love on the side with his biographer!

Every value here is completely skewed. But the present point being, no words of even indirect praise would be found for any non-Republican non-General in the same situation. By politicians of either party. Oooh! "He did the right thing!" Gimme a fucking break.
