I didn't hear any Stanley Can nooze until late afternoon. Now all I hear is "Dave" Petraeus this . .
. . . . and "Dave" Petraeus that.

Dave?

He was always General Petraeus or David Petraeus.

Now, suddenly, he's "Dave" to all the media?

Dave?

Are we softening his image? What's up with the sudden familiarity and with "Dave"?

I heard this on noozradio, on the radionooz on a nonnooze station, and just now, on my teevee. Each a different nooz organization. Each calling him Dave?

Nuh uh .... that's no coincidence. I have no clue what it means, but it means something.

1. Remember what Admiral William Fallon called the new media darling
"an ass kissing little chicken shit" says about all that needs to be said about "Dave". Coming from a Navy man, and like my dad who was a WWII Navy vet that sums him up pretty damn straight.

2. Dive into Dave, who ain't a dove.
But better not be a diva, like Stanley.

3. The media is buttering him up to run against Obama in 2012 since their constant
promotion of "War Hero" McCain petered out.
