Should General Petraeus be tried for treason?

[Saxwsylvania]

If Petraeus is a traitor, then it follows that he should be tried for treason.

Also, what would be the most appropriate punishment?  Would the death penalty be too harsh?  Perhaps life imprisonment?  If the death penalty, what form.  Lethal injection, gas chamber?  Your thoughts are appreciated.

he just should be recognized for what he is: a Bush hack hired to trumpet the Bush Iraq policy.  "only a pawn in their game..."

So why did the democrats back him so favorably if he was a Bush hack?

the Democratic establishment is a fascist organization.

[Reluctant Republican]

No, I think he's a well meaning man. I disagree with him, but until he's actively assisted our enemies, I say no.

[WalterMitty]

democrats are just disappointed that he told the truth...the surge is working.

obviously, their wish is that america lose the war.

No, their wish is that Bush loses the war.  They can't think beyond him.

hah, that's why Iraq has performed 'satisfactorily' on only 9 of 18 benchmarks.

the "best" hope is for a kleptocratic pro-US military dictatorship that costs us billions a year.

OK, so Bush says 9 out of 18 were met. That's still an F.

[Lief 🗽]

Yeah, but Bush likes to give himself a nice 15-point curve when it comes to grades.

That F? Merely a D! Yay, Democracy!

Don't generalize us.

That's exactly the type of things your hero dazzleman said.

The distinction is exactly like that between Hitler and Germany.

Of course I voted 'yes' in the poll because it is the more 'left' position, but consider prosecuting toadies like this unimportant. 

[Ebowed]

Yes.  He should be discharged from the Army and deported from the country.

They would rather be "correct" than "right"... if you know what I mean.

Sad that I have to say that, but I think about 30% of the population really want failure in Iraq and they can't seem to get it fast enough.

[12th Doctor]

Yes.  He should be discharged from the Army and deported from the country.

Yeah, I bet he talks sports like and cars like he acctually knows something about them.  Don't you just hate people like that?  Normal folks, I mean?

Umm... you are taking that just a bit too seriously.  I have no desire to discuss cars or sports with anyone, because I find it about as interesting as dirt.  Other people can talk about it if they want to.  I never said I was going to stop them.

As for my response in this thread; ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.
