General Petraeus, or General Delicate Flower?

The Times online has a great article http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1663424,00.html?cnn=yes
on the blasphemous headline that everyone is talking about: "General Petraeus, or General Betray Us?". The article makes a good point that Republicans would rather discuss etiquette than the war. They are even demanding that politicians publicly denounce and condemn the article. Why would anyone demand that a person condemn something which they have nothing to do with?

I am getting more an more disillusioned with politics each day. If it weren't so damned inconvenient, I'd move.

I'd move too. The only problem is, there's politics everywhere. So you have to move to your own planet. I claim planet Meghan. All mine. Lots of trees, animals, lakes, oceans, mountains, and food. No people. I just have to find the damn thing. :)
