How long before Lt. General Petraeus gets his promotion?

[DemoTex]

Just askin'.

1. Anyone catch a glimpse of Jeff Gannon under the table?

Just who does he visit at the white house anyway?

[Retired AF Dem]

2. General Petraeus has four stars which makes him

a full General. A Lt General has three stars. Now he could be moved to a higher command or Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

[Crabby Appleton]

3. He already has 4 stars, is an O-10 (General), not O-9 (LT General)

no more stars are likely.

[DemoTex]

4. You are correct. Why did I think he was a Lt. Gen.?

But star, schmarr .. I'll bet there is a tasty quid-pro-quo in this for Petraeus.


"DemoTex, you ass, I have FOUR stars and I'll testify to that under oath!"

5. lucrative position with Halliburton or Carlyle after he gets out?

[Eagle_Eye]

7. BINGO!

Look for him to retire soon. He will write a book and take a fat job as a consultant with a defense contractor.

[Hubert Flottz]

11. Nope the GOP will slide him into the VP slot if they can!

As long as he kisses the right thing, for the reich wing.

[Crabby Appleton]

8. He got promoted in Jan 07, - Lt Gen was probably stuck in your mind

[rox63]

9. No more stars

But I'm betting on the Medal of Freedom (tm)

[hang a left]

6. I am most positive he received his "promotion"

in an off shore account way ahead of his testimony before congress.

10. You mean how long before he's selected president? nt
