Will the right condemn "The American Conservative"?


"David Petraeus is a political general. Yet in presenting his recent assessment of the Iraq War and in describing the “way forward,” Petraeus demonstrated that he is a political general of the worst kind—one who indulges in the politics of accommodation that is Washington’s bread and butter but has thereby deferred a far more urgent political imperative, namely, bringing our military policies into harmony with our political purposes." -- Andrew Bacevich in The American Conservative - 10/8/07

UPDATE

John Cornyn (R-TX) is apparently not going to sponsor any legislation to denounce this despicable attack on Gen. Petraeus by TAC.

Shameful.

Here's his contact form. Maybe he's just so outraged, he's stunned silent.
