The Real General Betray Us

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Bill Clinton like this before.

But as much as Petraeus soiled himself, he’s no Peter Pace:

Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, caused a stir at a Senate hearing Wednesday when he said he believes homosexual activity is immoral and should not be condoned by the military. Pace, who retires next week, said he was seeking to clarify similar remarks he made in spring, which he said were misreported.

“Are there wonderful Americans who happen to be homosexual serving in the military? Yes,” he told the Senate Appropriations Committee during a hearing focused on the Pentagon’s 2008 war spending request.

“We need to be very precise then, about what I said wearing my stars and being very conscious of it,” he added. “And that is, very simply, that we should respect those who want to serve the nation but not through the law of the land, condone activity that, in my upbringing, is counter to God’s law.”

Misreported. They were misreported so badly that he managed to reaffirm exactly what he said previously.

Peter: I don’t give a fuck about your “upbringing.” “God’s law” has fuck all to do with the Constitution, you know, that now-shit-stained document that places your bigoted ass in the national chain of command and allows you to wear all those shiny medals on your chest.

Here’s hoping your retirement is short-lived and filled up with wall-to-wall hearings at which you are forced to answer for all the lies you’ve run since becoming chairman. Lord willing.

    Why doesn’t Peter Piss just piss off to the land where, by the grace of God, God’s law prevails, and there are no homosexuals?
