 * Seems perfectly on-mission to me, he's a personification of the CIA's little-noted transformation into a secret army. Sophie  Wilder  20:59, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
 * (ec)So he's an authoritarian? Still needs rwification though, I don't think we actually care about the sex scandel. Peter Subsisting on honey 21:01, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
 * He's not an authoritarian, he's an authority figure, one who's been a chess piece of both Democrats and Republicans. As to his affair, it should be covered.  It'd be one thing if he just hopped on his maid every so often, but he pursued an affair with a reporter, and there the risk of leaks (though this is still in the air at the moment).  Moreover, his mistress, Broadwell, sent threatening emails to a suspected romantic rival- emails investigated by the FBI because the receiver was "connected."

 * This article reads more like Uncyclopedia than anything useful. -- Seth Peck (talk) 21:05, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I didn't say the article was good. I haven't even read it.  I just said the topic is on-mission.  Assuming that "David Petraeus" isn't the name of a new sex act or deli sandwich or something.-- "Shut up, Brx." 21:14, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Fact is, outside the obvious de-mystification the Cult of the Military-Industrial-Media Complex which he represents, his stupidity will impact generations. 22:07, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

For fairly standard US General
This thing seems really damn snarkish for no reason then for the sake to be snarkish. --Revolverman (talk) 01:55, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Ugh. Evil fascist oh noez 02:42, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * The snark is with this one all right. --DamoHi 03:18, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

I know some of you guys are across the pond, so let's be clear, PIERCE MORGAN is making a mint on this every night on CNN. Need I say more about the need to be skeptical of the CNN lip-service to the military that the US has been dealing with since 1991?
