Class, We have a very special guest for you, today.

We look forward to seeing General Petraeus testify in Congress next week if only to see (again) in bold relief what the bearing, manner and presence of a professional and honorable military man looks like while addressing a roomful of children.

Nancy Pelosi has already gone on record as saying she doesn’t want to hear too much happy-talk from the General or Ambassador Crocker… no-spin regarding the recent events in Basra where militant Shiite cleric, Al-Sadr has backed-down (again) because, we imagine, he was tired of getting his ass kicked (again).



And Pelosi wonders how it is that the Iraq military and government were caught off-guard by this uprising in Basra. After all, the Iraqis are just the puppets, right? We’re the ones that are ultimately calling the shots over there, right?

P.S. If the gentleman pictured above balled at Ohio State, he'd need two helmets.
