Someone doing the web again

This bogus guy sends dating requests to meetic members under the name dave howell petraeus.. be wary.. the army should close in on this falsetto!

to lyndz of xx

I think there IS someone pretending, I have been communicating (not on Skype) with someone claiming to be D.P., weird

Hmmm

I don't think Petraeus is human.... 10 miles in 64 minutes at age 49? I can't do that now at 18 (granted, I've had surgery on both knees to prevent them from dislocating and they are still pretty f__ked up). That on top of that he graduated top of his class and went to Princeton, I maintain he's either space alien or the military's first attempt at a Halo style Spartan.

Chat with him???

go on skype...He was under General David Howell-Petreaus(Spelt wrong)...Now under David Petraeus.Someone out there is pretending to be the GENERAL?,unless i was chatting with the real McCoy???....Naughty Naughty.

Занятно

Я вот думаю, а где Вы материал взяли для этой статьи? Неужели из головы? :)

Didn't Know?

I was expecting something we didn't know, not a list available anywhere with a minimum of research. How about the fact he eats Pop-Tarts for breakfast? At least that's something most folks don't know. What a waste of time this article is.

Провокационный пост. Поэтому такие и комменты :)

Visionary

When coach Lombardi took over the Greenbay Packers - at his first meeting with the team, he expounded, "Gentlemen, let's start with the basics - this is a football".

Should this nation survive this disastorous presidency, perhaps we might have Petraeous as the president who could hold up the bible and say, "let's start with the basics, the foundation of this great nation - ladies and gentlemen, this is a bible, upon which this nation was founded".

This nation's government is so utterly corrupt - from the bureaucrats to the leadership - we need a man of steel and velvet!

The General

Looks like a really great man.

Perfect running mate for Sarah

oh really?

Im glad there is some bio on this guy, because he looks like anything but a soldier. If i didnt know, Id think hes just some nerd playing dress-up.
