However, did you know that this man also is a rare breed so far as that while under attack in Iraq, he actually walked towards the sound of mortar fire with only his pistol drawn? God Bless this fine man, I thank God people like him exist. Ladies and Gentlemen this outstanding individual is exactly the right man for the job as I am sure you all know.

They think that he has Chrohn's disease which is something they couldn't diagnose in Iraq. He sounds happier and he says he's feeling better! :) So far, so good! Now we just need to get his weight up! :) If it weren't for the General he probably would've wasted away to nothingness and died as a result of negligence. His Physician wanted to have him taken out of Iraq, but couldn't get the authority. I thank God for the blessing that he has given to me and to Jason's family. He's given us more time on earth together. How about that? :) Christian Soldier #35,

I don't think he's interested in VP. He strikes me as sincere in his statements concerning politics, and is a fine general. I could see him as Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in a McCain administration. Unfortunately, I still think it's gonna be a Clinton administration, part II. Hope I'm wrong about that! Congratulations, General Petraeus. God bless General Petraeus, and God bless America.
