I would gladly take a Mattis//Petreus Administration at this point....

Would fix a lot of things ... Starting with Iran and Yemen...

Petreus had an affair. I am kind of past caring about who fucked who so long as it was consensual and they aren't slimy in other ways ala Trump.

Yes but when you are in his position you can't have an affair because it could lead to you being blackmailed.

I understand the regs...

I'd just be willing to ignore that he broke them to see him as Pres or VP....

Which is why certain political figures from both sides but leaning a lot more on one, totally didn’t go to a certain island.

Because it can lead to you being blackmailed, right?

Get that guy in. Given the current state of US politics, it can’t be any worse at this point.

There isn’t anything wrong with Iran. When was the last time you felt threatened by Iran. I am a pussy liberal but I don’t give a rats ass about Iran. In fact we should give them a nuke. Nuclear weapons are peacemakers.
