General Petraeus Discusses Moveon.Org’s Recent “General Betray Us” Ad

General David Petraeus, Commander, Multi-National Force-Iraq
Press Conference at the National Press Club
September 12, 2007

QUESTION: “There’s the sense that the emotions of the politics around Iraq are heightening, and some of it was very personally to you, General Petraeus. I wonder if you can comment on the MoveOn.org ad. …”

PETRAEUS: “…Needless to say, to state the obvious, I disagree with the message of those who are exercising the First Amendment right that generations of soldiers have sought to preserve for Americans. Some of it was just flat completely wrong, and the rest is at least more than arguable.”

YouTube has the video.
