Bush may throw Petraeus under the bus.

From Thinkprogress:

President Bush has mentioned Gen. David Petraeus “at least 150 times this year in his speeches, interviews and news conferences.” But some in the military worry that “the general is being set up by the Bush administration as a scapegoat if conditions in Iraq fail to improve. ‘The danger is that Petraeus will now be painted as failing to live up to expectations and become the fall guy for the administration,’ one retired four-star officer said.”

Kitty Petreaus wanted to be in the club with the big boys so he knows the price of membership. Bush will blame all this mess on Bill Clinton. Now Patreaus has to live with the fact that he turned his back on the troops and became a sell out.
