This is How It's Done, Petraeus!

Comrades! The new day of flexibility is upon us. At last we can deal with the enemies the way enemies should be dealt with. As Red Square has pointed out in his inestimable post, we can finally show the world that we can build Socialism in one country. We will get it Right!

One of the tasks of all right-thinking people is vigilance against enemies of the State and of the Leader. The Party is the vanguard of this vigil, ever-watchful for those who would slander the moral correctness of all State actions or the wisdom of the Leader's decisions. Previous incarnations of the Soviet have used crude methods (after all, what would you expect from a Georgian peasant) of fear, imprisonment, even execution to combat the enemies of the State. Here is where we, the New Vanguard of the Revolution, are superior to those who have come before.

David Petraeus is a fine example of how the New Vanguard does business.

The resignation of CIA Director David Petraeus has brought a sudden and unexpected end to the public career of a four-star general who led U.S. troops in Afghanistan and Iraq and was thought to be a potential candidate for president.
First we demonstrate how even the mighty can be brought to heel for implicating the Party or the Leader, and at the same time take a slap at the Republicans (who but they would likely nominate a soldier and spy-master?)

Next, we show the magnanimity of the Leader in graciously allowing the offender to fall on his sword, then leave it to un-named underlings to drag the corpse through the streets by its heels:

Petraeus admitted to an extramarital affair in tendering his resignation, which President Barack Obama accepted Friday.

Petraeus carried on the affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell, a reserve Army officer, according to several U.S. officials with knowledge of the situation. They spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to discuss publicly the investigation that led to the resignation.
Then we remind all that We Are Watching You.

The FBI discovered the relationship by monitoring Petraeus' emails, after being alerted Broadwell may have had access to his personal email account, two of the officials said.
Then we get to the reasons behind this fall from grace:

CIA Deputy Director Michael Morell will serve as acting director, Obama said. Morell was the key CIA aide in the White House to President George W. Bush during the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.
Set up the patsy and at the same time plant the seeds of guilt by association to explain why he too cannot be trusted

"I am completely confident that the CIA will continue to thrive and carry out its essential mission," Obama said.
Said mission being to deflect all blame from Benghazi from the White House and the Leader

The resignation comes at a sensitive time. The administration and the CIA have struggled to defend security and intelligence lapses before the attack that killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three others. It was an issue during the presidential campaign that ended with Obama's re-election Tuesday.
Blame the political opposition for trying to politicize the issue to embarrass the Leader at a crucial time in his campaign.

The CIA has come under intense scrutiny for providing the White House and other administration officials with talking points that led them to say the Benghazi attack was a result of a film protest, not a militant terror attack. It has become clear that the CIA was aware the attack was distinct from the film protests roiling across other parts of the Muslim world.
Make it clear that all of the misinformation coming from the White House, the Party, and, most importantly, the Leader, was entirely due to lies told by Petraeus, and plant the meme that the only possible source of information was the CIA. Carefully exclude any reference to State Department communications or the realtime intelligence feeds from operators on the ground and assets in the air streaming live to the White House Situation Room. Make sure that everyone knows that the administration was duped by an unfaithful husband who simply cannot be trusted.

Morell rather than Petraeus now is expected to testify at closed congressional briefings next week on the assault on the consulate in Benghazi, which occurred on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
Set up the patsy. Remember folks, he was appointed by Bush and was part of 9/11. If he tries to implicate the White House, the Party, or the Leader, he's a dirty, dirty liar!

Now THAT's how it's DONE.

Comrade,

No one can read between the lines better than you.

As everyone knows, gulags and death are reserved for Outer Party and proletariat dissidents, units that will not be noticeably missed. We employ that method still (think the California filmmaker-of-offense to our Religion of Peace™ brethren and Andrew Breitbart).

Why discard effective, time-tested techniques?

Nevertheless, it warms me like beet vodka that you pointed out that it is indeed incontestable that we are far superior to those who have come before.

But Comrade Brain-in-Jar, the method of disposal of our formerly-dear General has ever been practiced on members of the Inner Party. Oh sure, some have simply and suddenly disappeared, but that is another always-available option when they cannot be bought off.

Be it known that the Collective's equal commendation is yours. You have accurately divined the dog-whistle message conveyed to our other Inner-Party members, and the setup for the fall of our next patsy, whom you correctly identified. Your service will not go unpunished unrecognized.

Three things:

1. This topic was purged all election-fraud-related posts, which were moved to a new thread.

2. The Visual Agitation Dept. created an illustration for it.

3. A slightly edited version was posted today in our Washington Times column:

The purge of Gen. Patraeus: this is how it's done!

Congratulations, Comrade Betinov, on your first promotion. I'd say you're going neck to neck with Commissarka Pinkie if you hadn't donated your neck to the Party some years earlier.

Wow. Simply Wow. Betinov got a by-line? Wow. Thank you, Red Square.

Excellent work Comrade Betinov! Clearly your intelligence is more equal than the rest of us. In fact, your equalness is unequaled! I raise my glass of beet vodka to you! Now, pick up the shovel and get back to work.


The leader of the most powerful intelligence agency in the world can't keep his girlfriend secret, but not a whisper do we hear of Obama's conversations during his California Gay Bash.

Comrade Loaf, do not forget which side your slice is buttered upon! Or by whom! Or something like that.

Ya gotta spread the butter around...

User avatar
Provost Bloomturd has forbidden butter on our bread ration, comrade ROCK. Beware!

Butter is a tool of the obesity-generating kapitalists! Instead try I Can't Believe It's Not Rutabaga, from the makers of Miracle Beet.

Looks most deliciously equal, Comrade Grenadier - I shall swing by the government rations store on my way home from the beet fields this evening!
