“I found the advertisement distasteful, disappointing, and, frankly, not reflective of the views I hold and I suspect the views that almost everybody in the Senate, Democrat or Republican, holds. I don't know General Petraeus well, but I do know him to be a decent and honorable person, a good leader; someone who has given really the majority of his life to serve the people of our country, sometimes in dangerous and harmful situations; someone who is willing to spend not just months but years away, separated from his family, in support of our country and serving as he has pledged to do, as he has sworn to do. He is someone who, in my own experience with him, is a straight shooter. He calls them like he sees them.”
