Accidental honesty

This is a surprisingly honest answer.
Senator Warner (R - VA): Are you able to say at this time if we continue what you have laid before the congress here,this strategy. do you feel that that is making America safer?

General Petraeus: Sir, I believe this is indeed the best course of action to achieve our objectives in Iraq.

Warner: Does that make America safer?

Petraeus: Sir, I don't know actually.

Didn't he get the memo that the script for today is "9/11, al Qayda, 9/11, al Qayda, 9/11, al Qayda, 9/11, al Qayda"?

This should be the leading clip on all of the newscasts tonight. And yet, I don't really expect to see it.
