 Raw Video: Petraeus Collapses in the SenatePosted on Jun 15, 2010
If you can’t take the McCain, get out of the hearing. Gen. David Petraeus was rushed from a Senate chamber Tuesday after fainting in the middle of a question from Sen. John McCain. So far jet lag, dehydration, exhaustion and a lack of breakfast have all been cited as possible explanations. The general recovered almost instantly from his fainting spell and returned to the room expressing a desire to continue, but the hearing was suspended for a day. The Guardian points out that Petraeus was treated for prostate cancer last year, although he announced his cancer only after learning that the treatment was successful.

Maybe while McC. was vomiting up his disgusting admiration of our hired killers in the military, P. started contemplating the number of murders for which he’s responsible and was overcome by guilt.
