Petraeus AGAIN Won't Say He'll Prepare A Withdrawal Plan

Asked by Brad Sherman of California if he'll plan or execute a withdrawal plan in the case of a president elected on an antiwar platform, Petraeus again declined. "I can only serve one boss at a time," he said. While this time he waded a toe into the waters of saying that he'd "expect" to receive "contingency planning" from the Pentagon and Central Command chief, Petraeus added, "I'm very uncomfortably, candidly, with where the conversation is going, as a military man who believes in civilian control."
