I noticed this too. It seemed to start with the interminable denouncements by Reps before the testimony, followed by disavowals by Dems, followed by great concern on NPR that the general's feelings may had been hurt. A stupid cheap shot it may have been, but Jesus H., you'd think Petraeus was some sensitive 8 year old on the playground from the concern you hear.
