Yes, it's been said he can turn water into bottled water (miracle-worker)


"For a long time now, we've wanted to figure out whether or not our strategy in Iraq is working, whether there were signs of progress or perhaps forces there beyond our control. The time to do that hasn't been right, but I feel it coming 

[on screen: pols and media figures saying they are waiting for Gen. Petraeus' progress report]. 

While this man, this general clearly named for the Greek God of progress assessing, his powers have not always been so great. For instance, six weeks before the 2004 presidential election, General Petraeus wrote a Washington Post op-ed about the Iraq war that was so upbeat, you would have thought the insurgency was in its last throws. 

I certainly hope that one incredibly relevant to the story here mistake won't cause pundits and politicians to be too cautious in their assessments of the general

Yes, it's been said he can turn water into bottled water." --Jon Stewart
