Harry Reid...but I'm not questioning his patriotism.
Senate Majority Leader, Democrat Harry Reid was one of many to get out in front of General Petraeus’ visit to Congress with various statements, more or less pre-discrediting whatever the General was to report:
“On Friday, Reid went so far as to question not only the true source of the report but also the four-star general's honesty.
"He has made a number of statements over the years that have not proven to be factual," Reid said. "I have every belief that this good man will give us what he feels is the right thing to do in his report, but it's not his report anymore. It's Bush's report."

Harry Reid has had problems with General Petraeus for awhile(Captain's Quarters: the Five Myths of Harry) – seemingly since he voted for his nomination to General. Especially after this week’s appearance before Congress, I have no doubt who I and most Americans find the more credible source for news coming from Iraq.
…and, just for fun, an oldie-but-goodie: YouTube - Dennis Miller Rips Harry Reid a new one.
