There is no doubt that General Petraeus is the right man to lead our troops in Afghanistan" said Senator Cornyn. He is a tried and true field commander who wrote the book on modern counterinsurgency strategy. He deserves our nations thanks for accepting this assignment and my prayers and best wishes go with him to Afghanistan. I anticipate he will be confirmed quickly and he will have my vote and full support."
--U.S. Senator John Cornyn
