CIA Director David Petraeus today submitted his letter of resignation to President Obama. The move was announced in a statement by Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. The excuse he has cited is an extra-marital affair. Im not buying it. The timing just before some of the the most serious Congressional hearings of our time, (the Benghazi hearings) next week, is more than intriguing.

How in the hell can the Director of the CIA get away with such? I mean WTF?
I’m sure he’ll be conveniently “out of the country” for the next few months while he patches things up with his wife and will be unable to receive a subpoena while gone.
I know as a Christian I’m supposed to be forgiving, but I have real trouble with doing this with that Obama dude. Argghhh!!
More likely Mephistopheles, Beelzebub, & Diabolus (Obama's law firm).

PURGE!
Can’t help but wonder just how long the affair went on before he decided that it was “unacceptable in a leader”?
Obama's people wanted to get rid of him, and the "scandal" gives them reason to do so. That's my take anyway.
Followed, shared, you rock.
“...visit by Guido and Luigi from the White House.”
More like “Achmed and Amir.”
Maybe Barry will end up resigning........Biden declared mentally incompetent.....Speaker Boehner, anyone?
“Unless they have some even worse blackmail on him, and forced him to resign, with the affair as a cover story.”
Chechez la femme! A little French lingo there.

Worry about your soul and your salvation. What obozo does he has to answer to God for. Be glad you won’t be there when he does stand before God.
“Worry about your soul and your salvation. What obozo does he has to answer to God for. Be glad you wont be there when he does stand before God.”
Amen, brother. (Or sister!)
Tell me what you think about this theory, cooked it up myself...Petraeus was summoned to the White Hut, he is told he is going to be fired.
However he is offered a chance to “save face” in a way, not a very good way because Hussein hates the military and America, but Petraeus is told he can lie and say he had an affair and must leave for personal reasons, even though he was in reality just being given the boot by the dictator.
This makes Hussein look like he did not fire Petraeus. It humiliates Petraeus, as Hussein wanted, but it is less so than a public firing for any job related offense that P. would never commit anyway.
Hussein is clearing out any possible patriots.
When I heard of P. “resigning” today I said “Ha, is Vladimir the replacement?!”. (semi-sarcasm on)
We are in the Mudd Club now.
Yeah, isn't it just soooo "Convenient" that he chose now to bare his soul.
The only reason I could accept is that somehow his wife found out and threatened to go public.
Other than that, someone has put pressure on him to resign, (and do so post haste) so that he "might" escape having to testify.
I think your theory is as more plausible than the press story. P may have insisted on resigning over the whole mess, and was blackmailed by Barry into the reason, ie the affair rather than Barry’s abandoning the people.
Perhaps is pension was on the line.
is=his
Barry has his boot on the neck of the honorable public servants. He would strip them of their retirement in a heartbeat.
Totally correct. It makes one uneasy, to think what the full story might be.
There certainly is something rotten in Denmark that’s for sure.
I am now listening to the late airing (WLS-Chicago) of Mark Levin’s show. He also says something is rotten about this, especially the timing.
He is lambasting CryBaby Boehner now. Good.
