Maybe MoveOn.org was right for once.....Gen. Betrayus.
Not necessarily. This is a career enhancer in certain circles, particularly if he chooses to run for office as a dim.
We live in a nation that allows homosexuals to “marry” one another. What makes the author think Petraeus even cares about his vows. A majority of the country doesn’t.
Petraeus had an affair, that was wrong and morally reprehensible. Has he lied about it while under oath? If not, he’s not as bad as Clinton.
Give me a break... Studies show that half the women and sixty percent of the men in this country have an affair in their married life.
Petraeus is a schmuck !He was taken down by a KGB "swallow"
His aide de camp had warned him !
A four star general & D/CIA
taken down by a KGB swallow !DA/DT
Petraeus has shown much better taste than Clinton.
“Worst disgrace” seems like a major overstatement.
Worse than Blagojevich? Eric Holder’s Gun Walker? Obama and Clinton on the Benghazi coverup? Jack Abramoff bribery? Charlie Rangel? Jesse Jackson Jr.? William Jefferson? Trafficant?
Or, if you’re stuck on sex scandals ... John Edwards? Larry Craig? Elliot Spitzer? Anthony Weiner? Jim McGreevey? Mark Sanford? The Secret Service? Jack Ryan?
Petraeus is hardly the biggest desgrace. He had an affair. With a woman. That he didn’t pay. And, he wasn’t doing so behind his dying wife’s back. No bribery, embezzlement, or deaths of federal agents. An affair.
There are a lot bigger disgraces than Petraeus.

Billy Graham’s policy was never be alone in a room with a woman (except his wife).
Smart policy for a powerful man.
Don’t let Ms Broadwell, or whatever her name is, off the hook so easily. She is a military officer too. She knows the rules and deliberately flaunted them. nd then she went further and threatened a third party. I wonder what she threated Ms. Kelley with that sent her runnng to the FBI?
I’m not excusing Petraeous, but it seems to me that Ms. Broadwell should suffer the same consequences — loss of rank, etc.
The saddest part is, just like Clinton, his personal failures will overshadow what might otherwise have been a stellar legacy. Many have stated that Petraeus was the greatest military commander since Eisenhower, but now he will be remembered for just being another guy who cheated on his wife and got caught.
he is Obama’s man ...better include him
“Worst disgrace since bill clinton”?
Obama, Kerry, Gore?. I can think of lots of disgraces.
Maybe he thought at the time that he was sleeping with an enemy agent as part of his job and for the love of country.
I would say that an even worse case is if the blackmailer is internal, and the blackmail is used to coerce someone like Petraeus to go along with a cover-up for higher officials.
Is there such a thing as friendly fire blackmail?

Diversionary tactic most fall for immediatley, notice no one talks about fast and furious, ben gahzi or voter fraud in the presidential race. Yea but this sex scandle is something else. They deserve everything they get. At least we knwo whats coming and we can or are prepared these nimrods have no clue
His career will never be what it would have been, but God can do miracles with a wrecked career and a damaged life. He is a master at rebuilding people.
...that we know about.
Keep in mind, we didn't know about Petraeus until after the election.
I keep reminding those around me to (1) consider that we probably don't know everything about this case or others like it, and (2) realize that we'll never receive any information about anything [from the MSM] unless its release furthers the kenyan's agenda.
Something I do not want is a CIC that will not look someone in the eye, regardless of gender. I hope this isn't true as it's odd at best. It's one thing to be mindful of not being seen as harassing but an entire other if you are so worried about it that this is what you do.
