“Sounds like from his resignation letter, he is going to keep covering up for the Obama admin.”

It’s exactly what I would expect.

He has no integrity, and he’ll continue to look out for #1. There’s nothing in it for him to reveal the truth re Benghazi.

Really? What are the odds he was being blackmailed to keep his trap shut about Benghazi?

Better to be caught in bed with a gal than be caught instead covering for a lyin' president.

I think as long as he used condoms provided by the government It all ok in our new world under democrats. but if he didn’t and his girlfriend became pregnant, that would be ok as well because Obama would help them go to Planned Parenthood and schedule an abortion and then even if it didn’t work and the child survived the abortion, Obama believes that the Doctor would be able to murder the child.
And if the doctor saw Patreus and they liked each other they could get married and smoke some together. So why would he resign? They could listen to some Jay-Z.

If Clinton and Holder aren’t demonic enough to back your play, you must really have some vile plans in store.

My thoughts exactly. Dark days ahead for us.

2 Corinthians 11:12-15: "But what I am doing, I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the matter about which they are boasting. For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their deeds."

my guess, is that Obama’s people stated you go along with our side, in the upcoming investigation or we out you on this affair... and he probably said screw it, I won’t do it.. I’ll come out now with the affair, and resign..

During the first weeks of the Benghazi fiasco, there was one news item where it seemed like someone in the administration was acting responsibly. That was when Petraeus said that no one in the CIA had ordered anyone to stand-down while those in the consulate were asking for help. He seemed to be defending his organization, then he seemed to go silent.

I wonder if the affair could have been used to shut him up and blackmail him after that, and now he’s putting it out there and resigning to get out from under a blackmail.
And maybe he plans to tell the truth at the hearings.

Just using a little imagination and many things are possible at this point.

Can't answer that one. If you had put a period on the end of it would have typed, yep, no, maybe.

How convenient for Hannity to take the day off. He probably doesn’t know what to say.
