Benghazi Index
Perhaps once Eric Cantor got wind of it the Obama team's plan to hide it or keep it for current or future blackmail fell apart, given that Cantor would immediately connect blackmail to Petraeus' early support of the false spontaneous video mob narrative.
Also at the time Petraeus was forced out, mistress Broadwell had already stated on Oct. 26 that Petraeus fully well knew it was a terrorist attack and knew that Delta Force had been requested...which you don't do for any irrate mob...and she intimated that Petraeus was frustrated that he had to support the mob story.
Petraeus is much more naive than I thought.
Petraeus is even dumber than I originally thought....treasonous and stupid and ambitious....just like his boss in the WH
was Petraeus blackmailed by obama to lie to congress? forget being blackmailed by foreign countries..was he blackmailed for political reasons? didnt hear hanity ask the question.
ping to new WaPo report from “admirers” of Petraeus.
Amazing what people will throw away for a little strange.
He's a foolish, naive, self-serving dope. He was compromised!
I'll wager he was only afraid of his wife finding out!
All that means is that he was not the man that most of us thought! He should have resigned earlier or never taken the job of CIA director. Sorry for all of you non morality folks, but this is the kind of activity that is simply wrong on many levels. It interferes with his duties along with jeopardizing security.
Character does matter and he has shown his here (not his best side). Too bad that it effects the rest of his career but it should! I just wish that character mattered for the rest of the politicians these days.
If he actually had any decent character, he would not only resign but welcome testifying about Benghazi. That makes him a hypocrite with the best of politicians! As such, I expect nothing more or less (unfortunately)!
The October surprise two weeks too late. The November surprise is that Obama knew and kept it from the American public. I hope it proves out that the regime is so corrupt that the House impeaches Obama.
A man having an affair hopes things stay private? Fascinating. In other news, water is wet.
Cantor had an obligation to refer this tip to the appropriate house committees. I have read that the reason he didn’t is because he was not
sure if the tip was credible. Hogwash. If the tip was credible enough to
Turn over to the FBI, it was credible enough to turn over to his committees
And let his committee chairmen decide through hearings what the truth was.
All Cantor did was pass the buck. And I also don’t believe that he did not
Tell Bonehead.
Yes, Peter, thanks for that astute observation. Petraeus was in the relationship so, yes, obviously Petraeus knew about the relationship. Good grief, man, think about what you say before talking to the press
Betrayus hoped affair would stay secret.
Not when you are working with Chicago Thugs.
Obama already used it as blackmail to make sure Petraeus adhered to the administration line three days later that it was the video. It was odd at the time and now we know why.

Am I the only one that doesn’t believe any of this as it’s being presented. These are all different lies covering other lies that come back to a single source. There’s likely a story or two that we may never hear about layered in here as well.

” .,..retired Army colonel and Petraeus’s executive officer during the Iraq “surge,”...”
Probably an indication of sloppy reporting. A 4-star would rate a general officer as an XO. This colonel was probably an aide while an O-5. If he was an aide he would be in a position to know a lot about the general’s personal life — much more than an ‘executive officer” probably would know.
