My guess is Petraeus isn’t so damaged that he can’t get a major executive job or write a book or two. He’ll do just fine even if the government cuts of his cash flow. He’ll also feel better knowing he told the truth.

I agree...everyone keeps going on about his wife's "big" job and his pension. If he spills the beans on Barry & Co., he would become a national hero.

In a sane country, maybe Petraeus could be a national hero. In the USSA? Not a chance. The media will cover it up, make distractions, do damage control, and inevitably assure that he’s remembered as a philandering, incompetent racist.

There is no way to turn this guy into a hero even if he turns on his master. Do heroes slut around after other women? Do heroes work for Obama in the first place?

[DoughtyOne]

Yep, that last sentence is his saving grace IMO.

[bonfire]

I’m all for giving him a second chance. Yes, we are disappointed but he’s a flawed human like all of us.

Hope he lives up to our expectations tomorrow.

i didnt think of that. he will be the new american hero. (although not for 47 percent).

Well... with 48% of the "nation," anyway. The remaining 51% would want his head on a platter for upsetting their little "free stuff" applecart.
