If we had an executive with even tiny cajones, he would issue an immediate pardon and wish Petraeus good luck.

He should cite Sandy Berger as a reason to skate on this issue.

Looks like he is pleading to a misdemenour to avoid facing the more serious felony charges.

Someone who was very famous, once said, “The one who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and the one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.”

Seems often to go with the territory. George Patton got into a personally worse mess that did not get him prosecuted when he committed adultery and incest with his niece.

Weird. So many fish in the sea to catch without whispering classified nothings into their gills.

“the one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.”

Easy to say for someone who doesn’t get deployed for years on end, deprived of all sex.

It is also a logical fallacy.
