“If Petraeus is the man he appears to be, we’ll hear the truth.”

Here’s the only problem with that. But for Clapper, Petraeus might well have tried to gut it out. He thought his affair could be kept secret. Note that he didn’t bring it to light and resign because of a pang of conscience. He did so merely because he knew it was going to be publicized anyway, so the path of least resistance was to preemptively resign rather than be forced to resign through circumstances. Thus, he’s far less honorable than he might appear.

Maybe, I think he was told to back the WH line which we all now know is BS or else. He probably agonized, on what to do, and in fact sounds like he may have given false testimony in the closed door hearing.

If he comes forth and tells the truth about OBAMA and his mininons all sins are forgiven.

One thing for sure... Obama will fail the next test and the next one. Our enemies are biting at the bit right now to test us. You think he’ll go to the aid of Taiwan....hell no...Do you think he’ll put the screws now to Iran...nope...Iraq is deteriorating by the day...
