here is one thing to ponder:
it is only a security risk if it is not known. so why not just announce it and move on, stay in the job?
I thought the exact same thing.

The Answer...IS...PETRAEUS, BECAME A GREAT LIABILITY TO OBAMA...THE-LIAR-IN-CHIEF!
WAKE UP...AMERICA!
The Great General David Howell Petraeus was SET UP!
He Fought Many a Great Battle...Defeating ALL KINDS OF ENEMIES...YET...HE COULD NOT SEE/ID THE DOMESTIC ENEMY SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM IN HIS OWN BED!
Due to his Poor Judgments, Decisions and Indescretions and by Not Being Able To Control Himself...HIS POWER WENT TO HIS HEAD, AND IT DESTROYED HIM, HIS WIFE OF 37 YEARS: HOLLY, HIS FAMILY AND HIS SOLID MILITARY CAREER!
HE THREW IT ALL AWAY...FOR WHAT?
NOW...Petraeus...Has NOTHING TO LOSE!
He Should Stand UP and Be The Great Patriot that He IS... GO To Capital Hill in D.C. and TELL Congress and The American People He Loved and Defended...THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH!...SO HELP HIM...GOD!
BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING LEFT TO LOOSE!
OH...THE TANGELED WEB WE WEAVE!
