no way, it was pretty obvious Petraeus was getting cornholed daily by Hamid Karzai, bareback no less

I’d like to think they’re jumping ship because they can’t handle another four years. No. They’re being pushed off the ship because 0bama plans on going full-on Marxist Regime the next four years. Taking bets there won’t be an election in 2016. No way there’ll be an election. Book it.

Well, I think it’s our duty to try to make things here on this earth the best we can. At some point though, it’s out of our hands.

Take care.

I guess the White House claim National Security or whatever they claim, but this hearing is already behind closed doors and those senators already have top clearance, right?

i’m not sure i’m getting exactly what you mean by that, but is it that as cia chief obama can claim he cannot testify because of national security or executive privelage, but now he can testify?

There are still some real journalists left.

I would love to agree with you, thus I offer this question. Is this the time of Watergate? Nobody died at the Watergate.

Another thread identified the woman as Petraus's biographer.... and OBTW not too bad looking.

That being said, I believe that 0bama's fawning MSM lapdogs will go full bore on this scandal of Petraus's affair, in order to divert & shift any attention away from the murders & cover-up at Benghazi and from 0dumb0shit's decision to withhold military assistance in the terrorist attack, and instead to allow the 4 American's to be murdered. The bastard may have just been re-elected (how I will never understand) but maybe a miracle could occur and we could see 0dumb0shit impeached & convicted for treason. Ohhhh that would be sweet revenge against the RAT bastard commie muzlim pig 0dumb0shit!

“SET UP ding ding ding”

Could well be so the dimoKKKRATS would have something on him if they needed it. It looks like they needed it and have played the card.

Another aspect is to damage his credibility in case he gets summoned to testify despite his resignation.

According to the book Kennedy regularly had t-shirted bimbos in the WH swimming pool and LBJ had sex in a bedroom next to the bedroom where his wife was sleeping.

just an aside. do we really need a book to tell us that? doesnt anyone think kennedy DIDNT have tons of women at the white house?

The 2nd term curse started early for Hussein. This shattered the record. 4 days!

Nixon had Watergate.

Reagan had Iran Contra

Clinton had a cum stained dress and Monica

W is looking like a genius for taking the high road.

Mossad best at this....besides the russians. Payback obamao.

you hit the nail on the head. most americans dont understand a lot about the mossad because they’re not on the news. they will not let obama allow the iranians to get nuclear weapons.

Whats happening?

The resignation forced by Obama , prevents Petreus from qualifying to testify before Issa’s House Oversight Commmittee into Benghazigate?

2nd term curse

Nobody yet knows who is cursed. Have a suspicion ... suspicion is the American people. Plan A, B, C, D, and all through the alphabet. Then the numbers kick in. Whom winds up under the curse? I do not know.
