Ronald Kessler reporting from Washington, D.C. The resignation of David H. Petraeus as CIA director followed an FBI investigation of many months, raising the question of why he was not forced out until after the election.
In his letter of resignation, Petraeus cited an extra-marital affair he had been having. After being married for over 37 years, I showed extremely poor judgment by engaging in an extramarital affair, Petraeus said in his letter to President Obama. Such behavior is unacceptable, both as a husband and as the leader of an organization such as ours.
Petraeus, who had a distinguished military career, revealed no additional details. However, an FBI source says the investigation began when American intelligence mistook an email Petraeus had sent to his girlfriend as a reference to corruption. Petraeus was commander of U.S. Forces in Afghanistan from July 4, 2010 until July 18, 2011.
The investigation began last spring, but the FBI then pored over his emails when he was stationed in Afghanistan.
The woman who was having an affair with Petraeus is a journalist who had been writing about him.

Don’t you see that this totally discredits Patraeus?
So no matter what he says now, he is the one that cannot be trusted. he was having sex under the desk you see.
They always do this.. This stinks right here to high heaven.
I don’t believe it I don’t believe it all went down like they are saying.
Remember the Wikileaks guy? What did they use to get him?

Rather attractive, I should say.
Why is it that Petraeus resigns when the POTUS committed perjury lying about his extra marital affairs (that’s plural) but never had to resign and the rest of his corrupt party rallied around him to protect him?
PETRAEUS RESIGNS IS THERE A BENGHAZI CONNECTION?

Wow!
“The woman who was having an affair with Petraeus is a journalist who had been writing about him.”
Sleeping with a whore.
I feel very sorry for Mrs. Petraeus..She did wonderful work on behalf of the troops
Thanks.
Not for Patraeus. If it was a man he could declare himself a "gay-American", and the media would applaud his courage for coming out of the closet.
I wonder how many posts were made on this site about Petraeus being a good presidential candidate. My experience in the military was a General having something on the side was not rare.
I became very leery of Petraeus as a presidential candidate when I learned he called himself a “Rockefeller Republican.”
What this says is that Obama knew of a compromised person and put him in the top spot at CIA and deliberately left him there. That is unbelievable!

Yes, at least she's hot. The title of the book is "All In". Imagine that.
