Petraeus to Try to ‘Put Life Back Together’ Before Any Benghazi Testimony
pjmedia.com ^ | 11/11/12 | Bridget Johnson

The ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee said he’s spoken to former CIA Director David Petraeus about still testifying on the Benghazi attack — and the answer is not now.

Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) said on ABC’s This Week this morning that his committee wasn’t told about the Petraeus investigation — reportedly centering around his mistress and emails — until Friday, when the general’s resignation was announced.

“He and I have already had a conversation. You know, he’s trying to put his life back together right now and that’s what he needs to focus on,” Chambliss said in regard to Thursday’s closed-door Benghazi hearing, at which Petraeus was supposed to testify.

If Petreus feels his life is in danger, he should hand write everything he knows and send it to people that are investigating in case something happens to him-like a “suicide” you know because he’s so distraught. Someone has GOT to out BO for what he has done.

He may deserve some slack for his sacrifices over the years, but I’m not in favor of it.

The man needs to ‘Buck Up’ and do the right thing. If he fails to do that I would put him is my $hit turd category of fakes.

He has a once in a generation opportunity to turn everything around. I hope he takes it. He could use all his skill and take this whole bunch of assholes down. He wants an intellectual challenge...here’s one.

Strike while the iron is hot!

I think the time for a "Million citizen" march on capitol hill is at hand.
First SCOTUS on ObamaCare, A coverup on FnF, and now Benghazi!

Our government is beyond lawless.

Likely blackmailed and/or threatened, with these disclosures merely being a warning foretaste. All of this comes out about his infidelity, that he has surely been doing for years, just as he is suppose to testify. Sure, and I have a bridge to sell in Brooklyn, too.

"...Panetta will be thrown under the bus as the one who ordered the stand down command concerning Benghazi..."

I believe the Zero would prefer "thrown under the limo" after this last despotic election.

If you are ever a witness in a very serious court case, that might impinge upon your life, remember to tell the judge that you can’t come because you need to clean up your personal life.

This is BS and a stunt to keep him from testifying. I think the man is tough enough to deal with the "stress" he is under now.

"...Upon promotion to lieutenant colonel, Petraeus moved from the office of the Chief of Staff to Fort Campbell, Kentucky, where he commanded the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault)'s 3rd Battalion 187th Infantry Regiment, known as the "Iron Rakkasans",from 1991–1993.

During this period, he suffered one of the more dramatic incidents in his career; in 1991 he was accidentally shot in the chest with an M-16 assault rifle during a live-fire exercise when a soldier tripped and his rifle discharged. He was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, where he was operated on by future U.S. Senator Bill Frist. The hospital released him early after he did fifty push-ups without resting, just a few days after the accident.

And why was Petraeus camp follower whore threatening this other woman? Petraeus have more than one?

This guy has just had his 37 year golden boy career flushed congressman. Every hear of Mike Bourda? What happens when golden boy blows his brains out tomorrow morning and leaves us with NEVER getting the testimony?
Subpeona and arrest if he does not show. Exactly like a private. The nerve of this SOB. Would he ever let a soldier refuse the nations call because he needs to get his life in order?

May the families of slain Ambassador Chris, and the three security personnel, also be put back together as quickly as possible, namely CLOSURE vis a vis immediate Congressional hearings and subpoenas?? To a man and women, they all felt they were lied to on the tarmac at Andrews AB by Obama and Hillary, as their loved ones came home in flag draped coffins. We owe that to them and that should be the governing schedule, and on the double at that!

Awww, the little general needs some time to emotionally unwind after getting caught screwing some bimbette behind his wife's back.

Maybe the whole country should just take a few deep breaths and let the general decompress...

Hey Patraeus!

Duty requires you General to put Country above personal matters, ALWAYS!

Are you going to honor your Uniform, or hide behind your shared, but new woman’s dress?

Note to FReeper with graphic skill: PING me if you post a graphic similar to the above comments. Thanks.

” - - - Subpoena. Now. - - - “

If BOTH the General and his new Lady Lust were subpoened, even MSNBC would be forced to cover the testimony.

Any bets on him living long enough to testify?

That is a $64,000 question, subject to tax, of course....

” - - - Any bets on him living long enough to testify? - - - “

It all depends upon what the real facts of Benghazi are.

Case # 1.) Obama, Holder and the CIA have been running guns to al-Qaeda rebels in Syria for many months.

Thus, increasing US security in Benghazi would put dangerous pressure on the 10 al-Qaeda training camps near Benghazi.

More US Security would also increase the probably that this CIA coordinated gun-running to Syria would be revealed to Americans that are not loyal to Obama.

Case # 2.) The General, as CIA head, discovered Obama’s gun-running and confronted Obama. The deal that was made was that the General could keep his life if he would wait until after Obama was re-elected, AND if the General could figure out a way of resigning without testifying.

Case # 3.) Obama froze on 9-11-2012, refused to save the 4 Americans and the General and Obama had a titanic shouting match. Obama became the Benghazi Coward, and the General headed for Petticoat Junction.

Case # 4.) Dr. Lady Lust, from Harvard, is an al-qaeda spy, obtained and sold secrets from the General by the oldest of all methods.

Cas # 5.) Some of all of cases 1-4 are true.

___________

I think that the General will probably lawyer up, delay testifying until Benghazi-Coward Obama is sworn in on January 20, 2013 so that IMPEACHMENT Proceedings will not delay Obama’s second Inauguration.

Right after Obama is sworn in Obama will pardon the General, as long as he keeps his mouth shut, he will live a long life.

If the General states that he will testify honestly, and soon then the General just might have a “Breitbart incident” this month.

Prediction: Dr. Lady Lust will be assigned to the WH or UN Ambassador’s Staff, and sell the movie right to her book “All In” to a consortium of Steven Speilberg, Michael Moore and Larry Flynt. Censoring by The Pentagon and CIA will be instead done, if needed, by the former Chicago staff at ACORN.
