Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer on Tuesday said the White House used David Petraeus’s affair to get the CIA director to give testimony about the attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that was in line with the administration’s position on the matter.
Appearing on Fox News's Special Report, Krauthammer said, "The sword was lowered on Election Day" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

True, but if the facts reveal that Obama was working with Islamists, it doesn’t necessarily bode well for the Democrats in the Senate either. One only assumes Dems would vote for him and not against because they’re in the same party.
I think it helps to remember that their credibility (and political careers) would be on the line as well.
I think that weapons heading to “Syrian freedom fighters” are being diverted to muslim Al Queda affiliated groups all over the M.E. and Africa.
Notice how this works.
warlike behavior not authorized by Congress = overseas contingency operation
terror attack in US = workplace violence
lying = I misspoke
blackmail = holding something over someone’s head
Can we please call a spade a spade? Geesh
This whole thing is about the white house blackmailing people to tow the line. Question is, who is still out there that they will blackmail if this isn’t exposed?
All the other hoopla around this issue is people reacting to the breach.
This became a big deal when the FBI guy went to Cantor.
There is a more specific word for “held over his head;” it is blackmail.

“What was Obama covering up?” (in Benghazi) -ROS
How does covering up that Obama was perfectly willing, and gave orders directing, that the 41 Americans under attack in Benghazi by likely al qaeda terrorists were to be left to fend for themselves (die), while special forces were ready to save them from Sigonella, and former SEALs with machine guns and expertise were a mile away? - for starters
Secondly, the mission of these folks in Benghazi, which is still a question mark, was also to be covered up.
Then they'll kill him via a traffic accident, Breitbart heart attack, or suicide. Or they will pay him handsomely to go away. Or they will drag out a Tawana Brawley to claim that he's a racist rapist.
A ridiculous story will be concocted and the MSM will just nod their collectiv-ist heads and do whatever massah soros tells them to.
Maybe he should be taken into a witness protection program and secreted away somehwere in a foreign country to be secretly brought to testify as a surprise.
Maybe that has to do with the wisdom of our age, better perception. lol
So happy to see you KNOW he is not "STUPID, lol Neither did I and others. DUTY CALLED and he's stepping up.....
HE'S TESTIFYING...........I know your excited about that, and that's a good thing.
“Krauthammer: White House ‘Held Affair Over Petraeus’s Head’ For Favorable Testimony On Benghazi”
Wow, Charlie! Nothin’ gets past you, does it? Now we know why you get paid the big bucks. (oh, brother)
“Petraeus’ being forced to resign one week after the election”
Wasn’t it one DAY — maybe two? Today is one week after the election.
“Impeachable?”
Impeachment means nothing. A slap on the hand. Removal from office, trial for murder, and life in prison would be the fair outcome. Clinton was impeached and I don’t see him suffering. It’s a joke.
They cant put a anything thats not true on the obomaphone
Yeah maybe so. The whole thing stinks of corruption. I thought the CIA would be better than the WH at disinformation but looks like they can’t touch O’s abilities. He’s in the wrong profession.
I hear you and agree....but here is what I don’t get...why is the fact that our gov/Obama left men to die not enough on it’s face???????
This has already been established as fact.
And no one cares...Romney did not make a stink about it, nor did the voters.
So what is left to cover-up?
We’ll see... I’ll eat my words if he man’s up..
If Not... he’s like Sean Penn with medals.. with a smaller dick..
You mean diverted on Obama’s orders? And did the Amb somehow agree with this strategy, or did he stumble upon it and had to be killed?
And who else knows, and thinks this is a good idea??
Obama has thousands of “journalists” working on his disinformation campaign.
Their propaganda machine is enormous....MSM/DNC/Unions/Hollywood/Academia.
This same machine works AGAINST the CIA, and other American interests daily.
