What has Patreaus got to loose at this point?

Could Jay sit down after his creampie?
I think not.
The General has some serious explaining to do.
His pension!
You know what really angers me, smoothsailing-
According to this article, Issa is saying that Obama and Hillary are not targets, which to me seems preposterous.
I do not want to jump the gun on this and get angry about it too early, but I have really had my fill of wimp republicans.
It seemed obvious that Petreaus was being blackmailed to go along with the White House version of the attack. He did what anyone who is being blackmailed should do, if they can, simply announce the dirty laundry and resign.
It’s much better to take the consequences of a personal indiscretion than lie under oath about Benghazi and go down with an impeached president.
Curl sees way more in this than I do. I didn’t think Carney seemed ashen, scared, worried or much different at all. Did he seem worried? Did I just miss it?
I doubt Petraeus will offer up anything useful. I don’t have faith in these people any longer.
Full blown by Friday?...I’m doubting it but hope they prove me wrong.
Weird. I start calling Paid “Midway Carney” barker by his true idiom, to illustrate the primary motivation behind his cheap suit act and New everyone is following.
Happy Benghazi Dam Break...may the shiite hit the fan!
my perhaps overly optimistic view of what Issa is saying here is that the investigation into Benghazi isn’t a political witch hunt meant to have consequences for political purposes. Instead Issa is saying the investigation is about actually finding out the truth about what happened the night four Americans were killed in Benghazi and why the American people were lied to about its root cause.
Issa has got to say that now. Ultimately, Obama gave the order to stand down. The responsibility is his. Issa knows that. He is going to inflict the death of a thousand cuts. This is just beginning. Let the chips fall.
“20 hours or so to get there.” I guess since it was “the middle of the night” the military would have to wait until the next business day to respond. God save us.
I understand why Issa would say that. He’s building a case. Why give away the ending?
He sure does, but I bet he knows a heck of a lot that can make Clinton and Obama squirm!
Damn, I hope you are right.I have no faith in any of the sumbitches in politics.NONE
You don’t want the press to start calling this a WITCH HUNT. Because the witch has already been found! This is an exploration of what went wrong and why and how to prevent it from happening again. Incompetence exposure. And whatever else may be found under the rubble.
