I ain’t buying it. Marital infidelity grounds for stepping down as a military commander? The dems just won an election running on vaginas, and now they are citing immoral behavior? Who are they kidding? Boilerplate cover for deeper issues.

Scandal? What scandal? There is nothing about a scandal on cnn. :-). There is a senate coverup hearing next week on libya and no one even knows about it. The whole thing is being buried.

"...maybe they should start weeding out duplicitous, phony, hypocritical senior leaders (both enlisted and officer)."

So, where does Colon Bowel fit on that axis?

Petraeus is being set up as the Benghazi fall-guy. Extra marital affairs are matter of course for democrats...certainly tolerated if not celebrated.

I want to see what the woman looks like who is attracted to a trollish looking man.

I agree with you. He came clean to keep (stop) from being blackmailed.

No. I hope we have another George Washington who COOKS OBAMA’S GOOSE and testifies against him on Benghazi. On the downside, we will see 0bama replace the ‘remotely-American’ members of team zero with full-on MARXISTS now. John Kerry in the administration is horrific and it’s only to get worse. Wouldn’t surprise me if Roseanne Barr gets appointed as U.N. Ambassador.

-- Wonder if he already has his lobbyist gig lined up? --

Even if he doesn't, he's a shoo in for one of the jobs in the revolving door business of governing and lobbying.

No kudos to him from me. If he had a concern that his private life made him amenable to blackmail, then he shouldn't have taken the appointment in the first place.

That undercarriage of Obama’s Bus must be clogged with all those corpses of his former friends and allies.

Hmm, something to distract us from the circular firing squad.

So this is what Obama had on him to make him go along with the Bengazi cover-up!

Obviously. He is getting out before it gets any worse.
What a dirty administration. I believe they are making him admit to a marital affair to discredit him from further disclosures.

Communists being replaced by Marxists, Fascists and IslamoNazi’s. I knew 0bama would go ‘mandate on destruction of America’.. Someone please stop this madness! Hey SEALs, penetrating the White House shouldn’t be THAT tough!

Sorry FRiend. I wish Benghazi was going somewhere. Don’t see it happening though.
