Hopefully, if he testifies, he will do so with an acute awareness of duty, honor, history and eternity as his guides.
I wonder whether he was intimidated into the first Congressional testimony with the affair being leverage?
After some rethinking, perhaps Petraeus realized that a flawed but honorable reputation is better than treason.
I believe Petraeus is now holding the ultimate trump card of impeachment. Even if Obama escapes the Senate and isn’t removed, he will be forever tainted.
This is one thing the MSM cannot spin, even with a not guilty verdict. Every American knows what the responsibilities are for a CIC. If it is proven as suspected that Obama refused Cross Border Authority and left Americans to die for a coverup, he will forever be convicted in the hearts of the public.
As to the stand down order, perhaps none was needed. If the President is the only person able to grant Cross-border authority and he didn't then his saying that he did all that was possible to save our men is half true. Of course he has his fingers crossed behind his back with the rest of the sentence......We did everything possible without the CIC's Permission to cross an international border without the entered country's permission. Why doesn't t anyone in the media or any Republican senators like McCain ask him about CBA?
