He’s a “bad guy” if he went along with hussein/jarrett/huma’s wag the dog gone wrong and he’s an equally “bad guy” letting the admin get away with it if he isn’t screaming from the top of the tallest tower IF he’s being blackmailed. Forget his retirement and his wife’s make believe job. He swore to protect America and that should be at the top of his duty list.
No, parse Petaeus words from the first testimony. He said that he knew it was a terrorist attack, but that other reports were coming in from top security officials.
Those top security officials are his boss, Clapper and Panetta.
By the time that Petraeus had testified the first time, it was already obvious that they were going to try to blame Petraeus for the “bad intelligence”. Now, we know how they got him to testify the way they did. They claimed that the Al Qaeda connection was classified and although the news was already out, I would bet that they warned him that disclosing all the facts about the Al Qaeda connection and the White House knowledge of the connection was classified. Petraeus had to dance around the details.
