What’s YOUR problem with Petraeus? Was he suggesting a tryst with a loved one of yours? Note I waited until at least your fourth post to respond. You seem to have precious little of relevance to get you worked up.

My problem with Petraeus comes from the fact that I’m a Marine with a clearance. I’m retired from active duty, but work for DOD as a contractor. If I or any of the guys I work with do what he did, we would be put in prision. As a General Officer he had to know that what he was doing was against the law. He should be held accountable the same way I would be. How many soldiers did he recommend for court martial for doing the same crap he did? I’m sure there were a few. He got off easy. His life wasn’t ruined, he still gets a nice pension and he is paid well for speaking engagements. That would not be the case for you or I.
