OVER AN AFFAIR?

U.S. President Barack Obama accepted the resignation of General David Petraeus as director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) late Friday after the veteran military commander acknowledged exercising “very poor judgment” in carrying on an extramarital affair.

And yes, if you believe that explanation then we’ve got some oceanfront property in Nebraska and a mountaintop home in Florida you might be interested in purchasing.  Seriously … no one gets canned for having affairs anymore.

So why is Petraeus really leaving?  The most common explanation involves the scandal surrounding a September 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya that left four Americans dead – including a U.S. Ambassador.

Remember that scandal?  Of course you don’t … the mainstream media put it in a drawer for two months leading up to the U.S. presidential election.

Rumor has it the 60-year-old commander wasn’t interested in being the fall guy for Benghazi … and as a result of his resignation he will no longer have to answer questions about the debacle before congressional investigators.

Really?  That’s all it takes to get a pass on a congressional investigation?

Petraeus was appointed by Obama to lead U.S. forces in Afghanistan in June 2010 after Gen. Stanley McChrystal was relieved of his command.  In April 2011 Obama tapped Petraeus to lead the CIA when its prior director Leon Pannetta took over as Secretary of Defense.

Petraeus’ wife, Holly, is a bureaucrat with Obama’s new Consumer Financial Protection bureaucracy.

I find it extremely unlikely that anyone would claim they had an extramarital affair in order to avoid being “the fall guy.” That kind of admission ruins lives. Why not just explicitly state that you’re resigning so that you can’t be the scapegoat? Or just resign? Or, more logically, stick around and defend/explain your actions?

Adultery is an offense under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Even though it’s not a crime for civilians, it’s a bigger deal for Petraeus. I guarantee you he is resigning because he got caught and was about to get fired over it.

I agree with your first paragraph, but would add that Petraeus retired from the Army before becoming CIA Chief, thus he is not subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

A career soldier like Petraeus NEVER gets away from the UCMJ, whether he/she is active or not.

When he discovered he was under investigation by the FBI Petraeus saw the writing on the wall.

Contrary to the opinions of some, everything is NOT a conspiracy.

It appears this info was available for some time. I’m sure O and his people were aware and turned a blind eye, kept the info secret until the right opportunity arose for it to be used to pressure (blackmail) the General into doing something he would not otherwise consider.
Then along came the murder of 4 Americans in Bengazi! The time had come to use the trump card!

Bonhoeffer November 9, 2012 at 4:47 pm

Ths is about the dumbest piece that I’ve read in a long time. If a man of Petraeus accomplishments , personality, and reputation is leaving for other reasons, he would hardly make up the tawdry explanation of adultery. The oft-used ” to spend more time with my family” would serve nicely whether he left voluntarily or not.

Agree with Bonhoeffer. Your speculation as to why General Petraeus may have resigned does not make sense. Giving no reason for resigning or giving the real reason for resigning would have made much more sense IF there was another reason for resigning other than an adulterous affair.

Did this same “Republican Operative” complain about the fact that Mitt Romney wasn’t psychotically right wing enough, too? Are you high? Did Tuesday really literally fry your brain waves? Here’s why DP had to resign…because he cheated on his wife. If it came out, and it was going to, and he did not get ahead of the message he would have to answer questions about Benghazi (which is not a scandal, and since it happened in LIBYA is something that SOUTH CAROLINA republican should probably keep his mouth shut about) and why he’s cheating on his wife.

He is not subject to the UCMJ per se, but he does draw retirement pay from the army, and after thirty plus years of commissioned service, he’s getting A LOT of it. You can be recalled to active duty from retirement and subjected to processing and punishment, but that is not going to happen. What would be the benefit?

The conspiracy theory as I understand according to other speculators is that Petraeus was given a choice:

1. Take the Benghazi blame

2. Resign due to an affair

I dont take any position on it, not enough info…but just commenting on what I am reading.

Why does it not make sense that he would resign over an affair? As the head of the CIA the notion that he could be extorted by his lover or anyone *in the know* is a MAJOR security issue and can not be allowed to continue(unlike most pols/bureaucrats).

I just think he got caught up in the FBI/CIA/Military prostitution scandals personally. I mean shit, one of the Black Jesus^s personal guards was carrying on as such…tell me that isnt a security risk.

After it all came out earlier this year I am sure the agencies involved started checking everyone…then *bingo*…the big boss gets hit too.

Bill November 9, 2012 at 6:25 pm

Look here is why Republicans go so ballistic over Benghazi. It was to have been the October surprise. It was to have assured Mitt a victory in the election. This ultimately became a really important part of their campaign strategy.

Mitt’s operatives and Fox News had this all worked out. They coordinated an attack on Obama to begin in second debate. Mitt would level the cover up charge against Obama in the debate; Fox News would pick up the story from there and start beating the drums; Mitt had insiders ready to turn over cover up stories to Bob Woodward; and the RNC would pushed out the cover up/scandal/investigation talking points to their political operatives.

Then it fell apart. The attack in the second debate backfired. Fox began the cover up/scandal drum beat, and no one bit. The insider didn’t show up for the meeting with Bob Woodward, and when he or some new insider finally did meet with Woodward he had no real evidence of any cover up. In short they had nothing.

What really happened is most Americans understood there was a failure to properly protect Americans, but no one with common sense thought it was malicious. No one really believed Obama or Clinton or any one else in government intentionally allowed that to happen or would not have done anything in their power to prevent it from happening. It was a mistake. People were killed. It was a tragedy. But it was no more than happened to Reagan with the 200 Marines in Lebanon.

Good loyal Americans died, the Republicans attempted to politically capitalize on the tragedy and failed. Statements like the ones by the Republican operative in this story are just anger and frustration the plan did not work.

People die on every President’s watch. Especially people in dangerous places. How many people died on Bush’s watch? Starting with 9-11.

Also, how does resigning protect Petraeus from testifying? If the House of Representatives wants to subpoena him to testify they can. Private citizens are not shielded from Congressional subpoena. If the House does not subpoena him, they don’t want to know what he has to say. If they do he has to testify, plead the fifth, or do what Bush’s folks did; invoke executive privilege.

That photograph shows her wearing some funny lookin’ sort of dress or shirt what goes all the way up to her chin. And her arms are showin’. And some of her back is showin’. But I can’t see no beauty in them photos. Specially, suspecting the taste of the General, I’m sure he’d like some big titties, well, they ain’t there. So I believe the General made a mistake with an affair with this lady. If he wanted lots of titties and legs and ass and all that he should have gotten Kim Kardashina to write his history. She don’t wear no under pants, and she does go down on black fellas, and she got a surgery, but sheee-zaam, he cudda done better! Now he’s in the dog house fo’ sure!

Actually, when I read the story on Petraeus a little while ago, I was actually thinking the same thing that this article suggests. I told my husband about the Petraeus story, and he said it’s probably over Bhengazi and not some bimbo. So, we both agree with this article.

Yes, someone stating that they are resigning due to one thing, and it being an entirely different reason, happens in politics. Spouses and other loved ones understand this going in. Cover-ups are a complicated thing. This isn’t some local yokel trying to smear a local candidate. This is a man using every means possible to avoid being questioned regarding Bhengazi and the President of The United States. And I am, by no means, a conspiracy theorist.

Think about it. The timing really IS impeccable.

Actually, if anyone would take the time to go read a real news report, you would know that it was not Libya, but rather the fact that the woman he was having an affair with was a biographer who at the very least attempted to gain access to his email.

I heard the reason he fell for this woman so hard is that she could do fifty pushups.

The reason the intelligence community holds someone who has an extra martial affair is such low esteem is not because it is a moral issue; it is because it leaves a person open for black mail. This woman’s motivation no doubt was to get some juicy information she could become famous for after she shared it with the world.

The General saw that his stellar career was about to become tarnished and decided, with a little help maybe, that he needed to fall on his sword. It is a shame that this happened to him because of his service, but more importantly, because he will almost certainly lose his wife who is probably worth 10 times what this woman is worth.

The CEO-in-waiting of the defense contractor who declined to issue WARN Act layoff notices on the urging of the Obama administration — sequestration-related notices mandated by law that would have gone out just before the election — has resigned, citing an affair.

Christopher E. Kubasik, 51, today resigned from his role as vice chairman, president and chief operating officer (COO), effective immediately, Lockheed Martin announced. Kubasik was set to become CEO in January.

The General should remain right where he is and if there is such a thing as a Fornication Medal he should be pinned on national TV.

It is obvious that Petraeus knows what to do with a damn pecker in comparison to those fucking politicians, moral police and media whores who spend 24/7 sticking it up the taxpayer’s ass.

She was homecoming queen and valedictorian of her class and she went on to graduate from West Point. She has a masters from Harvard and is working on a PHD from Kings College in London. She is a Lt. Col in the Army reserve.

She looks damn good in a skirt as well as a flack jacket. I’m sure the General P. had to pinch himself every time he was with her. The General was thinking he had the best wife in the world and the best mistress to boot– it can’t continue like this forever — life is too damn complicated sometimes.

Petraeus Started Affair Last Year to Cover Up Benghazi, Says Conspiracy Theorist

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) — The scandal involving former C.I.A. director David Petraeus took a startling twist today, as a leading right-wing conspiracy theorist claimed that Gen. Petraeus initiated his affair with author Paula Broadwell last year to avoid testifying about Benghazi this week.

“Petraeus is a master of strategy, capable of playing several chess moves ahead,” said Harland Dorrinson, who has a website. “Clearly, he knew it would be handy to be embroiled in an extra-marital affair if the situation in Benghazi someday went south and he was forced to testify about it.”

By destroying his career, reputation, and possibly his personal life, Mr. Dorrinson said, “General Petraeus achieved exactly what he set out to do: skip testifying about Benghazi. All I can say is, mission accomplished, General. Pretty smooth.”

Even though “the reason Petraeus started his affair is obvious to anyone with a brain in his head,” Mr. Dorrinson says, he does not expect the mainstream media to investigate his theory any time soon: “The only person I’ve been able to get interested in this is Karl Rove.”

This Benghazi fixation of the right proves my point above. Fox, Rush and the right wing media are desperate to turn Benghazi into a scandal. Why, because unless they do they were wrong about everything. They even have Lindsay Graham, calling it an issue of national security.

Four Americans who were in the middle of a war zone and political revolution were killed. It was an intelligence and security failure, but its not a matter of national security.

Four non-US Citizens on expired visas and armed with box cutters flying a plan into the headquarters of your nation’s central military command in the middle of your nation’s capital. Now that is an intelligence and security failure of epic proportions and a monumental scandal. Yet not one Fox News analyst, not one Republican demanded an investigation of the President, not one referred to it as a scandal, not one said the deaths of those in the Pentagon on that day and in that airline were on the President’s head.

Why not? Because they are what they are partisan political hacks, desperate to be right about something over the last 4 years. Desperate to create a scandal out of tragedy for their own political reasons.

Now it’s reported that Paula B the recent Mistress, was harassing another one of the General’s possibly alleged women. What is it about these mistresses, some of them married to boot, that they have this manic proprietaryness about their married lovers? They think they are the only lock to their serial adulterer’s key! What is so lacking in them, that they turn so irrationally rabid, whether we are talking Arielle Hunter, Maria Belen Chapur, Camilla Parker Bowles… and now Paula Broadwell? How tragic for all concerned.

Generals may know their craft but still be “stupid” regarding personal OPSEC.

NEVER have an embedded reporter. That’s vanity and soldiers are rarely sophisticated enough to exploit the reporter to their advantage.

Petraus remains subject to the UCMJ and other laws for his actions (depending on his military status at the TIME of the actions) even though he retired from the Army.

FITS need to stop commenting on military matters due to utter ignorance of the subjects. Find some other filler for slow news days. Other posters, at least Google before you spout off “barracks lawyer” myths.

The Right doesn’t “get” that desperate propaganda looks stupid. I must conclude the Right WANTS Obama in office, because their incompetence put him there.
