CIA Director Petraeus resigns less than 1 week before he was set to testify in the Benghazi terrorist debacle.

There has got to be a "conspiracy" here, right?

Resignation or not they still ought to force him to testify....🌫

^. This.

I don't think there is a conspiracy but do think the election factored in on timing.

He still is on the hook, if there is a hook.

Subpoena his bony "winning the will of the muslims with our tax money" ass. [ram27bat]

Good Morning America "woke up" two days after the election and postulated for the first time there could be some kind of cover-up in the Libya thingie.

We all see what we want to.

This press conspiracy thing is one giant blinder.

Nobody wanted to save those poor people in the Lybian consulate. They were collateral campaign damage.
But on a positive note, the video criminal mastermind behind the riot was caught and given an year in jail. Mission accomplished.

[sarcasm]

Yep.....make him talk.....even if he is a "hostile witness".

Well according to the military code of conduct he should be courtmarshalled......waint n see if that happens.

He's retired, not a military man anymore, military court has no jurisdiction...

Just a little CYA.

Who cares?

Agreed. Back in the day I saw several military careers go down in flames over affairs. As long has there's no supervisor-subordinate relationship, it always seemed to me that tearing a marriage/family apart was punishment enough, it's just stupid to pile on criminal charges and job loss for sex between consenting adults. That said, Patraeus always seemed to be an arogant horse's ass so haha.

Who cares if the CIA director is making himself suseptable to blackmail.

I think that my concern is not whether he was being butt-fxcked in a wig wearing a WAC uniform by a lady with fake sideburns but who was the (greater) LIAR & who failed the heroic Benghazi victims- Obama, Clinton, or him.

Circular logic. If he wasn't going to lose his job, he'd be less susceptible.

Not sure I understand.
So you're saying he quit because he was responsible (or sacrificed himself as a scapegoat)? Otherwise, he would have remained as CIA Director-in-hump?

My bad. i was replying to #16 and your post got there first.
