BREAKING! CIA Director David Petraeus Resigns! | |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 19976094 United States11/09/2012 04:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Obama admin throwing him under the bus over Benghazi, guaranteed! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24637305 Ya, either that or he's taking a dive. Petraeus could only take the fall if he had incriminated himself prior to his resignation. He didn't. In fact, he clearly stated that the CIA gave no such stand down order. Meaning what? Meaning that it goes right to the Oval Office to override any orders of assistance that may have come from the CIA. And this is likely what happened because they were watching the murders take place LIVE! So, he's stepping down - getting out of the way - for what? For what comes next ...taking down Barry O. That's what I mean. It's possible there's some kind of upcoming operation in which the CIA has to play a key role, and he doesn't want to play ball. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1274052 It is the stupidest excuse ever. People only resign for sex after they are caught and it is all over the news and they are humiliated. This guy told everyone himself! Whats up with that? craaazy That is what is so interesting about this - Petraeus has nothing to lose now, but Obama sure does. Interesting times ahead... He would still have to testify. If he knows something, quitting doesn't let him off the hook. Something else is going on.  Howard Dean: Benghazi is a laughable joke.

Quoting: mikebo2 2 months from now Patreus has an unfortunate accident. 2 months later it is leaked by unknown sources that Patreus was behind all the bad info the White House got. During press conference later the White House refuses to say anything bad about Petraus. Nice and clean and NO ONE is the wiser. Why can't things go our way for once?!?!?! |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27401613 United States11/09/2012 04:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How about Holder as CIA dierector? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27228898 Army guys answer this. When you take your oath does that extend past your retirement? You know, the part about defending against enemies both foreign and domestic? 500 Generals and Admirals would be a pretty good horse to back. That's what I was wondering.....of course something like that would likely lead to the entire collapse of the us financial system. To the delight of Hu I wonder? |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 20926074 United States11/09/2012 04:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We know that Patraeus was called in for a one on one meeting with Obama yesterday. Confirmed on Fox News. Patraeus has already gone with the YouTube story thus far. Now that Patraeus doesn't have to answer to Obama, he might be planning on testifying AGAINST him. Might be his own maneuver. John Bolton said Petraeus CAN still testify and will likely be called at some point, if not subpoened. Patraeus may be COUNTING on this. |

| Ralph--a house dog User ID: 25802009 United States11/09/2012 04:54 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | in laymans terms, someone please explain why he resigned? Did he know something? What's the real story behind this? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26075182 Petraeus refused to either a)take the fall for benghazi or other crimes, or b) refused to keep silent any longer on these issues regarding what he knew the administration has done. He was clearly being blackmailed by the admin and he had a decision to make. Being a man with a shred of moral character left, he decided to make his exit- expect fireworks soon. ^this^ But his job isn't finished. The ultimate courage and moral character will be on display if he decides to tell the world the TRUE story, hopefully with others at his side. We can only hope that happens, but he would have concerns that he or his family will be Breitbarted. Convenient deaths have been the case too many times to be discounted. "Who decides?" ---Robert A.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 23804261 United States11/09/2012 04:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Looks like Obama is clearing out the top brass just like other leaders have done. Think Hitler, Lenin etc. If you have been watching there have been at least 4 other high ranking admiral and generals recently removed from the post. The admiral of the Stennis battle group was one. Yes, I think he has big plans for a complete take over of the government and first point of order is to eliminate his opposition. Actually some have suggested a military coup was underway. I guess now that he was reelected the gloves are off and he can pretty much do what he wants. |

I really hope it turns out this way...but, as the O admin has been covering his ass on everything. I am not forgetting about all of the high up military men who have been "let go" over the last few weeks, concering the military coup. Those who try to stand up, are being "let go". CIA P, couldn't be "let go", he was threatened and resigned. But, I hope your theory is correct. |

The buck stops with her on Benghazi - BUT - Obama overrode this in front of the American people during the debates saying it stops with HIM because it plays to his psychological condition to be 'the main man' - so now it's all on his head. And boy...it's going to get ugly now. |

| Renegade (Me too) User ID: 24639180 United States11/09/2012 05:02 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well, I'm sure he did it, but that ain't why he resigned. He's covering for the Kenyan on Benghazi. No, this means he can't be thrown under the bus for Libya. I think he was going to be blackmailed to keep his mouth shut on Libya, and he jumped out in front of it... Sounds logical to me He'll keep quiet. The threat was not about his affair. That is just the cover story. His family was threatened I'm sure. Who is John Galt? |
