Cia director david petraeus submits letter of resignation

[ABikerSailor]

whose going to investigate the leaks from , say the osama take down, that was in May...? or all of the leaks from state and the military over the last 8 weeks ala Benghazi?

and how about an investigation as to why we had to wait till after the election to learn that Iran, in intl. airspace tried to shot down one of our predators?

I guess you missed the point about drone missions being classified, din't ya? It TAKES TIME to decide to declassify something, hence the delay of a week.

And, do you have actual news site links for your leaks?

 

[shock]

Oh, come on.

The birds and the bees do it.

Washington did it while privates froze.

Ike did it between rubbers.

JFK had back problems but hard as it was still managed to stand up and followed his father's advice by having his ashes hauled each night .

Bill did it and by "it" I mean like Clara Bow did "It" in and out of taxis and with Charles Farnesworth, or whatever his name was.

And Wikipedia claims that FDR did it and there is some indication he did it while swimming.

Anyway, Wikipedia lists page on page of doings, such as the following:

Petraeis held high office but not near as high as that of POTUS
so who other than most Americans
believe Petraeus was removed from office for having sex with some unnamed lady --- or man --- of low or high repute.

Its a mystery as deep as the one that asks why Obama had to call Cameron in order to receive the UK's re-election congratulation.

And Petraeus got off easy --- for, who knows, --- he could have been rendered whores-de-combat and laid in a boat with a hole in it that got shoved off into a river somewhere.

SHOCKLEY

Oh, they tried to shoot down an unmanned machine. How dare they?

Paula Broadwell - The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - 01/25/12 - Video Clip | Comedy Central

She is hot and smart and I could see why Petreus would be attracted to her.

This is a tragedy. Right Wing nutballing aside (and I'm sure we'll hear a lot of it), Petreus has served our country well for decades, and it's sad to see him have to go out on this note.

 

[blackhawk]

Oh well the only thing I will say is I heard the affair was with the woman who did his biography which was titled All In a title I find somewhat amusing given what we now know.

And, do you have actual news site links for your leaks?

oh right, in 48 hours they leaked tons of osama take down information, but a drone getting shot at intl airspace requires how long?


which leaks? you mean the leaks from the Benghazi issue?

 

[Againsheila]

Ah right, so Petraeus has invented this story about his infidelity so he can use it as an excuse to resign?

lol, move over birthers.

What does marital fidelity have to do with the job of CIA director? He might have had an affair, but that of itself seems to be no reason to resign. Nobody cares and he wasn't running for election.

What does marital fidelity have to do with his job? For one thing, if he was keeping it secret and didn't want it to come out, he could be blackmailed for secrets, I mean........after all, he IS the DIRECTOR of the CIA.

As a matter of fact, in the military, if you have really bad credit, or have things that pop up on your security screening that could be used to compromise you, they will deny you access to classified information. Ever been through a Top Secret security screening? I have, and let me tell you..........it's pretty thorough, and in some cases where a person has access to SCI, they are screened every year.

As far as who the other woman is? Really simple...........it's that chick that wrote his biography while he was in Iraq and spent a lot of time with him. The FBI is currently investigating her to see if she could have somehow had "improper access" (meaning he could have been compromised by her) to Petraeus.

So..................is infidelity a big deal? Yep, especially when you're dealing with very highly classified material like a CIA Director does.

Oh..............and for the record.................you CAN be fired from the CIA for infidelity.

You mean Clinton could have been blackmailed for secrets??? Do you think the President doesn't deal with highly classified information everyday? Too bad you can't fire the president for infidelity.

I do not understand why this is a big deal and President Clinton and Monica wasn't.

Wasn't the original title supposed to be "All In - my experiences with a military staff"?

First off...............who's gonna be able to get close enough to him? His calls are screened and he's surrounded by Secret Service 24/7.

Second............if he actually WAS to be blackmailed, how long do you think it would take before some federal agency was breathing down their necks?

Besides..............the amount of time spent with Monica was MUCH LESS than what this lady spent with Petraeus.

The thing to keep your eye on kiddies... is who they put in charge of the CIA. I don't know what Patreaus' testimony has to do with all this, maybe nothing, maybe something. But who's running the CIA right now and what's stopping them from running the shredders from now until next week?

The Deputy Director is running the CIA, and common sense is keeping the paper shredders at bay.

Try again nutjob.

good question so, lets play that game here, when did robert muller know of the affair, and when and how did he tell....

and I have to say, I know you're in the tank for the dems, but you're drowning. so, a affair with the pres.is less of an issue than an affair wiht the cia chief? really?

A garden variety extra-marital affair was no impediment to Patreaus doing his job. Only fools would buy that load of horseshit. He's not elected and he's too far up the food chain to be viewed as a security threat. It's no coincidence that all this went down only days before he was supposed to testify to Congress. Just because you leftists are clueless morons doesn't mean the rest of us must emulate your example.

Dunno if he knew or not, dunno when he found out about it if at all.

Is an affair with the President less of an issue than the CIA director? Yes, because all the president going to end up with is embarrassment and the opposition party calling for their skull. And, besides that, they're pretty much in the limelight anyway, so secret meetings and stuff like that are pretty hard to come by (especially with the Secret Service dogging your every move). The CIA director can actually sell this country out badly, as they AREN'T in the limelight and secret meetings are one of their specialties.

Do you even understand how security clearances work? I do. Spent 20 years in the U.S. Navy as a Personnelman, and had to deal with them DAILY.

And............since those lower down on the ladder ARE fired if something like this comes up, don't you think it's a bit hypocritical to fire them while keeping an affair of your own going?

as far as damage, you simply have to be kidding. if they sell out, they sell out.

so as to the threat, the cia director has access to more sensitive information that could casue damage to the country? really? and the cia director can sell his country out but a pres. can't? hummm, sounds to me like you're making a character judgment and thats not quite holding water, it all depends on what pressure one man can stand, or not....we know Clinton lied, hummm?

[Mad Scientist]

Great thread! I love watching all you guys sound off on yer own little "conspiracy theories"! Isn't that really where this thread should be?

 

[Charles_Main]

I'm Sorry but when you are Director of the CIA you are privy to the most sensitive intel. What the man knows could get a lot of people killed. You do not put yourself in any position that someone could use to compromise you.

That said the man gave his whole life to service of his country. I have nothing but respect for him. We all make mistakes.
