Google David Ritter. Then STFU.
It doesn't really matter. What does matter is that Obama has know about it since the FBI discovered it. There is no way the FBI would keep that from the president. The question is why would Obama sit on it until now? Why expose him only days before his testimony on Benghazi.Skjellyfetti wrote:I could be wrong, but it sounds like the affair began after he became CIA director.CitadelGrad wrote:The FBI knew about this before he became the CIA director.

Poor choice of words on my part. If Petraeus was vetted by Romney this would have come out and he would have been off the list. I have no idea if he really was vetted.BlueHen86 wrote:We do?HI54UNI wrote:They were some stories that Romney considered him for the VP slot. Now we know why he didn't get the nod.

I agree that the timing is fishy, but it's quite a stretch to think that Romney knew about this months ago.
Do you know what the exact timeline is for this? You've clearly already convicted Obama, do you have any facts? Or are you basing everything on your imagination?CitadelGrad wrote:It doesn't really matter. What does matter is that Obama has know about it since the FBI discovered it.

It doesn't take much imagination to believe that Obama used the information to blackmail him into lying before Congress. Petraeus apparently refused to lie and decided to remove Obama's leverage by going public about his infidelity, himself.
Obama clearly has much to hide about Benghazi and his Syrian gun running operation. Hillary has legal counsel and refuses to testify before Congress. Petraeus resigns and will not testify (until subpoenaed). The wagons are being circled around Obama and he's looking a little desperate. He survived Fast & Furious, but Benghazi is a hell of a lot bigger. He might not survive this.
We sell weapons to anybody who can move enough drugs to pay the bill and we out our own CIA agents. So tell me why this is such a big deal?CitadelGrad wrote:It doesn't really matter.

Thought the part about him having morals would make it pretty obvious.BlueHen86 wrote:Huh? What is stopping them? We have a donk President now, and Petraeus resigned.

Here is what I know. The attack last more than 7 hours. Within minutes after the attack began, DoD, CIA, State and AfriCom all knew of the attack. Within an hour after the beginning of the attack, we had at least one drone overhead providing live feeds of the attack. Transmissions from inside the compound were being sent throughout the attack until the compound was overrun. There is no possible way that Obama did not know of the situation shortly after Petraeus, Panetta and Clinton knew of it. I have read that SecDef was in the White House briefing Obama about an hour after the attack. Obama had access to the same live video feed that everyone else had. He also had access to the same emails and secure communications that everyone else had.BlueHen86 wrote:Do you know what the exact timeline is for this?

There are currently 7 SEAL's that are in trouble for having helped in the development of the newly released video game; Medal of Honor: Warfighter.

When/if a SEAL writes a book about Petraeus' indiscretion, I'll read it!
I made SEALs fold in cycling. Actually quite fun. There is something about doling out versus receiving punishment. Of course if it had involved guns, I don't think I would have fared too well.BlueHen86 wrote:In other words, their lips are sealed.Grizo406 wrote:

If Petraeus knew that the news of his extramarital affair was gonna' come out any way, why didn't he just keep his position at the CIA? Then, when the time came for him to testify in front of Congress, he could have said what he need to about what when down in Benghazi?
Ugh. Long day.
