David Petraeus resigns as CIA Director over extramarital affair

That was completely unexpected. I had heard speculation he was resigning and what I thought was that is was the beginning of a movement towards a possible 2016 candidacy, which I thought very exciting. A great shame

But I do feel that affairs are more than a good reason to disqualify one from service. If one cannot maintain their fidelity and loyalty to the person they swore to "to hold, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health," then how on earth can they be expected to be constant or loyal to anything (which is everything) less?

It's a great shame, but it was the only proper course of action.

Well, I'll be damned. The title of the Petraeus biography that Broadwell woman was writing is "All In"!

This is the funniest thing I've read all week.

This is emerging to be the funniest affair in a long time.



His mother... erm wife.

Looks like MoveOn.org was right all along:

LOL, I was just thinking of that. It was pretty stupid how Congress voted to condemn MoveOn.

No it wasn't. This has nothing to do with that.
