I thought he would be a formidable (R) candidate for 2016 and wondered WTH Obama was doing appointing him to CIA.

If the admin knew about the affair then that civil appointment was absolutely stellar quasi-dirty bank-shot politics.

Petraeus would be relatively safe inside the Army, but going civil he's more exposed to FBI background checks.

And D/CIA was an 'offer he couldn't refuse' LOL.

The media knows that the public enjoys their propaganda with a good dose of sexual intrigue heaped on it. Nothing new really.

The story and all of it's sexual overtones is apparently better than exposing what really is the reason for Petreus being shoved out to pasture.

NMA is great. You don't even need to know Chinese to appreciate it.

Jill Kelly could probably walk right in to the part of Cruella DeVille in an off-broadway production.

An interesting detail.

His affair does not matter, but if indeed he used Outlook client to send Gmail, well his incompetence does matter.

My, my. It looks this Ms Kelley tried to use her Petraeus connections to try and get a 80 million dollar kickback.

Y'all didn't catch the basic trick they were using to "send" emails.

A shared gmail account, and only composed messages without sending. So each would login and check the drafts folder.
