It's very odd coming at this time. I don't understand why - backwards typist

why he had to resign over an extramarital affair. Plenty of other government officials have them and don't resign. This man is so respected by everyone and this doesn't make sense, especially since he was a career military officer.

His resignation comes right before the closed door meetings and testimony next week over Benghazi. Can't help but wonder if that has anything to do with it 'cause it sure is strange.

Like those investigations, BWT, I suppose we - are left to watching

from the sidelines until the story ripens a bit. I agree that the timing is curious, but I am sure the explanation will become apparent sooner rather than later. At least Romney can heave a sigh of relief that he didn't pick him as a running mate. Trying to stay positive here.

Benghazi, yes. This is extremely suspicious - and I am a Democrat ! nm

How would hiding behind confessing to an EM affair - help him avoid the inevitable

[ In Reply To ..]
potential revelations that will be coming out of those multiple investigations if the agency is implicated? Why would he chose to drag his wife into this and inflict that kind of devastation and embarrassment on her and their family? Doesn't make sense and is not in line with his character. I think he did what he though was best for the Agency and for the nation.

I don't think the timing is suspicious...sm - JTBB

Whether or not this has anything to do with Benghazi, if he had done this before the election it would have been bad for either party. Pubs were really pushing Benghazi pre election, and just the speculation of the situation would have been bad for dems as it would have put a spotlight on the whole thing. It wouldn't have gone well for pubs either though as Petraeus is one of their own, and if pubs had gone after Petraeus at that time, it would have just led to more division in the party.
I think you hit on something but I really don't want to - backwards typist

say it out loud at this time. I'll keep my thinking to myself and see if that's the reason.

Watching Fox right now. Lt. Col. Ralph Peters is speaking now about this. (I went to school with Ralph-that's one of the reasons I watch Fox when its something to do with military). He also made a career out of the service too and is surprised.
oh, come on...probably Benghazi. Just reported - affair was known long ago !

This affair was not new, but the news comes out now, and he resigns? Something stinks, like BO.
All the stations are full of people from across the spectrum - going on and on about how
[ In Reply To ..]
sad and regrettable this is, for him and for America. I've heard the word "tragic" from several people. He certainly is well regarded. By apparently everybody.
If this is old news, who's the woman? - Is that top secret too? nm

I swear it is a COVERUP. Just like in - Libya with the stupid video. NM

Clinton had an affair and nothing happened to him. Geesh, he can lie all he wants and HE CAN DO NO WRONG IN THE PEOPLE'S EYES.

I agree it is a coverup. If Petraeus is so damned (sm) - LM

honorable, why doesn't he just testify next week instead of waiting to be subpoenaed, which probably won't happen. This has Obama's stink all over it.

Obama throws another one under the bus (sm) - Aunt Sue

saving himself from possible impeachment over Benghazi - What a piece of crap he is.

I take the above post back (sm) - Aunt Sue

[ In Reply To ..]
First they said he didn't have to testify - I didn't realize they meant he didn't have to testify next week. Maybe he threw himself under so he could tell the truth.
Hm-m-m. Thought he was supposed to testify next week. - backwards typist
[ In Reply To ..]
Oops. Just heard he wasn't. But he can be supoenaed [sp] even if a private citizen. So, if he resigned for the reason of not testifying, that won't work.
Yet, here's an article that states he was supposed to testify - backwards typist

BTW, Dana Perino states having an affair when you're a high security personnel are supposedly compromises the security of the country/President.

He was a man of honor and didn't bring this out before the election because he didn't want to muddy the issue at the time everything else was going on. HUH?

Anyway, here's the article:

More than two months after the Sept. 11 attack on the American compound in Benghazi, Libya, key congressional committees will hear next week from CIA Director David Petraeus and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper about the assault, according to sources.

The Intelligence Committees of the Senate and House of Representatives will get testimony from those officials and others at a pair of hearings next Thursday. Both sessions will take place behind closed doors.

The Senate Intelligence Committee will also hear from FBI Deputy Director Sean Joyce, an expert on the agency's counterterrorism and counterintelligence efforts. The FBI has been investigating the attack. Also testifying will be Undersecretary of State for Management Patrick Kennedy, who oversees all department personnel, facilities and operations, and National Counterterrorism Center Director Matt Olsen.

The House Intelligence Committee will also hear from Olsen.

Lawmakers and staff have been receiving briefings from the administration since the attack occurred.Republicans have sharply criticized the Obama administration's response to the attack, which claimed the lives of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. Republicans have suggested that the State Department ignored reasonable requests for tighter security at the compound in the face of attacks and threats on Western facilities in the eastern Libyan city. And they have accused the administration of trying to cover up the nature of the attack by initially pinning blame on Muslim anger at an Internet video ridiculing Islam, rather than acknowledge that the strike was the work of terrorists.

And this changes that plan exactly how? - When he's called, he'll testify. nm

Another big whoop. NOT.
IF he is subpoenaed. If he were that anxious (sm) - LM
[ In Reply To ..]
to testify like he said he was, why not do it next week?

Because he is so respected by everyone, it - seems completely SM

[ In Reply To ..]
out of character that he would humiliate his wife and family to avoid testifying so I disagree with your theory.

Yeah - why not resign on 11/04 or 10/31? - Why not resign the night after?

[ In Reply To ..]
he started the affair? P did not want to discredit the King oF Kenya. Good thing is, P will still have to testify, justnot next week. Just puts a whole new level of stink over the KofK, and the Benghazi lies and cover. They are so incompetent it's sad.
