CIA Director David Petraeus is resigning because of affair

CIA Director former Gen. David Petraeus is resigning because of an extramarital affair.

As I depart Langley, I want you to know that it has been the greatest of privileges to have served with you, the officers of our Nation's Silent Service, a work force that is truly exceptional in every regard. Indeed, you did extraordinary work on a host of critical missions during my time as director, and I am deeply grateful to you for that.

hmmmmm. Interesting.

And I had heard just this morning that he would be one of the few top guys to stay with Obama.

Who else is going? Hillary, right after the inaguration. Holder is still mulling over an exit, might be fishing for private industry offers. Janet Napolitano is supposedly going to take Holder's place. Panneta should stay another year since he was just moved.

And possibly Joe Biden might leave before the end of his term.

Just wait 5 minutes, and Toad will post a thread saying it's Obama's fault that he had the affair.

Better, I thought having an affair was an asset for Democrats in the White House, or was that only Clinton, Kennedy, LBJ, and FDR?

Obama is such a slacker, or maybe his Monica hasn't been revealed yet. Didn't that come out for Bill until the second term?

When did Bush's affair come out, or was he a "slacker" too?

Gak - who would want to mess around with Bush??? That's scary!!!

If you have seen Petraeus's wife, you would understand why he strayed. She looks like his mom.

Fred, you're a tiresome PoS...and you need some new material...

I know. Sleeping around on your wife is no longer a moral failing to Democrats. Hilary stood by her man.

And if you want have a laugh before the weekend, read [url=http://www.cracked.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;]www.cracked.com[/url] article about the wierd sex habits of presidents. LBJ was a freaky dude who liked to expose himself before negotiations.

Okay, I'm confused...I thought this was about Patraeus. We're back on the election?
