Well,first you had the Petraeus the left hated while he was under Bush to the beloved Petraeus now that he worked under Obama. The left would love to slam Petraeus for being a hypocrite on family value but since he worked for Obama,that´s out the window. The thing is,the average person know very little about him except for some well crafted headlines here and there,no different than Obama getting kudos for making a hollow appearance after Sandy.

I´m not even sure if Petraeus deserves credit for the surge. I think General Keane was the real mastermind behind it.

That´s his wife? Looks like his mum.

No wonder he played away.

Im not sure why his having an affair should be an issue? Wasn´t it sex between consenting adults after all? At least thats been the democrat position since before Clinton became president. Why should we care?

OR..........is this suddenly as issue so that Petraeus can be discredited before he testifies? Suddenly, America should NOT believe what a cheater says....Unless its coming from a Clinton or Kennedy.

None of this would affect his chances for the presidency, so long as he runs as a Democrat...

The biggest heroes of the Democratic Party have and are having many affairs. All Kennedy men and Bill Clinton among thousands. On the left it is a lifestyle choice, vote getter and badge of honor. Why is it a problem for General Petraeus?

David Axelrods favorite opponent killer is anything having to do with sex. If I were POTUS and wanted to burn the Constitution, then rub the ashes in the face of the American People, I would want someone like David Petraeus OUT OF THE WAY!

From the script department: If it´s a Republican it´s a a story of betrayal. If It´s a Democrat it´s a story of redemption. Got it?

Even under the current circumstances, Petraeus is more presidential timber than the current twig that is preparing to sully the White House for another four years. Did "Mr. Get A Lewinsky Under His Desk In The Oval Office" get questioned about his presidential timber?

Petraeus was a recognized American hero but he started drinking the Øbama koolaid and look what happened? Everything Øbama touches turns to rubbish. I am wondering if alcohol played any part in Petraeus´ downfall? Once important people in high places start drinking their integrity seems to fall apart. One thing I really liked about Romney was he was not a drinker of alcohol. That says a lot in todays world.

Comments like reply #2 simply reinforce the old joke: Why does the average man prefer beauty to brains? Because the average man can see better than he can think.

Fortunately the moral man is above average.

Being an Army mom and living in an Army town, I have heard dozens of Holly Petraeus stories from military families she has personally touched. In recent years she has worked to protect military families from financial fraud through Military Better Business Bureau initiatives and fighting other finance fraud schemes against military families. She’s been a blessing to the General and to the Military. If, at 60, she’s not runway ready, that has little effect on her value as a woman… if you’re a real man.
