Petraeus Resigns. Cites Extramarital Affair

Dreamsglore wrote:I think it would be dishonest to say married people aren't attracted to others no matter how much you love your spouse.It takes a lot of character not to cheat in certain situations. Men are very visual beings and are attracted as well as women to more attractive people.People think they have solid marriages until it happens to them. Most men given an opportunity to have sex w/ someone they are attracted to and knowing they won't be found out...will do it. You can sit there all day and spout all the moral reasons you want why they won't but I believe you would be wrong.History has shown this.

This story just gets weirder every day.

A lot of military retirees hate former Colorado Congreswoman Pat Schroeder for helping to author that law.

According to AP, the CIA is now stating they do not have or run a secret prison/torture chamber in Libya. Yeah, we're supposed to believe them, just like we were supposed to believe Petraeus ...

If they were running it, it was under Obama's watch.

Could well be President Barack Hussein Obama since General Petraeus' mistress said in a speech to the University of Denver that prisoners were being held at the Benghazi site. Something President Obama signed and Executive Order prohibited when he took office. You know, like he closed GITMO and moved all those prisoners to the United States and gave them Constitutional rights.

Some 65% of married men in this country have had an affair at some time during their marriage. They did a survey.

Which would also mean 65% of married women have as well.

Only of the women they cheated with were married which is very doubtful.

I am not saying I am a chick magnet, but I never wore a wedding ring, and it often got me into very difficult situations which were embarassing. If I felt strongly about another woman, I would have gone to my wife and talked about my attraction. The idea of lying, is not different to me than cheating my customers, or walking into a store and taking something......the rationalization for the behavior could never justify the adventure.

I kept my vows not out of some great sacrifice to get laid regularly by younger women, rather by a belief that my actions would have simply been dishonest. If I needed something, I would have communicated the same to my life partner, and if she said go for it.....I would probably have been a dog.....but we are simply happy, and in the end it is not that complicated to understand that happiness is between the ears.

You know damn well it was NIMBY Republicans who blocked the closing of GITMO.

I can't quite wrap my head around that one.

Somebody, please explain to me why news pundits are all lauding Petraeus as a great, straight shooting general. His "surge" accomplished zero in Iraq -- where we pulled out with our tail between our legs, his forecasts for success in Afghanistan were as meaningful and credible as his marriage vows.

Hang the little bast_ard!

Are you feeling better? We've missed your...insight.

We fully understand why you would consider the freedom of 29 million people to mean having accomplished nothing. Shameful.

Here's what THIS administration had to say about Iraq.

"Could Be One of the Great Achievements of This Administration" The vice president said he’d been to Iraq 17 times and visits the country every three months or so. "I know every one of the major players in all the segments of that society" he said. "It's impressed me. I've been impressed how they have been deciding to use the political process rather than guns to settle their differences."
