First of all I'm sure most are in post-election blahs. I know I have almost disengaged since Tuesday night because I needed a rest. Anything the right says or does right now will just be sour grapes. By next week no one will remember Gen. Petreaus. Let them melt down.

The real action is on the budget and tax code. Nice opening chess move by the President by the way.

saying the Obama admin. found out about his affair and was trying to use it as "blackmail" to pressure him into lying about Benghazi for them and also that Stevens was there in Libya for a gun running operation Patraeus was in charge of. I'm sure there will be a lot more!

Should shut-down Fox, Slate any of these media gangs who had any knowledge of, or received classified info.

They are so desperate to make this into a big deal. But it could backfire on them. They wanted Petreous to run one day, it was even bounced around that Romney should pick him for vp. I think there is alot more to this story.

Remember how upset conservatives were when Moveon.org's play on Petraeus' name? Well, Petraeus may not have betrayed the American people, but he sure as hell betrayed his wife.
