Showing Original Post only (View all)This Mornings Soledad O達rien Show, Nails it! "Those people have to know" [View all]
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) of all people brings up the 'real' problem here.... Cantor was informed, but there was also a:
'fiduciary responsibility to tell the Chairman and the ranking member of both the House and Senate of the Intelligence Committee. And it looks like Dianne Feinstein was not informed... something is grossly wrong.
Cantor was the only person on the committee that was told and guess what, he didn't tell the Ranking Democratic Party Members.

Chaffetz on Petraeus: "It's a crime in the military;" something "grossly wrong"
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) responds to the latest developments in David Petraeus' affair and resignation that has widened to include General John Allen.
Rep. Chaffetz says, Youre not going to notify all the Congress, but you do have a fiduciary responsibility to tell the Chairman and the ranking member of both the House and Senate of the Intelligence Committee. And if they were not informed, and it looks like Dianne Feinstein was not informed, then something is grossly wrong. Those people have to know.
He continues, Its a crime in the military. And these are four stars. You dont go to the bathroom without six people knowing where youre going.

OP
IMO the real issue is that sex is one of the traditional ways to compromise security.

Real issue imho is Cantor didn't tell Feinstein because they wanted an October Surprise

my thinking is, if this would get out, the Bengahazi Lie over at Bullshit Mountain would crumble

Didn't Romney say earlier this year in the 47% video that Obama would have his Carter Moment?

It was Cantors Duty, it appears, as a member of the Intel Committee, to tell the others

Gossip is what you get from TMZ. Concern is what you get from the intelligence community.
