My guess is they're holding it over his head

to prevent him from spilling the beans on admin policies that would be embarrassing.

    I was surprised when the general joined this administration. I thought that he wanted to try and change things. He is one of the great generals of years past and got canned because he didn't kiss up to this criminal president. I still can't come up with any reason than above that he joined his lawless group. Then again, congress is aiding and abetting Obama with his law breaking and lying, but I don't put much faith in any but a few of these plastic teeth and perfect haircuts anyway.

    This is a great man and a great General. He had a weakness. No more than Eisenhower, Roosevelt, Kennedy, and old "Horndog" Clinton. At least she was a high ranking officer. He is responsible for saving myriads of lives, most of them American soldiers. A slap on the wrist may be due to him, but if more punishment is pursued, shame to the pursuers.

    before, during, and likely after. You may be right. Wouldn't surprise me in the least. The suspicious thing is that this was known for awhile, but suddenly comes out after Benghazi. Hmmm, makes one wonder.

    I don't know robbie. This administration has shown childish and immature behavior before. They may go after him for spite. They may go after him because they don't like him. They may go after him because he disagreed with Obama in a meeting. I am guessing they go forward no matter what.

    Surprised that it would even be made public. Usually the blackmail stuff is kept secret or denied repeatedly, e.g., Orahma's birth documents.

    looking at this woman I would be shocked if the general was giving any thought to national security or anything else other that the job at hand(:
    the 0 administration is hell bent on changing the subject anytime they are stuck with a situation that they have no idea how to handle.

    Maybe the Democrats have something on Boehner, McConnell and the other Republican Leaders. Any secrets the Democrats are holding over Republicans need to be exposed.

    Political Blackmail to keep him silent. General Petraeus should immediately go public with what he knows for the sake of the American people. Also, being in the light would also prevent "a tragic and unfortunate" accident like so many of the friends of the Clinton's experienced!
