General Petraeus

[Brian]

So here's a question for everyone.

What do you think of General Petraeus's resignation? Do you think it was justified?

Personally, my take on it is that you can't allow someone to remain in an intelligence position (especially one that high up) when they've proven that they can allow themselves to be compromised. He could've been blackmailed, she could've been an agent seeking information, etc. (There's already evidence she had classified documents she's not allowed to have.)

What do you think?

yes i do cause he couldn't keep it in his pants and that could be used against him if he kept the command and would endanger many lifes basicly if you are going to run something make damn sure you keep your other brain in check

[Boba]

I agree with you both. But how do you reconcile this with Bill Clinton? He was Petraeus' boss right?

[Millennium]

Brian...I seem to remember you didn't think Clinton should have resigned, over the Lewinski and several other accusations...and some of those were proven to be right.
