Please help to make this "Open Letter to David Petreaus" go viral, so that it has to show up on his screen a thousand times.
We need a man of his stature to think of the Republic first, and put Duty, Honor, Country ahead of his own personal problems.
If you are indeed a man of honor then [you never would have received a fourth star from Obama].

Brings to mind a well established military tradition..."Up and Out!"

Being a mere citizen now, it may be outright illegal for him to say what needs saying. Laws get tricky at such fringes.

If Petraeus has lost his security clearance, the administration maybe can control what he would be allowed to talk about to a Congressional committee. If he does testify, will it even make the front pages of newspapers?
“think of the Republic first”
He won’t, never has.
Obama won’t, never will.
Republicans and Demorats that can prosecute such a thing, no way.

People in Washington think and act differently from us. They think that they are above the law - all law. There is no honor left in a man who would so easily betray his wife and his marriage oath.
Just as he has lied in September, so will he lie under oath.
Playing in my mind over and over again are our American Heroes begging for help for 7 hours while those in charge watched their brutal battle and did NOTHING TO HELP THEM!
Playing in my mind over and over again is the pathetic response to their cries for help, to their honorable Brothers who made ready to come to their defense, the order of ultimate betrayal of STAND DOWN!
Playing in my mind is their former General, David Petraeus, wimpily and pathetically blaming this horrendous planned attack on our brave Warriors on a video, carrying water for the failed leadership of this administration that our Troops have suffered so tremendously under! No honor here!
There hasn't been honor in his command for a long long time! What General of honor orders his troops out of armored vehicles onto foot patrol on roads laden with IEDs to further the failed policies of his cowardly boss?!! What General of honor continues to promote failed rules of engagement that affords the enemy every advantage on the battlefield and causes more loss of life and limbs in 4 years than the whole war from the beginning?! What kind of General of honor oversees deal making to release terrorists back onto the battlefield, one of which led this attack on our brave Navy Seals who fought the brute to their deaths?!! No honor here!!
Don't talk to me about the honor of General Petraeus! I hope the last thing that plays in my mind is the sound of his cowardly voice testifying to Congress that he has failed his men and he failed his country because somewhere along the way he lost his honor and his career and ego became more important to him than the safety of his men!

I do wonder about the honor of our very highest military officers. They **KNOW** that Obama posted forgeries, fails e-verify, and is using another man's social security. So?....What have they legally and peaceful done about it, except persecute lower level officer who dare to question Obama's right to live in the White house.?
Why would any of our most senior officers dare to accept orders ( especially insane rules of engagement) from a likely usurper without first ( legally and peacefully) getting certifiable evidence from congress and the courts that he was legitimate?
