For President Obama, a politician of famous good fortune, even scandals within his administration seem well-timed.
The president has been untouched by the unfolding investigation involving former CIA director David H. Petraeus and Marine Gen. John R. Allen, the U.S. commander in Afghanistan.
Obama just won a not-so-close reelection battle and will never face another, leaving him less encumbered by the politics of the moment. The scandal hinges on a personal relationship beyond the White House and has not implicated the president or his closest advisers. And the person at the center of it Petraeus, one of the most accomplished military officers in recent U.S. history has been beloved by Republicans for years.

Obama was never told about Fast and Furious.
Obama was never told about Petraeus.
Obama was never told about Benghazi.
Obama is never told about anything negative, only things that can be used for campaigning, like the assassination of Osama Bin Laden.
This is how Obama ‘does’ his political opponents — he digs for a heterosexual sex scandal. Worked in Illinois. And we know he was mining dirt on Republicans. His campaign was frantically attempting to get anything on Mitt Romney in the waning days of the campaign that would bolster the meme that he was “mean to women.”
Democrats are so easily manipulated.
Well of course not. Satan has his back.
Scandals and stories stay on the front pages and the news broadcasts and grow when the owners of the press and electronic media CHOOSE TO KEEP THEM THERE. When one "story" stays on the front page, and another story disappears, the real question is not "who, what, where, how?" but "why?"
That's "why?" as in "Why this story and not that one?"
Why is the editor or owner of this paper attempting to direct my attention this way?
What is he trying to reveal, and WHAT IS HE TRYING TO OBSCURE???
Wishful thinking.
Obama planned much of this. He is taking down general after general by using administrative twists on duty.
Just follow the Benghazi trail beginning with General Hamm.
Since when does infidelity by a retired general who is now a private citizen have anything to do with how one does his job in the liberal fascist world? Obama himself has weekly trysts with his boy pals, yet is not called for it in terms of security risks.
So what is up? Obama is solidifying dictatorial control of the military by replacing high echelon military commanders with officers who will follow Obama dictat rather than defend and follow the US Constitution.Both Hitler and Mussolini did the same in history, and soon Israel will be in even more danger.
Petraeus was moved to CIA to be destroyed.Leon Panetta paved the way for it, after making sure that all understood that water boarding is torture ( the most effective way to gain timely intel from jihadists, which is why it was discontinued.), and threatening prosecution of dutiful CIA officers.
Our military is being destroyed by destroying some of our best men.
-—— Examples: Benhazi, who is Ben Ghazi? It’s all Bush’s fault! The Rich don’t pay enough, in fact they steal from the people... ——
Exactly right. The media is enemy #1.
We need to organize boycotts of media, just as liberals boycott conservative institutions. It’s a matter of survival, and time is running out.
Untouched???
He is orchestrating it!
Sully the guy before he can testify on Benghazi.
This is planned destruction, my FRiends.
Except that Fast and Furious and Benghazigate are a million times worse.
It’s getting crowded under that bus however.
Sully the guy before he can testify on Benghazi.
This is planned destruction, my FRiends.
Straight from the community organizers desk.

Before playing with snakes make sure you have you anti-venom handy.
His first loyalty was to his wife. How did that work out?
No, Petraeus will cover for Obama. He'll take the easy path.
The devil is on Obama's side.
The residents of Washington, DC live in a liberal stupor. They have no idea what the rest of the country is like. The Washington Post helps them to stay in the dark.
The writer of this article is attributing magical qualities to Obama. Anyone surprised?
The stupid President who never knew anything before it blew up in our faces.
The buck stops...naturally somewhere else.
