Petraeus has offered two reasons for wanting to avoid testifying: Acting CIA Director Morell is in possession of all the information Petraeus gathered in conducting his review and he has more current information gathered since Petraeus’ departure; and it would be a media circus.

“He really enjoyed his job at the CIA, it was the best job in the world, as far as he was concerned,” Mansoor told CNN’s Erin Burnett. “He had a good relationship with the president and national security team, and he threw that all away for…due to a personal failing. He is very, very down right now.”

The source who attended the event was struck by how openly Broadwell spoke about Petraeus, adding that she seemed to have personal insights about the CIA director: “She said he was unsure of himself sometimes. She said he was concerned about the public’s perception of him.”

Don’t know if this has been posted yet, but Acting CIA Director Morell briefed “Capital Hill” yesterday... (before testifying at hearing tomorrow). Why??? No hearing yesterday, was there?

Wonder if that influenced Petreaus decision?

One reason he is down because now he can't keep a close eye on the anti-American any longer. The other, he knows their ways and they will try to convince Americans that his word is no good despite his 4 star career. How fun it is for anti-Americans to bring a PATRIOT down. We should be used to it now.

“She said he was unsure of himself sometimes."

That's a good thing. So he wasn't self absorbed with himself. Sounds he is humble and not ego-driven but American driven totally UNLIKE the one he reported to.
