I can’t believe Petraeus did something so dumb. He really should have known better.

I’m trying to figure out why the white house sewer trout is still feeling threatened by Petreaus.

I imagine it has to deal with Benghazi. He probably knows too much.

Petraeus would be the worse leaker. Snowden in my opinion has done more to preserve freedom than anyone in the last decade.

I've heard some folks call the guy a traitor. I guess those folks don't mind an oppressive totalitarian super surveillance police state.

Which leader is worse? Obama or Boehner?

Hillary is the worst leaker. Her email was probably hacked by so many foreign agencies, that it generated smoke from all the extra processing.

I know what Petraeus was trying to get. I don’t know what Snowden’s motives were.

Remember, Obama and Hillary trotted Petraeus out for his pathetic rendition of their lie about the video causing Benghazi…and after that humiliation, they threw him under the bus by revealing his affair.

He should tell us everything he knows about their actions in Benghazi. “Revenge is a dish best served cold.”

It is a bad thing for some nitwit to get it into his head that he’s going to give aid and comfort to repressive regimes that wish this country harm. He can tilt at Russia’s windmills and see what it gets him.

Petraeus or Snowden?

The answer is Hillary! (tm).

The classified material in the Petraeus case is known, with Snowden mostly known. But, with Hill!, tens of thousands of e-mails are unknown, and unknown what classified info was within them, but likely all now in the hands of foreign intelligence.

The only comparison I will make is one was a crisis of conscious and the other was a crisis of the pants.

What freedom was Snowden preserving for us here in the US when he spilled the beans about what we were listening to internationally?

I could go along with you had he divulged only the stuff that was being done here in the US against US citizens, but once you begin to leak the other stuff? Traitor applies.

I’ll bet that part of it has to do with fear that Petraeus might have run for POTUS one day. Sadly, for him, his little head overruled his big one.

Recall that Sandy Berger walked out of a facility with classified stuffed in his pants. Absolutely nothing happened to him.

Crisis of some ego inflated nitwit who can’t see the forest for the trees vs a situation you could have figured after about 30 seconds of observation.

I agree. But didn't he support the Obama-Clinton Team's unbelievable lie about the YouTube video as the source of the Benghazi attack. If so, he getting off easy as far as I'm concerned.
