Nevertheless, this is just one example of the articles that would appear over and over again should Petraeus be appointed to anything.
But Petraeus only disclosed them to his girlfriend, who did not tell anyone else, whereas Snowden published to the world.
I am not a fan of the Petraeus potential appointment. But if this were to happen it would be a great opportunity to get the Dems to scream and yell, only to dig Hillary’s hole even bigger.
Snowden, keep screaming!
He didn’t dump them to the press. He revealed them to his biographer who had a clearance as an intel officer as I recall.
“When we had the most senior intelligence official in the United States, Gen. James Clapper, who lied to the American people and all of Congress on camera, under oath, in the Senate, in a famous exchange with Ron Wyden, he wasn’t even charged,” Snowden said. “But giving false testimony to Congress under oath, as he did, is a felony. It’s typically punished by three to five years in prison.”
Does "far more" refer to quantity or quality? One document at a higher classification level than Snowden released to one person would make this true. Misleading, but true.
Hellary sold more than both of them put together.
He’s a nation building globalist...the scandal is just icing on the cake
Petraeus didn’t seem to be aware he was stepping over any lines and didn’t feel the need to flee....he did wrong but Snowden, much as I’m glad he did what he did, was fully aware that he was shaking the hornet nest.
Betraeus needs to just go away. Giving illegal access to classified information is a crime. To give him a pass on this is wrong IMHO.
Snowden ....yer going to jail eventually. Your motives may have been good but your methods were criminal.
My opinion.
Petraeus can’t be trusted with classified material. He can’t be trusted to keep his gear in his trowsers. His presence in a Trump administration would completely undermine any criticism - never mind prosecution - of Hillary Clinton. He should be sent to Coventry, as the Brits say.
