    O.K. so... if the two events are *NOT* related why can't he testify. This has something to do with Libya. It could have everything to do with Libya. I'm on the case about it now, $#@! this. 4 Americans died and they're trying to cover it up.
    If Gen. Petraeus does not testify, the two are absolutely related. Why else wouldn't he testify?

    I really want to know more about this. I think we will learn this goes much deeper. Why did the FBI think he was being black mailed for one...

    Ya, but I'm speculating now in case I'm right I can say "I told you so", because I am 90% sure this has SOMETHING to do with Libya.

    Peter had good things to say about him too.

    I'm disappointed by this, I read Broadwell's book and saw her interviewed, you could tell she was a HUGE fan but I didn't expect something like this. I feel the worst for her kids.

    This news shouldn't affect whether he testifies before Congress or not IMO. He should do it anyway.

    Petraeus will only be famous as a Bush neocon who wrote a counterinsurgency thesis based on our boys getting slaughtered in Iraq.

    I was there with Petraeus and with those troops getting killed. You should keep your God damn mouth shut when it comes to honorable service. You have no right in that arena. PoS.

    There has to bee something else - this is not Petraeus. He should never have gotten involved with the CIA mess. For me, this is worse news than the election.

    I agree but it seems strange all the department heads that have scandals have said they are gone so quick after the election. This affair does not seem right

    "House investigators asked Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to testify next week about the September 11 terrorist attack in Benghazi, but she declined citing a scheduling conflict.

    "http://washingtonexaminer.com/house-asked-clinton-to-testify-on-benghazi-but-she-declines-due-to-scheduling-conflict/article/2513151

    Perfectly timed resignation, "scheduling conflict".......Four grieving families will never know the extent of the fecklessness that led to their son's/father's/brother's/husband's death....all to protect the most despicable piece of Chicago thuggery $#@! that's ever sat behind the Oval Office desk
