This is not done yet. Amazing, too, that a local Denver reporter has more journalistic integrity than the rest of the MSM!

Obama has thrown 3 cabinet members under the bus in an effort to deflect the ugliness of the deadly debacle and the subsequent weeks of lies about Benghazi from himself.

The complicit media is heroically trying to cover all this up. The story is simply wiped from many media channels. Still, as the truth comes out, the firestorm is getting worse.

Clearly, the CIA was being set up as a scapegoat and apparently Petraeus said NO.

What respect I had for Petraeus has vanished. He joined Obama and has thrown in with the forces of evil. He has been SILENT while the CIA has been blamed and trashed by Obama and Company.

This isn't an honest response--it is a weasel statement.

Maybe this is payback. Too bad the basest hound, Panetta, doesn't have as much backbone,

He's a patriot and I would fight in his army. I mean, Petraeus is. As for the WH, there are no words.

Resign, you scrofulous little man! The Republic will survive ten weeks of President Biden.

President GW Bush kept America safe for 7 years and free from ANY attacks, and that included installations overseas, as well.

Obama may have been personally responsible for the deaths of 4 Americans, as he went off to campaign.

You simply do NOT mess with our intelligence community - they know too much.

Patraeus' training in military strategies and tactics trumps his (so-called) CIC. Our military would follow Patraeus wherever he leads them! Good man.

Washington is a cesspool with these Chicago thugs in charge. The truth is gradually coming out. Zero hopefully will be held completely culpable by the election. I think he already told Mouchelle to start packing.

Once again, I must opine that the reason ambassador sullivan was at the consulate, and the reason he was not protected properly had to do with the administration's narrative that the arab spring was composed of peace loving, moderate muslims, who loved America.

If troops went in to rescue the ambassador, that would contradict the narrative. Better to take the hit, lie about it, apologize to the filthy islamofascist terrorist pigs for the unseen video, and drag it out until after novemeber 6.

Petraeus just took CIA out of the chain. By his wording, not only did no one at CIA make the decision to not help, no one at CIA passed on any such order from the president. That leaves only State and Defense. Ths list of suspects narrows.

I agree with #3. Great disappointment in the once seemingly heroic Petraeus. He hasn't been seen or heard from since obama gave him the job of CIA "director". I thought he was in witness protection. Don't know what happened to him but it isn't good. Too little, too late, General.

What is Petraeus supposed to do? Scream and yell? Hold a press conference?

He kept silent because the CIA was not involved in Benghazi.

The CIA is not supposed to be out there and making statements and being political.

Petraeus has been doing what the CIA is supposed to do.

But, he will not allow the CIA to be thrown under the bus.

Good for him.
