Conservatives are now attacking General David Petraeus, the CIA Director who resigned today because he had an extramarital affair. Petraeus just months ago was considered a possible running mate for Mitt Romney, and is — was — so beloved on the right for being the hero who lessened the disasters that were Bush’s wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
READ: Breaking: CIA Chief David Petraeus Resigns Over Extramarital Affair
Petraeus was about as close to God as you could get in the GOP. Rather than allow a man who chose an honorable path they would never, ever consider — resigning after a personal failing — they attack and lambast him in their freak show attempts to paint President Obama as forever evil.
But of course, nothing is sacred over in anti-reality world that is conservative America.
Remember, these are the same people who impeached Bill Clinton over having an affair. Here, General Petraeus shows he’s a man of honor — not like, say Newt Gingrich or Rush Limbaugh — and they attempt to annihilate him.
Remember, too, this is the “pro-family” crowd.
Pro-family, my ass.
Unless Petraeus’s “extramarital affair” was with Vladimir Putin, his resignation is OF COURSE about Benghazi.

UPDATE: FBI probe of Petraeus triggered by e-mail threats TO ANOTHER WOMAN from biographer, officials say http://tinyurl.com/a7b876s
Petraeus questioned over 2 weeks ago. Investigators had to determine identity of sender, eg. as Paula Broadwell.
CLAPPER not told till Tuesday evening..He called Petraeus and asked for resignation. OBAMA not told till THURSDAY?!! I find that the most horrific part.
I guess the conservative windbag balloon may have burst, but it's still fouling the planet like a used rubber lying in a sewer.
