Among certain Army Officers, this is the talk. For several years, it was known by the WH that Petraeus had a mistress. It was not raised as a "big deal," however, the issue was subtly held over his head. Petraeus had disagreements with the WH over the handling of Afghanistan, and he was told to get in line, or else. The termination of General McChrystal was offered as an example of Petraeus' fate. Petraeus continued to battle with Obama and the WH over the handling of Afghanistan. As a result, Obama ordered Eric Holder to sick the FBI on Petraeus to find dirt to blackmail him into submission and silence. The CIA position was given to Petraeus to insure his cooperation and silence---so Obama thought.

Petraeus still refused to play ball with Obama. After Benghazi-Gate, Petraeus notified the WH that the CIA would be releasing facts re the incident and he would testify under oath to the same (all damaging to the Obama and the WH.) Petraeus was, again, threatened. This time, though, Petraeus was so irritated that Obama had let CIA personnel and the Ambassador die, that he outed himself and resigned, rather than be blackmailed about the matter by Obama. Thereafter, Obama ordered him to wait until after the election, but before the Congressional hearings to resign. Obama, the WH, and the FBI have already concocted cover stories and allegations to counter Petraeus.

How many of our Generals and Admirals will be punished for standing up to Obama's incompetence and corruption?

but the news forgets
congress can subpena him regardless, can he NOT speak of classified items? sure....but then they can re-activate him to active duty and then bbq his rear for adultery while on active duty, and then get classified info.

I think he was told to leave because he will have to outline the contradicting statements from the admin, and maybe show the public how deep the "watergate" cover up goes.
maybe we can get hearings afterwards for impeachment proceedings......
