Fox News Analyst on Petraeus Resignation: ‘These Tough Chicago Guys Knew…Held it in Their Back Pocket Until They Needed to Play the Card’
Fox News analyst Ralph Peters on Friday called the timing of Gen. David Petraeus’ sudden resignation as CIA director “just too perfect for the Obama administration” and speculated that “tough Chicago guys” held onto knowledge of the affair until they needed to push the spy chief out.
Peters, a retired Army lieutenant colonel, said on Fox News that just as the administration initially called the assault on the Benghazi consulate on the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks “purely coincidence,” it’s again “purely coincidence” for the affair to surface after the election but before Petraeus went to Capitol Hill for questioning about Benghazi. CIA Acting Director Michael Morell will now testify instead of Petraeus.
“As an old intelligence analyst, the way I read this — and I could be totally wrong, this is my interpretation — is that the administration was unhappy with Petraeus not playing ball 100 percent on their party line story,” Peters said. “I think he was getting cold feet about testifying under oath about their party line story, and I suspect that these tough Chicago guys knew of this affair for a while, held it in their back pocket until they needed to play the card.”
He added, “Right after the election and right before Petraeus is supposed to get grilled on Capitol Hill, it just really smells.”
But Fox News’ Bret Baier reported shortly after the news of the resignation broke that a source close to Petraeus insisted it had nothing to do with what happened in Libya.
The source said Petraeus’ message was “tell the truth, it was my request, the White House did not pressure me to do this, this had nothing to do with Benghazi, nothing at all, this was my request, this had nothing to do with it. I want to testify about Benghazi, there was nothing to do with the White House pressuring to leave this job.”
Glenn Beck last month speculated that Petraeus would ultimately take the fall on Benghazi.
βWho have they tried to sell down the river every step of the way? The intelligence,β Beck said. βYou watch. Petraeus is going to be the fall guy. Theyβre going to have him step down. Β Theyβre going to point all fingers to him.β
In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isnβt really about controlling guns at all; itβs about controlling us. Find out more HERE.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 10:35pmJarret told Obama he can’t put boots on the ground in Libya during an election. So Panetta over Defense said ok and Petraeus told his CIA team to stand down. They disobeyed his orders saved Americans but lost their lives. Petraeus continued to stand by Obama in the coverup. Just as H Clinton tried to take the blame for him. But Petraeus did not stand by his men. So the CIA whispered in the ear of the FBI and his affair was discovered and revealed. Now Obama will invoke executive privilege to prevent Petraeus’s testimony. When Obama only half heartedly stands with Israel when it attacks Iran that will be Obama’s Waterloo. Obama is living on a razor’s edge just like Nixon who won a second term. Watch and see. Mossad will be blamed.

Posted on November 10, 2012 at 12:08amNo, it means the General wasn’t willing to lie about Obama knowing in real time what was happening in Benghazi, and that Obama committed treason by ordering intelligence operatives and the military to stand down. Obama knowingly abandoned our Ambassador while condemning our troops to die by refusing to send reinforcements three times, as the SEALs bravely held their ground while repeatedly asking for the cavalry that was ready, willing and able to come to their rescue.

Wow you ought to write fiction novels, big sweeping stories filled with espionage and intrigue.
Not saying what you wrote is untrue but just to say that you wrote so well and convincingly.
Now here’s my problem, I think you believe what you wrote. If it were true, you’re putting the Obama administration’s skills on the level of James Bond. Ruthless, efficient machines on a mission. Out to do all kinds of wrongs, bent on destruction.
That’s the problem, you believe your own fiction. The real world isn’t like the movies.

It has nothing to do with a James Bond plot. The whole world knows that Obama and his cartel are corrupt. The Constitution provides for eliminating people like this. The problem is that not one politician has the fortitude to start the process. It’s like giving a 6 year pld a new Vette. It sounds good but he can’t drive it. Same with the Constitution. Nothing but 6 year olds are in power. What a waste of freedom. It’s all over unless the evidense is given to Glen, Rush, or Levin. The MSM will not release the info to the American public.

Posted on November 10, 2012 at 4:41amThat was obviously the plan.
A few days ago, the CIA told Obama they were going to tell the truth to Congress, which contradicts Obama’s fantasy version of events, and so the White House took them out.
What Obama’s Chicago Gang doesn’t realize is that the CIA spooks are more powerful and ruthless than they are, and Obama just pissed on them.

Do you think the Founding Fathers played this way with the opposition from other colonists who where against the Revolution? I hope so and I thank them.
How did the Founding Fathers treat the Loyalists? I would have helped look at what it accomplished, the USA.
Do you think some British soldiers where killed at night in Boston, in the dark alleys, when they where staggering back to the barracks or one of the occupied homes, from the pub? Most likely we where fighting a guerrilla war.

Posted on November 10, 2012 at 3:53pmThis President thinks NO ONE realizes what is happening–election proves most do not, but please, this does not stink, this is so one dimensional it is pathetic. I have been wondering when Petraeus was going to show his loyalty to the military since it has been his life. Well, I am sure that he told our faithless leader he was going to tell the truth–confirm the stand down orders, the confirmation that they always knew it was not a video, and Stevens was running guns for the Big Guy. And let us all go back to the time when Panetta and Petraeus switched jobs–does not really make sense because Panetta is qualified for nothing and Petraeus has the heart and the mind of his troops. How could an anti-military, anti-loyal president have him head the Defense Department when he would tell His Lowness “we do not leave anyone behind.” He would have exposed him immediately. Now let’s see if this General will do the right thing and expose the whole Benghazi mess–this will not be the last time it happens. This president apologizes to the Muslim world every other day, but did he call and apologize to the American moms, dads, wives, sisters and brothers of those who have been killed due to his apologies, or when the Afghan soldiers are given a weapon to train with our troops and they kill our soldiers? Bring our troops home because it does not matter to this president who dies as long as it does not offend the Muslim world.

Posted on November 10, 2012 at 7:42pmOctober was supposed to have its surprises and now November has them as well, except there’s no republican candidate to pick on. First the drone incident on November 1, reported after election day and now Petraus stepping down, again AFTER election day. Maybe Obummer will give us another surprise and RESIGN!!!! How much more shameful can this Administration get?? But lest we forget Obummer says he’s willing to reach across the aisle and compromise. He doesn’t have a compromise bone in his body. If he wants the rich to pay more taxes, he could start out by leading by example. After all, he was paid by the US for his job as President in 2012 and certainly did not earn it considering he got in 100 rounds of golf and was out campaigning since the beginning of the year; that salary would go a long way toward paying off some of the debt for which he’s responsible.
What’s going to happen to the 50% who get paid from the 50% who work when that number of workers starts dwindling? But the liberals will give out of the generosity of their hearts.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 8:06pmIt seems I heard right before the “Election” or maybe coronation is a more appropriate term, that Petraeus said in a clip that the “Stand down order didn’t come from the CIA”. Well Obama is looking for a scapegoat and he has found one. While the general did in fact submit his resignation, citing his actions, it would only have been a matter of time till soneone in the administration would have “Leaked” the information.

Actually, I did. And so did everyone who followed reputable polling services and Nate Silver with 538 at NYT. They had it right all along. 538 called every state spot-on. Rove and Morris over at FOX were misleading viewers and multi-million dollar doners with “un-skewed polls.com”. It was the talk of FOX and Beck for a month and they were tragically wrong. I know polls are about math and statistics and electoral analysis is about history and science, and I know fundamentalists just love denying math and history and especially science. They must also like losing elections. And being lied to. Keep listening to FOX. Or you could wake up and realize the GOP has won the popular vote once since 1988. Once. 2004. That’s 5 out of 6. I’m sure Rove will assure you tonight that’s a sure sign that the country is moving to the right. So the GOP will listen and I’ll have to school you again on ‘electoral analysis’ again in November 2016.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:08pm@STARVIEW – Thanks for the link. These military votes, of all votes, SHOULD be counted. They were cast 8 months ago and sent to U.S., sat in a warehouse, mislabeled as ammo and sent to Afghanistan. This is unbelievable and outrageous. The votes show up 1 day late.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:25pmSTAR: The Left hates the military ! Gee, why would the Left not want to count the military votes ? Remember the Smear ” General Be-tray-us ?” The Left has hated the police and military since the Bill Ayers 60s. The Obama Left still does. And the military is primarily conservative ( except for the new gay members the Left have now droned in ! )

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:28pmIt’s precisely what you would expect. He knew the military would swing heavily to Romney because Obama threatened that if the Congress did anything to shore up the proposed military cuts in the fiscal cliff, he would veto it. He wants us weak and helpless and perfectly positioned for the Muslim Brotherhood to take over. I quit listening or watching Fox News a long time ago. I listen to Patriot channel on XM and watch The Blaze. I support the Truth dealers not the dealers in lies and “fair and balanced”.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 9:02pmStarview…….goood link. I am sooo mad at this crooked, crooked regime I could march on Washington by myself. This crap happens in third world countries…..not here. The regime is holding back military votes that would put Romney in as president and delivering them late and WE the people….sit by and stand for it.???? This regime stinks to high heaven. This is what you get from a third world president from a corrupt city like Chicago. We must do something.

You people are an amazing example of everything wrong with this country. You actually think this story is true, despite all evidence to the contrary. Astounding! Just like you all spent months (or years depending how close you are to GOP) being lied to by Mittens. Badly lied to, as they were constantly pointed out, and you still wonder why he lost. Block fox “news” from your TV and see what’s really going on.

Posted on November 10, 2012 at 6:16pmI can tell you first hand it is bad. People are screaming at LIPA utility. They did not help give us power for over a week. There are others that are still waiting. People are cold and tired. They are sending in the Federal Government with military. Wonder if that will lead to martial law. There are gas lines for hours, so they made an odd/even rule. Gas stations can’t give out gas because they didn’t have a generator. The government could have sent us some. But no help. Honestly, what I see is people helping each other rather than our president.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:04pmYes but it’s true, and that’s why the Bible says when God’s Kingdom comes down you’ll neither get married or give in marriage. And until you realize most people live an adulterous life, you’ll continue to raise children in someone else’s house, and your children will be bastards.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:04pmRepent, Seriously…… There are too many things now that match Revelations in the bible. I seriously believe Obama is the Antichrist. Listen to his speeches in reverse “Yes We Can = Thank you Satan!”
I remember as a child in a Christian school discussing how the antichrist would be from European decent, and we discussed how it would be impossible for it to be our president as the Constitution protects us from that!
Obama was born in Kenya, Kenya was under British Rule at the time of Obama’s birth…..
How can anyone support “Live Birth Abortion, Abortion is bad enough, but this is murder, no doubt about it.
4 people dead in Benghazi and everyone surrounding Obama keeps it under raps so he can be re elected?
He has been portrayed as the second coming of the Messiah, time and time again by the media and his followers.
I can not say for sure that he is the Antichrist, just as God says that no one will know the time of his return.
In my opinion, if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, acts like a duck, it’s a duck!!!!!
Keep your eyes out for a pandemic, I can see mandates for RFID chips coming (all under the guise of Obama Care)

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:40pmI have been saying the same thing. I told my mother if God did not answer our prayers for Romney to win, then there is a reason. That reason is that the end is near. IIt is God’s will and it has already been written. I found a website that explains the meaning of each passage of Revelations what to watch out for before it comes to pass. Almost everything that I read is happening now. The kool-aid drinkers tell me that the Bible is a fairytale. I just laugh. God is going to show the non-believers a fairy-HELL.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:55pmThe American public does care, at least those who have an IQ over 40. Did you note how many voted for Romney? According to accounts it was Republicans who stayed home. Maybe those Paulbots (Libertarian) who would rather flush their country down the toilet even though this the most important election in American history? I am very conservative but cutting off nose to spite the face has no rewards. Mitt Romney is a good man and as the song goes, a good man is hard to find, you always get the other kind…….Didn’t Obama offer him a job already? How ironic. I’m with Winston Churchill on this: Never give in. Never Never Never……And no, won’t sport with you sporties. Better things to do like ho hum read a book.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 7:20pmI don’t believe one thing that has anything to do with Obama. I think Gen. David Petraeus will take any amount of shame to get away from the filth he will get if he stays close to that imposter. I would say I cheated on my spouse if it got me out of that situation. I think Petraeus just beat them at their own game.

Posted on November 10, 2012 at 11:29amI think the affair is a cover story. The general woke up with a horse head in his bed & so did justice Roberts. They both learned that the Chicago way is in control now & no one would save them or their families. Remember Benghazi. If I was in military now I would be watching the commanders carefully & keep the buddy system 1st. A little civil disobedience may be in order.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 6:44pmPetraeus stated something to the effect that this was not the way to end his career in government. Well every military man knows that even if he rises to a government position that he NEVER had a career in government. He had a career serving the people of this country. I think there is something to be said about the way he worded this.

Posted on November 9, 2012 at 6:43pmThey’ll destroy him if he blows the whistle on Benghazi. He’ll be discredited by everyone that’s anyone and, in the end, still take the fall. The congressional hearings will lead to a hand slap (see Fast and Furious) because no one in DC has a pair of stones. This is the best we can do any more people. Dead border patrol agents, dead ambassadors, reprimanded SEAL’s, Marxist leadership. The only alternative is revolution….
