CIA Director General David Petraeus resigned on Friday because of an affair with a woman not his wife.

Why?

DC is literally festooned with hot-and-cold-running affairs, in every office, on both sides of the aisle.

Why Petraeus?  Why now?

Here is why, from Breitbart.com:

Petraeus was slated to testify before Congress next week on the murder of four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, in Benghazi, Libya. Bret Baier of Fox News just tweeted, “With Petraeus’ resignation effective immediately, he will not testify next week & lawmakers are said to be ‘stunned’ by the announcement.”

This is not coincidence.  This was timed to the Nth degree in order to protect Barack Hussein Obama.

Period.
