Clinton survived his philandering, but not by much. And is now, year later, accepted as rehabilitated.

Petraeus as Director of the CIA was in a worse position than a President: a potential embarrassment to his Commander in Chief and the one man most responsible for our nation's international security.

I would think that people would appreciate that on this forum.

He had only himself to blame, ultimately, and he stood up and accepted personal responsibility. I give Petraeus credit for that.

The rest of the cast merits less credit.
