he was not a narcissic sadistic amoral idiot. Looks don't really matter except they do in human face-to-face exchanges.

Petraeus had no business in a Democratic Party Administration nor IMHO in the USA military or intelligence community because of his choice of morality long before any recent incident.

His wife was the daughter of the headmaster or equivalent at West Point. What a slimy social climber.
