That's why Petraeus confessed to it--because it was already out there. All the two of them needed to do after that horse left the barn was firm up the dates and get on the same page as far as the timeline goes.

Two astoundingly stupid assholes--they deserved each other. The American people didn't deserve either one of them in the uniformed ranks--a bunch of "in the rear with the gear" bullshit artists, if you ask me.
