Yep.

What I find entirely non-coincidental is Petraeus's resignation immediately following the election.

My crazy now-unfriended FB acquaintance posted that it's clearly suspicious that Petraeus AND Clinton announced their resignations so quickly after the election, so obviously it's to avoid further inquiry into Benghazi.

I just don't understand what planet some people live on.

Um, because resigning will exempt them from testifying? I'm assuming this is not the case. (too lazy to verify) Of course we have known for a really long time that Clinton would be going.

My conjecture on Petraeus is that while he may be a crappy husband he is a good soldier and that would influence his timing.

If I'm here for 3 more hours (hope not) the social worker should be in, and maybe I could talk to them face to face. If not, I will get contact info.

I'm admitted now, not medicated, and it's all still deeply stupid and frustrating.

I used to be keeping very detailed records, but I got exhausted. When they treat me respectfully, I have the energy. Weird, that.

Sec of State don't last longer than 4 years most of the time. See GWB administration. P4 will not testify about Benghazi. The acting Chief will.

Apparently the big "surprise" about Benghazi is how large our CIA presence is there and I am not sure that is exactly a topic for CSPAN.

Oh, totally. Which is why my ex-FB acquaintance just pisses me off. Willful ignorance.

Again, totally. I thought most people knew that.

P4 will not testify about Benghazi.

Does "P4" stand for Petraeus? And if so, what does it mean?

I do find it interesting that adultery is seen as worse than killing large numbers of innocent people. Somehow that killing lots of people in Iraq and Afghanistan (and these days Pakistan and other places) is awesome. He ran programs that killed children as a side effect, but since that was his job it just made him a hero. But fucking someone not his wife, well that is beyond bearing and obviously he had to resign.

From what I gather he isn't resigning because of adultery, but for exposure of information (email) to a crazy person. (short version)

Kinda skipping the Petraeus stuff to ask if folks have seen every episode of Buffy in limerick form?

I hope the next CIA Director provides all reports to Congress in limerick form. Or haiku.

Hubby has picked up the line I came up with, that Democrats have sex scandals and Republicans have money scandals, so you should become a Democrat and get laid.
