I have a bad feeling that the sexual aspect is not really a “distraction.” I have a very nasty hunch that this whole Libya deal is much bigger than any of us can see right now, and we may never unravel all the threads.

But at least it didn’t harm Obama’s reelection. We sure dodged a bullet on that one, huh?

Seems this would be a great story for a satirist, something along the lines of, say, “Barack in Wonderland?”

There is so much incompetence, such misdirection, such nefarious imperiality, it should be no trouble to create a story about a little boy who fell down a rat hole into a strange land full of strange and evil characters whose evil and idiocy pervades the entire landscape.

In the meantime, let’s see just how serious the government is about having someone, not authorized, be in possession of “top secret” documents. This may be a good test to see if that designation is simply a meaningless phrase, if it’s meant only for documents potentially embarrassing to the administration, or if it means what it says.

Now that they raided her house and found “state secrets” I wonder if there was more than sexual infidelity happening. Can you or I just ask to download thousands of pages of classified documents so we can write a book? This is getting creepier by the day. Was she a spy? Was she looking for ammunition to declare the Obama administration incompetent? Inquiring minds want to know!

A more rudimentary question is, if Petraeus and his replacement in Dumbf**kistan, General Allen, are in a command position where troops’ lives are dependent on the unhindered performance of their leadership duties, when do they find the time to cavort with stray opportunistic women? This is an object lesson in the arrogance and misplaced sense of entitlement among military officers; and that is based on experience.
