In the past, generally speaking whenever one of their own has committed adultery they have usually tried to ignore it or look the other way. So long as I can remember the Mainstream Media has\u00a0never been overly concerned about extra-marital affairs before, whether they were being committed by their own beloved Hollywood elite, or by their own iconic Washington politicians. They weren\u2019t overly concerned about any of the numerous affairs that Bill Clinton had, whether they were committed in the Oval Office with Monica Lewinsky, or in the Arkansas Governor\u2019s Mansion, or in the back seat of his chauffeur driven limousine (paid for by the tax payers) or in a number of different motel rooms with a myriad of different women along the road to the White House.<em> <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">The press certainly wasn\u2019t taking the moral high ground while Ted Kennedy was out cavorting around, or out-womanizing the other members of the U.S. Senate, or while he was out late at night partying with Mary Jo Kopechne on that unfortunate\u00a0evening when\u00a0her body\u00a0turned up dead at the bottom of Lake Chappaquiddick in the front seat of his sedan! They ignored all of the extra marital affairs\u00a0that John F. Kennedy was having during his brief tenure as our Nation\u2019s 35th President. And they totally turned a blind eye to Robert F. Kennedy\u2019s affair that he was having with his dead brother\u2019s wife while his own wife Ethel and the rest of the Kennedy clan just looked helplessly on.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">For a long time the media completely covered up the affair that John Edwards was engaging in with another woman while his own wife was dying of breast cancer in 2008\u2026 in order to make sure that he would draw just enough votes away from Hillary Clinton during the Democratic Primary that Barack Obama would\u00a0win the nomination and go on to become our Nation\u2019s 44th President. I could go on and on like this, but I think you get my point. The media is very selective about whose affairs they decide to talk about and whose they don\u2019t, and why! And they utilize a very unfair political double standard.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">From the affairs of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the early 20th Century to the more recent affairs of John Edwards, the Democrat cover-up media machine has been extremely busy, and they have also been extremely careful about whose affairs make it onto the front pages of their flagship newspapers or onto the evening news at six. So right now the one affair of General David Petraeus is up front and center, above the fold. His extra-marital affair is about all that is being talked about in the news these days. It is all over the headlines and it is being\u00a0bandied about\u00a0on all of the talk shows in amounts approaching near saturation levels.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Why is there such a concerted attempt now to discredit the reputation of General David Petraeus after he has served his country so well in at least eight different administrations and commanded our army reputably in at least two different theatres of war; \u00a0Iraq and Afghanistan? Why is there such a determined effort to destroy this distinguished man\u2019s reputation after he served his country so honorably for so long? It doesn\u2019t add up! His sudden resignation as the Director of the C.I.A. after just recently being transferred over there, and the newly released revelations of his extra-marital affair amid the President\u2019s ongoing cover-up of the murders of our embassy personal\u00a0at Benghazi leave me puzzled and searching for answers. Nothing about this story adds up!\u00a0 And it shouldn\u2019t add up to any of my readers either.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The F.B.I. investigation into General Petraeus\u2019\u00a0isolated affair of the heart is extremely suspicious. Why investigate one of our Nation\u2019s most distinguished and trusted military Generals in the first place? And who cares about his lone affair? Certainly the liberal media doesn\u2019t! <strong><em>The F.B.I. has always been used as a tool by the White House to punish its political enemies and to keep its friends in line, going all the way back to the days of J. Edgar Hoover. Today\u2019s F.B.I. is a part of the Department of Homeland Security which is headed up by Janet Napolitano who is a Barack Obama political appointee.<\/em><\/strong> Can the F.B.I. be trusted to be above the political fray in Washington? I don\u2019t think so, especially under the current administration!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">So then what the hell is really going on here? I am just speculating of course. And it is highly unlikely that we are ever going to\u00a0find out just what really happened\u00a0at Benghazi. The Congressional hearings into the matter involving former C.I.A. Director General David Petraeus\u2019 testimony were closed to the public under the pretense of National Security. So all we can do is conjecture. But let\u2019s start out at least with this pregnant observation. People are fleeing the Obama Administration right now like rats off a sinking ship! It is rumored that Hillary Clinton will be resigning after the first of the year. General David Petraeus has already resigned. Other high ranking military officers have also tendered their resignations. Members of the Navy Seals have been publically rebuked by this community organizer in the White House and his reprimand has been prominently covered by all of the dutiful reporters in the lap dog media. So just what is really going on?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">I believe that a lot of people in the military are unhappy right now with\u00a0President Obama and most of them would have preferred it if he would have lost the election! It is very probable that something was going on at Benghazi that shouldn\u2019t have been going on over there\u2026 secretly\u2026 ala Iran-Contragate. This President is deeply involved in it whatever it is. He authorized it and directed it, and he is entirely implicated in it whatever it is. General Petraeus was involved in it too\u00a0so he knows all about it, and to secure his silence the Napolitano F.B.I. has been investigating General Petraeus in order to dig up something on him that the Obama Administration could hold over his head in order to get him to co-operate. One of the things that they discovered was a personal affair that he was having with the young writer of his biography.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">My guess is that when he learned what the White House was trying to do to him, General Petraeus chose to publically admit his affair and resign his commission rather than be blackmailed or fired by the White House. But because\u00a0there is probably\u00a0still something else that they\u00a0are\u00a0holding over his head, like his substantial military pension, I think it is highly unlikely that the whole truth about what actually went on at Benghazi, and the President\u2019s role in it, and the subsequent White House cover up will ever be fully revealed. This might also account for why Hillary Clinton took a convenient little trip overseas during the recent Congressional hearings into the\u00a0matter, and for her parting of the ways with Barack Obama, and it probably also accounts\u00a0for her unwillingness to serve in a second Obama term.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">\/shakeup-in-the-Obama-administration-affairs-of-the-heart.html<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Corroborating Source Material<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-508015\/Hillarys-humiliation-How-swept-Bill-Clintons-affairs-carpet.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-508015\/Hillarys-humiliation-How-swept-Bill-Clintons-affairs-carpet.html<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/wp-srv\/politics\/special\/clinton\/frenzy\/clinton.htm\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/wp-srv\/politics\/special\/clinton\/frenzy\/clinton.htm<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2008\/04\/20\/weekinreview\/20mcgrath.html?pagewanted=all&amp;_r=0\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2008\/04\/20\/weekinreview\/20mcgrath.html?pagewanted=all&amp;_r=0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.answers.com\/topic\/how-did-franklin-d-roosevelt-s-mistress-affect-his-marriage-with-eleanor\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/www.answers.com\/topic\/how-did-franklin-d-roosevelt-s-mistress-affect-his-marriage-with-eleanor<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lucy_Page_Mercer_Rutherfurd\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\">http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lucy_Page_Mercer_Rutherfurd<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/shakeup-in-the-obama-administration-affairs-of-the-heart-and-affairs-of-state\/\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"standard\" data-width=\"450\" show_faces=\"false\" data-action=\"like\" data-font=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<img width=\"125\" height=\"104\" src=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Petraeus-4.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail-excerpt\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><p>Isn\u2019t it funny all of a sudden how all of the liberal media seem to be so concerned about the one isolated affair of General David Petraeus?
