    I know this will shock some of you, but apparently if you are a high official in the Obama administration, normal rules do not apply to you. This guy was caught red handed providing classified data to his GF, then he lied about, which is open and shut obstruction of justice. You know, the same thing they sent Martha Stewart to prison over, only hers concerned some minor stock deal.

    Scooter Libby was sent to prison for a made-up crime involving the CIA, but the director of the CIA can violate security rules and skate. Is this a great country or what?

    Of course, John McCain didn't think he should be prosecuted at all. After all, he wore a uniform.

    What!?

    Oh, in that case, let anyone in the administration do anything illegal that they want.

    A little background: in AAA's view all the world's ills (that he chooses to be aware of) lie at Obama's feet. I want him to be ready for the day when Obama is no longer president--the loss of a support like that could devastate AAA.

    It'll still be Obama's fault for at least two years thereafter. Possibly four.

    You are extremely optimistic.

    I am sure Petraeus had the tools available to hack Hillary Clinton's personal email account and he could have gotten all the classified documents he wanted.

    It worked for Bush.
