A Former 4-Star General and CIA head, David Petraeus, Could Be Indicted on Felony Charges

Do you remember when he was considered a hero and was being touted as a possible presidential candidate? How the mighty have fallen.

Federal prosecutors have recommended filing criminal charges against Petraeus for his role in inappropriately transmitting classified info to his biographer and ex-mistress, Paula Broadwell, based upon investigators having found the material on her computer.

For a Director of Central Intelligence, he sure wasn't very good at keeping secrets. About anything.

You may remember some of the salacious details that emerged when he resigned from the CIA. The lovelorn general supposedly sent Broadwell "thousands" of e-mails in the four months after they broke up. If he doesn't get condemned for leaking state secrets, he should at least get ridiculed for being the biggest pussy of any general in memory. Let's say that "thousands" means "at least 2000." That many e-mails divided by 120 days means he sent his ex at least 17 e-mails per day.

This is probably the least manly thing done by a four-star general since that time Patton spontaneously started singing and dancing to the score of The Student Prince.

Oh, my shattered illusions about rugged, manly heroes.

Please, please don't tell me if Sully Sullenberger made some chick a mix tape.
