The Rock

Where are you General David Petraeus?  Thank you for your statement yesterday, October 26, 2012, but it is not enough.  As director of the CIA you can no longer can hide under the rock of the chain of command.  You are now a political servant of the president and have the option to serve, or not to serve, as your conscious may dictate.  The deliberate decision to leave your people exposed to the murderous intention of the terrorists in Benghazi came from someone, if not you, who?

You claimed, “No one at any level in the CIA told anybody not to help those in need; claims to the contrary are simply not accurate.” (Weekly Standard, October 26, 18:05)

All of this is well and good, but are you going to allow whomever ordered  your people “to stand down”, a rock to hide under by insinuating that you and the intelligence community are responsible?  If no one else in the administration will speak up and answer all questions about the Benghazi events, you must clear your agency and your people of responsibility.

Need I remind you, you are the Director of the CIA, you owe our heroes Tyrone Woods and Glen Dougherty more than a simple statement, resign and speak up on their and our behalf.  After all, they lost their lives not just their jobs!
