You shouldn't cheat on your wife, but what this has to do with his ability to direct CIA?

No criminal history, no excessive debts, do nothing that the opposition can use as leverage against you. No drug or alcohol issues. No marriage, affairs, relationships with foreign citizens. While I don't know the details on his affair, it's basically seen as a trust issue and they would likely replace him anyway. He knows this and just decided to step down on his own terms before he was forced out. Last edited by Daye; 11/09/12 01:59 PM.

Noone in either party wanted him out. I personally suspect that this is a prelude to his own Presidential ambitions, 4 years is plenty of time to recover from a minor mistake that never blew up into a scandal. His timing of waiting until after election ensures that noone accuses him of partisanship.

A lot of people underestimate the degree to which the upper echelons of govt are Byzantine and Machiavellian. The only thing you can be reasonably sure of in most cases, is that the media report does not reflect reality - or at the least, such a small piece of the total picture that the view is distorted.

Though, admittedly, they seem to be overlooked a bit the higher up on the food chain you sit. If given the opportunity to posses a clearance again, I don't know if I would. Too much bullsh*t to deal with.
