Yes,over thirty thousand pages of emails between them. They must have a lot of free time to generate that many emails.

There's more. This morning the news is that Jill Kelly, the 37-year-old Tampa woman who reported the threatening e-mails to the FBI, is a close friend of Petraeus and his wife, and ...  and, "The Pentagon announced early Tuesday" that she has been exchanging "potentially inappropriate" e-mails with Gen. John R. Allen, a marine and commander of U.S. and NATO troops in Afghanistan.

Right off the top of  my head, I'd say the families of all those enlisted men over there getting body parts blown off or killed outright might be a little upset.  Those generals are not ordinary people having ordinary affairs.

My point was that we are throwing a very good, if not great public servant under the bus for something that used to be looked over with a wink and a nod.

I hate to think what would have happened if we had fired Eisenhower because of his affair with Summersby.

Hey, for the record I am on Petraeus side...based upon everything I have heard.  But, this whole thing kind of keeps getting juicier.
