Infographic of the day



.

For those of you whose head is reeling trying to keep up with the daily revelations centered around recently-resigned CIA director and former four-star general, David Patraeus, behold the following multi-colored USA TODAY-style infographic.

While reporters have been hard at work trying to uncover the latest salacious detail with the fury they would reserve for a trash dumpster in Wasilla, let's not forget what is important here... Benghazi.

Though technically a civilian now, Congress holds subpeona power over such folks and we'd be very interested to hear what Patraeus would have to say regarding what went down there considering a) he investigated the incident, b) the CIA timeline with respect to Benghazi differs from that of the White House and c) there is now a rumor floating around out there that Patraeus was not entirely forthcoming, or as they say in Placentia, California, truthful with respect to his briefing to Congress on September 14 on what happened in Benghazi.


Behghazi: a distraction. Patraeus/Broadwell: a distraction from the distraction. General Allen/Jill Kelley: a distraction from the... uh, you get the point.

I am putting my chips on Petraeus telling the truth under subpoena to Congress.

To do so, will make him a powerful political contender and defender of the USA!

The FBI is going to have some 'splainin to do when the dust settles. There was no legal basis for an investigation IMHO.
