The Director of the CIA serves at the pleasure of the President. That's why Petraeus tendered his resignation directly to Obama. Being asked to resign, at that level, is equivalent to a forced resignation. The whole matter has been handled in a crude and ugly manner. I ask again, why doesn't...

Why isn't Obama saying he would be delighted to have General Petraeus give full testimony to Congress?

Guilt might reside with President Obama if he kept a lid on this story until after the election.

How about some transparency from the Obama administration? That would be refreshing. Does it bother any Obama supporters that this resignation was held back until after the election in order to not harm Obama's electoral chances? What did Obama know and when did he know it?

If Obama wanted to keep Petraeus on board, he would have done so. Extramarital affairs are typically inconsequential in the Democrat Party. If Obama wished to keep Petraeus, Petraeus could have held a news conference and come clean about his affair, negating the prospect of blackmail...

Why didn't Obama force Petraeus to resign before Election Day? Why force a resignation days before Petraeus was due to testify about Benghazi?

David Petraeus has resigned his position as Director of the CIA just days before he was scheduled to testify before Congress. Petraeus was to testify concerning his knowledge about the terrorist attack in Benghazi which resulted in our US ambassador and 3 other Americans being killed. At the...

Why do Obama voters insist on injecting race into every discussion? Can you see your own racial bigotry in the quote above? What is truly shameful is how the Democrat Party exploits racial minorities through fear-mongering and false accusations. I understand why the Democrats do this. It is...

The Obama voters cannot be reached with a reasoned appeal. I no longer try to reason with Democrats. They are too far gone.

You flatter Libertarians by granting them fringe status. Something less than fringe.

Once a breakaway movement starts, it's going to include much more than Texas. Socialism isn't going to stand in many areas. Socialism isn't compatible with a free people.

I make the observation that a national split is coming. The political right and left are growing substantially farther apart. What particular issue will force the split is unknown. This nation was born out of a tax revolt and contempt for a ruling power which placed heavy burdens on the...

At some point, there is a national divorce coming to split the United States. Let's hope it is an amicable and mutually agreed upon separation. Much as the War of Northern Aggression evolved from social and economic differences, the coming troubles will likewise find their roots nurtured in a...

Kentucky has little to nothing in common politically or culturally with most states north of the Ohio River. The Ohio River could serve as the demarcation line between the Two Americas. Suits me.

I cannot find any fault with the Constitution given to us by the Founders. The admendment process is there to address change. I would never trust either party to behave responsibly at a Constitutional convention.

Here in Kentucky, Obama carried just 4 of 120 counties. In the entire Commonwealth, Obama won only one county( Jefferson) by a margin greater than 1%. Can any other state claim such widespread repudiation of Obama's reign of economic terror? If we remember that Obama won 8 of 120 Kentucky...

It will be interesting to see if a defeated Barack Obama will leave office graciously.

Romney might pull a huge win Tuesday. I do not envision Obama winning a majority of the national vote. He does not enjoy majority support at this time. However, Obama could manage to eek out the electoral college vote and that is what matters. It looks increasingly likely that Romney is...

I voted by absentee ballot when I was home last week. The anti-Obama fervor is going to surprise people on Election Day.

Yes, indeed Kentucky is receiving snow. The Appalachian counties of Pike, Harlan and Letcher are under a winter storm warning until Wednesday morning. Payne Gap, Ky reported 14" of snow this morning with the region expecting more. Winds of 25-40 mph. I-64 in Eastern Kentucky has seen several...
