David Petraeus rehire movement is picking up online after a report by Emily Yoffe from Slate voiced her opinion that President Barack Obama should rehire David Petraeus.
"I have a great idea whom Barack Obama should nominate as his next CIA director: Gen. David Petraeus." Yoffe wrote.
Meanwhile, General John Allen, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan has been reinstated in his post after the Pentagon announced it was investigating potentially inappropriate emails between Allen and Jill Kelley -- a Tampa socialite linked to the Petraeus sex scandal.
When news of the Petraeus scandal first erupted, news analysts were critical about the how the scandal had snowballed. It now appears that much of the investigation was suspect from day one. The case erupted after a series of emails were sent between two women, Paula Broadwell and Jill Kelley.
For reasons still unknown, Jill Kelley went to the FBI about a matter that did not warrant federal resources and wasn't even a federal, let alone local, criminal matter. Kelley reportedly felt harassed, not threatened, by emails from Broadwell.
