I will admit I did not see this one coming, though I suppose I should have.

Just another example of how you have to be care full all the time. 37 years of marriage, a great job, and a pretty good reputation all given up for what. I pray I never am tempted into throwing my life away like that.
The one thing that would worry me more now is who will take the place of him. This could start to get ugly. That position holds a lot of power to be abused.

I tend to believe it was exactly what it appears to be; nothing more, nothing less.
Still, as someone posted elsewhere, "I suppose resigning over an affair beats dying in a mysterious weekend self-inflicted UAV strike."

Now he does not have to testify in the congressional committee investigating Bengazi. In fact Fox says his name is no longer on the witness list...as Arty Johson used to say - VERY INTERESTING...
