The upset that began as Gen. David Petraeus' surprise resignation from his post as CIA-Director has swollen into a full-fledged scandal, implicating his successor general in Afghanistan, his biographer, the FBI, and an entire household of military advocates. Here 's a rundown of exactly what we've found out of late:
General John Allen, the commander of American forces in Afghanistan, came under examination because of 20,000 to 30,000 emails linking him to Jill Kelley, the Tampa military enthusiast who got exactly what she regarded as a harassing email from Petraeus' biographer-turned-mistress, Paula Broadwell. A Defense Department official distinguisheded some of those emails as "inappropriate" and "flirtatious," however yet another official stated they were mostly benign, and there were likely no sordid interactions between Allen and Kelley. White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters today that President Obama waits Gen. Allen.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
