That was his PUBLIC excuse to get out of the CIA ... There's something more here than just an affair ... Usually VERY TOP HIGH OFFICIALS don't just get fired for cheating on their wives ... There's more going on here

David was walking in his homeland one day, enjoying a short respite after a long, grueling mission saving lives. A Goliath of a bull, seeing him weary, charged him.

David slung his sharp intel, flattened the bull, and bing-o was that bull's name-o.

David said, "oops burger," then kept walking, whistling happily.

Just then a wild horse came running towards him through the wheat fields. Sliding to a stop, the horse said, "Here I am, ready for lunch. Have I showed you the meaning of haste yet?"
