Jon Stewart mocks Petraeus-Benghazi conspiracy: Quitting isn’t dying
On his show Monday night, The Daily Show host Jon Stewart lampooned conservative conspiracy theories about former CIA director David Petraeus. Some conservatives have suggested the Petraeus sex scandal was somehow connected to his upcoming testimony about the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi. But Stewart snarkily noted that Petraeus would still be summoned to testify, since “quitting is different from dying.”
