If Petraeus is as capable as he's been made out to be, I find it shameful that he is being displaced because he had an extramarital affair. Now, if he partook in some wrongdoing beyond that, be it sharing classified documents or blackmailing someone it is a different story. But as far as I'm concerned his affair is between himself, his mistress and his wife, I could care less.

As I mentioned, unless he partook in some wrongdoing. Everyone has their demons and if we start terminating those that have access to classified information based on whether or not they can be "shamed" and hence manipulated based on a transgression, my guess is our talent pool will shrink pretty quickly.
