Something is weird here..
1st they say Broadwell broke up with Patraeus in 2011, and he has been sending her thousands of emails (which obviously she was ignoring or ignoring him).
Then it comes out she was sending threatening emails to a friend(?) of his. This doesn’t make sense if she broke up with him earlier....
Makes it more likely then that Romney didn’t pursue Benghani in the debate because he knew from Petraeus that the truth was going to rise to the surface anyway. Obama is going down eventually over this and other stuff that will come out. It will be so appalling that the senate dems will be forced to turn on him. I hope anyway. It is time for him to be held accountable.
Wow, do yo really think it's possible she has a Weiner?? We might get to see??? Yoo Hooo..
NOW, that would be somthin'... LOL
Well, he was rumored to be Hillary’s opponent......
Exactly. If a general or CIA leader is so screwed up in the head that he is sending over 20 emails a day to a woman not-his-wife who has long since cut him loose, what is he doing commanding agents whose lives could be at risk at any time? I would hate to think my sons or grandsons were serving under the command of a man in this state of mind. Just like I would hate to see any loved one of mine under the command of a CIC like Obama. I have told my grandkids STAY OUT OF THE MILITARY until our nation once again has a leader.
Still not seeing the attraction. She had lots to choose from in afghanistan, and chose someone 30 years older, maybe older than her father
How this story has developed over less than two full days is very interesting.
Still not seeing the attraction. She had lots of men to chose from in afghanistan, other soldiers with power, who were not 30 years older. Her father could be younger than DP
Without talking to him?
Thanks for correcting me. Just as much of a disgrace.
That slogan is quickly disolving. Amorals have overcome the constitutional system and culture which is the only thing that made us exceptional to the rest of the world.
Sorry, but it is true.
200+ years ago, Alexander Hamilton, one of the Framers of the Constitution, got caught up in a similar misdeed.
He, being a man of honor like the General, fessed up totally and refrained from further seeking of public office even though the sure betting at the time was that he would eventually be elected to the presidency.
Many men with great minds, great talents and honest patriotic interests sometimes allow their libido to rule.
It is part of the human condition. That is not an excuse or a reason to ignore the act. It is just a fact.
We are all tempted to sin and it happens.
I sincerely thank the General for his 4 decades of outstanding service, and wish him the best in his marriage, but it is time for him to go away.
Was it Kissinger who said that power is the ultimate aphrodisiac? This woman wasn’t looking for a mere roll in the hay with some young stud, she wanted to advance herself and her career.
You are very young aren’t you? Every FReeper male over smiled at your posts. We’ve all seen the allure of power. There is nothing new or shocking about young beautiful women stepping between old but powerful men and their wives.
Agreed. However, is it confirmed that the one he had an affair with is in fact of the normal female gender?

Oh yes, she is married to a doctor and they have two children. I am sorry for all of them. It is a sad time for everyone involved.
