Petraeus mistress and her partner arm in arm on night out for first time since scandal broke

Paula Broadwell arrives back at her brother's Washington D.C. home with husband Scott

Linked arm-in-arm, Paula Broadwell and her husband Scott were seen together yesterday evening for the first time since the news broke of her affair with shamed former CIA Director David Petraeus.

Arriving at her brother's home in the Mount Pleasant suburb of Washington D.C. in a black SUV, the two put on what was a clear show of solidarity as they marched from the garage to the back door of the $2.3 million property.

Since the scandalous revelations surrounding his wife first surfaced just over a week ago, Scott Broadwell has been conspicuous for his absence and his appearance last night indicates that he is standing by the West Point Graduate.

Looking stern and taking the lead from her husband, the Paula Broadwell did not speak to the gathered news reporters as she marched into her sibling's home.

Presumably, the pair had been out that evening, possibly at dinner and it is not clear when Scott arrived at the home or when Paula herself left.

Don’t underestimate what Obama will do to make this situation go away.

The General she did it with is the superior officer.

He bears the responsibility in this situation to know what he did was against the UCMJ.

If he had sex with her in Iraq or Afganistan he violated General order number 1. The same order used to prosecute countless soldiers under his command. He will skate. She will become the scapegoat. Seen it all before.

Looks as if he’s busy playing pocket pool...

Checking to see if he has balls to do what he needs to do.

Nothing to him on the military side. We will see what his wifes divorce lawyer has to say about all this.

I would love to be a mouse in the corner at Broadwell and Jill Kellys house though.

He’s lying. Do you remember the Secret Service scandal? “Wheels up, rings off”....

Linked arm-in-arm....

That picture does not show them linked arm-in-arm; it shows her holding onto his arm. With the way his hand is just jammed into his pocket, she might just as well not even be there.

re: Well she served in the military, after all.)))

Heh--she certainly "serviced" in the military.

One of the reasons that adultery is considered criminal--had to do with traditions of honor among *men*. Not to put too sexist a point on it, but "you don't do that to another man."

Wonder if the general has apologized to the wronged husband?

She won’t get “scapegoated”—if that’s possible when she’s neck deep. “Not guilty,” remember?

It’s her brother’s house. I’m not sure what he does though.

They are both tax lawyers, and she's also a CPA, and, as the above notes, they own a firm specializing in state and local taxes.

$2.3 million property?

Whoa...
Who is her ‘sibling’?

This article is so badly written that one could suspect it was dictated by Perez Hilton. In the title he calls her husband her "partner"; Petraeus is "shamed" former CIA Director; and "marched" is used twice to describe the trip from the garage to her brother's home.

Such gossipy news makes it easy to forget something as serious as a terrorist attack in Benghazi and a president who is doing everything he can to cover up his connection to the deaths of four people and his dereliction of duty. But the author can go so far as to speculate: " Presumably, the pair had been out that evening, possibly at dinner and it is not clear when Scott arrived at the home or when Paula herself left.

(I know. I'm guilty of clicking on the title and reading about this stupid "celebrity sighting" too.)

They aren’t smiling and he doesn’t seem to into the arm-in-arm thing with his hand in his pocket. How romantic.

I agree....very telling...

I think he's a doctor...a specialist. He can do better. But there's two little kids.

That is so infuriating. Why is it these tramps never put their children’s well-being first?

Why does the stupid publication refer to her husband as her “partner” in the headline? Each word has the same number of letters, so it could not have been a decision regarding space for lettering.

It's an English newspaper.

I guess that's how they do things over there now.
