Reading your post, I think of prophecy. Russian, China sure line up! With obama being ‘more flexible’ now, batten down the hatches - the future is now.

Broadwell is married, according to the youtube linked posted a couple of pages back.

I doubt this entire story.

Reminds me a little of the Judith Regan and Bernard Kerik affair. Irrelevant tidbit: I emailed her at FNC when the biography she produced about him aired and I actually got a personal reply.

Interesting choice word - dream. It could be nightmare dream, I doubt it’s pleasant since it was right after 9/11. Less then a month later he resigns.

There is far more sinister things going on here. I look for Obama to be presiding over the NWO within 6 monthes. Either that or he will usher in the true anti-christ.

The pieces fit well for your explanation. The weak link is that Congress has to subpoena him to testify now and someone has to ask the right questions to get the right answers. Honorable or not he’s probably not going to volunteer information. As with anyone who testifies under oath he needs the requirement of being clearly and directly asked about something before telling about it.

Did Patraeus just last week begin to screwing this paramour? Was he screwing her prior to the election? If so why did his conscience just begin to bear down on days after the election? Why did he not have his moral epiphany , say 1 week prior to the election? Headlines..”Obamas’ CIA director resigns due to Infidelity”. Would it have mattered. Now, we have a friday afternoon (after Limbaugh) news dump....to give us all a toy to have fun with in round-robbin, inside-the-beltway know-it-alls who will tell us what to think....an non of it will refelct on the despotism and tyrrany obamagabi is going to inflict on our country. This is our heroin for the mind...it is entertainment.

Good post, TS. They know it's hard to keep up our pursuit of the truth when they continuously throw marbles on our path.

DADT could apply to hetero affairs.

Yeah, that story stunk. He was the agent-in-charge of the WP/NY office. He was let go in ‘09 and commits suicide before the election.

Going to be interesting to see if this affair is ancient history, just recently or still ongoing.
It does make a difference when you think about it.
My wild guess would be ancient affair being used for blackmail and Petraeus decided he had enough.
If that’s the case, Obobo may be in for *Mr. Frog’s wild ride*............Can only hope so.

i still cant agree with yo guys who think he is going to spill the beans, that is too much to hope for. however, one good thing we have going is even the dens of thieves, starting with the creatin axlrod, won’t kill a general and we’ve already had a sucide last week, so he could do it.

The first steps toward the weakening of the United States of America have begun.

Weakening happened the first four years.

Destruction happens the next four years. Then Sharia Law. Then Civil War. Then....

"John Bolton said on Cavuto that Patraeus can be compelled to testify and that he can be subpoened, and that he will be compelled to testify at some point."

Hopefully he won't pull an Admiral Boorda.
