The person I WAS REPLYING TO QUESTIONED WHY HE WOULD NOT BE PROSECUTED UNDER MILITARY AUTHORITY.

He was in the service when the affair began, she was his biographer, and was imbedded in his command. Now stop it.

[cynwoody]

If he was doing it in the US he most certainly was doing it overseas.

Not proven.

[cynwoody]

This fling started as a camp romance in A-stan.

Not proven.

What has been admitted is that they only got physical after he shed his uniform, donned civvies, and became head of the CIA.

[Chgogal]

It was 9/11 and they could.

Why was the Red Cross attacked?

Why was the British Ambassador attacked?

[cynwoody]

He was in the service when the affair began, she was his biographer, and was imbedded in his command.

Prove it.

[Safetgiver]

J. Edgar Oreck.

[crosshairs]

We will get our heads handed to us in the next conflict.

Especially with Thurston Cary III as Sec. of Defense.

[xzins]

Is the whore with the testosterone arms also immune from the military code? I believe she was a Major Whore.

I don't understand who you mean. Can you expand a bit...give some background? I'm not trying to be dense. I really don't know.

[Mamzelle]

Broadwell was or still is a Major in some branch of the armed services. If she is still in the service, she can also be subject to criminal charges for adultery.

Who published this "All In" book? Their sales must be going wild!!

[Steve Newton]

Amen to that

[itsahoot]

Prove it.

You sure you want to go there?

[meyer]

Sounds like the general crossed the “administration”. One shall not cross the administration.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

I’m betting on Petraeus doing the administration’s bidding. A man who would cheat on his wife wouldn’t have any trouble cheating on his country.
