head of the CIA resigns

[Joe the meek]

The story has taken an interesting turn of events.

Now another high ranking military officer is being investigated.

Get out the popcorn.

Here's a little timeline for you

• The center of gravity in the scandal has shifted to a mysterious woman in Tampa Bay whom many of our top military and law-enforcement brass appear to be obsessed with.
• This woman, Jill Kelley, is the wife of a surgeon and an "unpaid liaison" between the public and a nearby Air Force base. This "job" seems mainly to include hosting and attending parties and emailing with generals and FBI agents.
• Paula Broadwell, General Petraeus's mistress, lost her mind and sent anonymous harassing emails to this woman.
• Kelley got freaked out by the harassing emails and called the FBI, thus triggering the investigation that, so far, has sucked in the head of the CIA, a top general, and an FBI agent.
• The FBI agent assigned to investigate the case lost his mind and emailed "shirtless photos" to the woman.
• Another top US general, John Allen, lost his mind and sent 20,000-30,000 pages of email to the same woman, some of which were described as "inappropriate"
• General David Petraeus showed up at a party at this woman's house in a 28-car motorcade.
• The woman, Jill Kelley, has hired the same lawyer that defended Bill Clinton in the Monica Lewinsky scandal and the same crisis PR person who represented Michael Vick.
• The woman insists that she has done nothing wrong and that she's the victim here (did anyone suggest she has done anything wrong?).
• The FBI agent who sent the shirtless photos of himself to the woman called Congress two weeks ago and leaked news of the investigation to House majority leader Eric Cantor.
• Paula Broadwell's dad says, tantalizingly, that "this story is about something else entirely" and that the whole truth will eventually come out.
• "Classified" material has been found on Paula Broadwell's computer, but both Petraeus and Broadwell deny that it came from him.
• The FBI just raided Paula Broadwell's house.

If this story really is about "something else entirely," we can't wait to hear what that is.

It is going to end up being about the cover up

Who knew what when

Sorry but that seems to be the way things go when stuff is dealt with like this

Hard to understand when the FBI knew this months ago that it was not nipped in the bud then and there. Makes no sense to allow it to continue even if the affair was over because of the potential for blackmail.

It was your deacon Rahm who admonished to never let a crisis "go to waste". What is that, if not "latch[ing] onto anything to give you a political advantage"?

Get your weak last word in, partisan. Will you admit the fact with a 'yeh but' or will you take the apologist tack and try to spin?

So you are actually saying this statement from Rahm is in the same league as spending millions, tens of millions trying to skewer a sitting President and then you call me Partisan? Partisan connotates prejudice and unreasoning allegence. Just because the Republican leadership is composed of shits, don't hold it against me because I hold my nose.

You only plug one nostril, then breathe in deep with the other and proclaim to smell roses. It's the same pile of shit whether you choose to see it or not.

After reading about the sisters in Florida and all this crap about Petraeus and now the other General, I'm even more happy with my "little" life.

You could not make this crap up.

This is what is known as a gotcha Minor :24:

Whoa.........look at this news report!!!!!!


http://news.yahoo.com/businessman-j...onnection-234313690--abc-news-topstories.html

excerpt>

A New York businessman who discussed a multi-billion-dollar Korean business deal with Jill Kelley said the Tampa woman at the center of the Petraeus scandal told him Gen. Petraeus had arranged for her to become an honorary consul for South Korea and promote free trade, and then asked him for $80 million to complete the deal.

Petraeus has a lot more to explain than simply getting laid.

I saw that story elsewhere

If I was to take a guess I would say she threw out his name and he knew nothing about this particular issue

But it does add to all the intrigue. He and Allen both have some explaining to do with regard to this and her sister also.
