CIA: Bye bye Petraeus...

[Kazuya Mishima]

With a 24/7 news cycle, it’s downright impossible for reporters to avoid making mistakes. But–especially when lifting something from the internet–sometimes a little fact checking goes a long way.

America Blog reports that during a segment about former CIA director David Petraeus’ mistress Paula Broadwell, ABC Denver accidentally reported the title of the biography she penned about her lover as All Up In My Snatch. An accompanying video shows a snapshot of the Photoshopped book, undoubtedly lifted from the internet, being flashed on the screen following a clip of Ms. Broadwell speaking about Mr. Petraeus. The actual title of the book is All In.

If there's anything that would push her husband to go jump off of a bridge right now...it would have to be that.

Interesting take:

So all based on a handful of rather unremarkable emails sent to a woman fortunate enough to have a friend at the FBI, the FBI traced all of Broadwell's physical locations, learned of all the accounts she uses, ended up reading all of her emails, investigated the identity of her anonymous lover (who turned out to be Petraeus), and then possibly read his emails as well. They dug around in all of this without any evidence of any real crime - at most, they had a case of "cyber-harassment" more benign than what regularly appears in my email inbox and that of countless of other people - and, in large part, without the need for any warrant from a court.

From the Broadwell sidewalk a couple of days ago:



Sad.

Surveillance state is taking itself down? It does sound like whatever happened, Mr. Shirtless had no business starting or muddling in this investigation. He definitely had no business bringing it to Congress. I wonder if Mystery Shirtless Dude is going to have any friends after this? He pissed off his supervisors and managed to bring down Petraeus and Allen in an attempt to get pussy.

Further details: Kelley has hired the lawyer that defended Jack Abramoff and John Edwards. Why is that necessary? Especially since it sounds like her and her sister are in bad financial straits.

Twin Florida socialites who are at the centre of the David Petraeus affair gained intimate access to America's military and political elite through their high-rolling lifestyles even as they quietly racked up millions of dollars in debts and credit card bills.
Jill Kelley, whose complaint over threatening emails prompted the FBI inquiry that has ensnared two top generals, is mired in lawsuits from a string of banks totalling $4 million (£2.5 million), court filings obtained by The Daily Telegraph in Florida show.
Meanwhile Mrs Kelley's identical twin Natalie Khawam – who obtained testimonies to her good character from both Gen Petraeus and Gen John Allen during her own separate legal battle – declared herself bankrupt earlier this year with liabilities of $3.6 million, filings show.

Pardon my use of the word, but according to that chart, Jill Kellly's pussy has gravitational pull. I'm impressed.

That's how Pussy Do.

I've been thinking about Petraeus' future. Prior to this he and Colin Powell were the two most golden boys of DC.

He would have had all the expense paid >$100K speaking engagements he could handle along with multiple seats on boards with multiple hundreds of thousands and other ways to score giant bucks for waking up in the morning.

This has all gone poof and he may end up splitting half his pension with a future ex Mrs. P.

This has probably cost him tens of millions of $$$$$$ over the rest of his life.

That was some super pricey pussy.
