Jill Kelley, the woman who dropped a dime on Gen. Petraeus’s mistress Paula Broadwell, which got the ball rolling on an FBI investigation on the affair, has been having her own extra marital affair with Gen. John Allen, the commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan.
From Fox News.
The widening scandal surrounding David Petraeus’ affair has come to center not only on his mistress, but another woman — described as a Tampa socialite — whose relationship with the key players has raised tantalizing questions.
Jill Kelley is a well-connected housewife who lives with her surgeon husband in a Florida mansion where they entertain the military’s top brass. The 37-year-old mother of three is also a close family friend of Petraeus, 60, and according to sources regularly went shopping with the retired general’s wife of 37 years, Holly.
Practically every recent development in the case seems to somehow involve Kelley.
Emails sent from Petraeus’ biographer, Paula Broadwell, to Kelley ultimately led to the FBI’s discovery that Broadwell and Petraeus were having an affair. Further, the FBI agent Kelley originally alerted about the emails was later taken off the case after concerns about his conduct, Fox News has learned — including accusations that he sent shirtless photos of himself to Kelley.
But in the latest revelations, federal authorities are now reviewing between 20,000 and 30,000 pages of “potentially inappropriate” emails and other communications between Kelley and Gen. John Allen, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan. That’s an average of at least between 27 and 41 pages of emails a day.
The nature of those emails is unclear, but apparently serious enough to merit an internal Pentagon probe. A senior defense official said that some of the documents and emails, many of which are emails sent from 2010 through 2012, were “flirtatious.”
The emails would have spanned Allen’s time as the deputy commander of Central Command in Tampa and his tenure as commander in Afghanistan, which began in July 2011. Allen’s nomination to become the next commander of U.S. European Command and the commander of NATO forces in Europe has since been put on hold. Allen, who is married and was in Washington this week for his now-delayed nomination hearing, denies wrongdoing.
Jeezustapdancing Christ. 20,000 to 30,000 pages of “flirtation”. Hot and heavy is an understatement.
And of course, this is just another transgression that Obama is totally clueless about. No one told him. He didn’t know. He was totally in the dark. Etc.
This clusterfuck has yet another character. An FBI agent identified as Frederick Humphries, who was involved in the investigation, has been taken off the case because he became so enamored with Kelley that he sent shirtless photos of himself to her.
Apparently, these two vixens mesmerize every man that catches their eye….and other parts of their anatomy.
In the great current scheme of things, I couldn’t care less about the bedroom habits of Generals and their mistresses. Not that it isn’t a scandal of integrity and ethics, it’s just that the philandering between these four people is a tabloid distraction from the serious economic and foreign policy disasters created by Obama’s corrupt regime. These indiscretions pale in comparison to the lies, cowardice, subversion and rotten malfeasance like Fast and Furious, Syria gunrunning and the handling of the Al Qaeda attack on the American embassy in Libya.
Every breaking scandal and criminal act leading up to the election was politically engineered by the Obama hacks in the main stream media not to be openly discussed until after the election. Fox News, conservative talk radio, and right-leaning bloggers are the only media outlets that investigated, questioned, and raised red flags.
The average American can’t grasp the importance of discarding useless bullshit and focusing on the actions of government officials that affect their lives and the direction of this country. They’re easily manipulated and distracted.
Obama’s reelection is concrete proof.
Looking like the logic you present is very sound:

Our flag rank officers are completely corrupted, completely dishonorable. Our entire leadership is an utter disgrace.
I have a very strong suspicion these two men know a lot about Benghazi that we do not yet or ever will know. It appears that they are being hung out to dry.
Consider this. Obama knew all along. Patraeus makes his statement in the news about the CIA never denying help to anyone. Then Holder’s folks pay Patraeus a visit. Keep everything quiet until after the election and Holder will let this go as a bad judgment problem. Say any more and it is trial for treason.
Patraeus has to be punished. Being the good knuckle busters and knee cap breakers these guys are they hold some back. If Patraeus talks, he gets nailed. He can quit and go away, but if he says more, he goes to jail.
There is a lot going on behind the scenes here. This is a shake down. This is the Chicago thug way of getting a bunch of nervous hooligans back in line. You talk, you get your tongue cut out. You cooperate, you get sent to see the fishes.
OTR,
I think Petraeus operated under the belief that the Obama regime would keep the affair quiet in exchange for his perjury during his testimony on Benghazi. He parroted the bullshit party line on the video like a good little PC General, and they screwed him anyway. Maybe the next time around, he’ll tell the truth. Funny how a lot of things are coming out now that the election is over.
