In reply to the discussion: Well, well, well, Paula Broadwell is well-connected with... David Gergen [View all]Carolina
(6,960 posts)35. Petraeus is a dick
but women who willingly consort with married men are not innocent victims. And this one certainly is not given that the whole thing blew up in her face (and his... what karma) because of her threatening emails to someone she perceived as a rival for his affection. She's so special... how dare he have, or seem to have, someone else!
Fuck her; I have no pity for this woman and women like her who leave a wake of hurt, betrayal, and wrecked families... While the men are at fault and I do not exonerate them one bit, women like her are something I cannot say on this board or I'll be flamed or alerted on.
The only victim here is Mrs. Petraeus! And that's not 1950s. Ask any woman who's been in her shoes in 1990, 2000, or 2012

I don't see WHY she would want to take down Petraeus, (if that was her intent).
