"Maybe it's the job..."
Seriously: is there something about being the head of an agency which routinely proves just how difficult secrets are to keep that makes you say "Well, now that I know how everyone else fails, I'll be able to keep my stuff under wraps forever!" Or maybe it's just not realizing how quickly the tabloids will turn your name into General Betrayus. I'm gonna make y'all search for this one on your own. I don't have to summarize the whole soap.

What better intelligence position to be in than a sexually available biographer?
Screw him, and then really screw him.

Do you think he had any idea of the kinds of things that get the rank and file in trouble with security clearance?
I mean you would think the man at the top would know that any kind of fooling around that could be used for blackmail is bad for every other person in the organization. Or is this just another case of the rules don't apply to me.
Especially since so far she doesn't seem like the type I'd expect to be discreet when scorned.

And no one does revenge like a writer... but in this case, while the exposure seems to have originated with her, the latest version of the story doesn't have it as intentional on her part. According to NBC, she was harassing someone through Email, those sendings were investigated, and it eventually pulled the curtain off the affair. Then again, we don't know the contents of those letters and there's some suspicion that there's a third woman around here somewhere, so if she thought she was harassing a rival and got the wrong target...
As for 'the rules don't apply to me', I'm tempted to say 'general' and leave it at that -- but I don't know this one well enough. On the other hand, the Daily News reported that someone recently wrote an advice column and described a situation perilously close to what's turned up in the headlines. If this turns out to be him, we can head for TVTropes and consider a new page for Screw The Rules, I Have Rank! (Screw The Rules, I Make Them!, which already exists, doesn't quite apply here.) You could also shoot his DAW rating into the stratosphere, but I'm pretty sure the politicos will send him flying after it.
Of course, if it turns out to be her...
The columnist even pointed out that the writer clearly wanted people to guess who it was.

6. "The other other woman."

In this case, that's the one whose complaints about harassment led to the investigation. And she is...
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/ap-source-target-emails-petraeus-paramour-state-department-military-liaison-article-1.1200299
...getting the best of it. I wanted to use the Daily News link because if they made her descriptive terms any more glowing, the newspaper would be quarantined for radioactivity. Gee, they're kinda fond of her.
For now.

ABC News in Denver accidently broadcast an altered graphic of the book:

Only maybe PG-13
Some employee should have proofread that.

Poor guy.
I'm just waiting until I can turn on the 24 hour NC news station and not see them standing outside of the biographer's house.
Nothing is happening there. Well other than the one or the other of the FBI sitting outside the house occasionally leaves to go get coffee.
I'm not sure what the FBI is doing there. Is there some womanhunt for her I haven't heard of? If so why would they let the news report every 5 minutes that the FBI is sitting on her house?
Poor neighbors. I wonder when/if they will ever get their street back.
ETA, the FBI did come to search the house, but no one has been there since the story broke and the news vans decended, and sounds like the FBI hasn't been there the whole time. Interesting side note, Rielle Hunter lives in the same suburb.

17. "Peyton Place meets the Armed Services"

LAST EDITED ON 11-13-12 AT 08:16 PM (EST)
1) Powerful married older man in high-profile position has affair with accomplished married younger woman of similar background. Standard soap opera plot.
2) The two of them set up an Internet e-mail account that they both know the userID and password to. Then they send each other love notes without ever actually transmitting the notes -- by saving them as drafts in the account. Thus, no transmission means no third-party e-mail records -- BUT the account has their whole love note archive in it.
3) Powerful older man breaks off the affair for whatever reason.
4) Younger woman concludes that older man is having an affair with second married younger woman with whom he and his wife are friendly.
** SO FAR, SO GOOD ** BUT NOW **
5) Younger woman uses shared but now inactive e-mail account to send nasty and potentially threatening e-mails to the second younger woman --- but never deletes the saved but unsent messages stored in the account.
6) Second younger woman actually has an "improper relationship" (whatever that means) with another powerful older man who is a close friend of the original powerful older man, but she is not actually having an affair with the original man.
7) Second younger woman asks for help from FBI agent with whom she was friendly to trace down sender of nasty and possibly threatening e-mails.
** TO THIS POINT, IT'S EASY TO BELIEVE THAT THE SECOND YOUNGER WOMAN FELT THAT SHE WAS IN CONTROL OF THE SITUATION. BUT GOD SAID, "HA." **
8) Friendly FBI agent turns over case to FBI cybercrime division.
9) While examining second younger woman's e-mail account, FBI agents finds shirtless pictures sent to her by friendly FBI agent.
10) FBI suspends friendly FBI agent from investigation and potentially from FBI.
11) While examining second younger woman's e-mail accoun, FBI agents find evidence of "improper relationship" between second younger woman and second powerful older man.
12) This juicy story is still open, as the details haven't come out yet, but they could cost the second powerful older man his job and perhaps the second younger woman her marriage, since rich husbands do not like to be cuckolded.
13) FBI agents trace nasty, potentially threatening e-mails to originating account.
14) While investigating originating account, FBI agents find saved draft e-mails.
15) FBI agents identify the writers of the saved draft e-mails as being the first powerful older man and the first younger woman.
16) FBI agents tell bosses, including boss of first powerful older man, of identities of writers of saved draft e-mails.
17) Boss forces first powerful older man to resign.
18) Entire soap opera makes the news.

The Daily News is now reporting on the extremely broke finances of the military social liaison/whistleblower. Let's just say the glowing terms have been put away for the week.
There's also been a lot of demands to know why the President wasn't aware of the affair. So now you want the government in people's bedrooms?

I have a notion that if the President was briefed on every affair involving major personalities (men and women alike) on Capitol Hill, he wouldn't have time for anything else.

In reality, it appears the only person he actually betrayed was his wife.

Of course he does.
And while he may have remembered to mention that sexual immorality in general is a bad thing.
http://global.christianpost.com/news/cbn-defends-pat-robertsons-comments-on-david-petraeus-affair-84951/
He sure spent a lot of time talking about how she's a good looking woman, a runner, she runs marathons, she does iron man, she's like fit and hot and right there, running near a married man in all her good looking fitness, near a general, I mean you can't blame a lonely man trapped overseas with a runner, can you?
Did he mention she runs. We all know what it means when a woman runs marathons....or something??

Not exactly hard to see his underlying translation here: all women are inherently sinful temptresses and this is all her fault. I would expect no less of him and certainly expect no more.
I wonder if he's ever run a marathon and been tempted by the women within. Of course, for him, running a marathon takes only two minutes. We've all heard about his legs.

The Post claims classified documents were found on her computer (naturally, without disclosing what they were because, you know, classified), so repeat after me, Toilet Papers:
