FBI says agents at the North Carolina home of Petraeus lover; a search appears under way
AP/Wash Post ^ | Nov 12 2012 | AP

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — FBI agents are at the North Carolina home of the woman whose affair with retired Gen. David Petraeus led to his resignation as CIA director.

A spokeswoman for the FBI says that agents went to Paula Broadwell’s home in Charlotte on Monday night. FBI spokeswoman Shelley Lynch declined to say what the agents were doing there.

FBI agents appeared at Broadwell’s home carrying the kinds of cardboard boxes often used for evidence gathering during a search. They walked through the open garage of Broadwell’s house and knocked at a side door before entering the home. One person was taking photographs of the house and its garage as members of the news media watched.

This whole story feels like a distraction or smokescreen to hide something else. The man had an affair. And? Unless this Paula woman killed our ambassador in Libya, who cares?

Consensual search, they are saying. One wonders if the publicly cuckolded Mister Broadwell consents to all of this?

To those who can’t see the significance of this, might I point out that we’re but a half-week into this, and that all the facts might not yet have come out, much less seeped through the interwebs to our very own selves? Time will tell if and how it is significant, or not.

I think the plan is to "find" sensitive material at her place, which will allow them to lock Petreus up for a long, long time.

I imagine that the CIA has some interesting information on Obama, and that the good General, as head of the CIA, learned of this info... and may have been using it to apply pressure on Obama for something or the other.

This was barely a crime. The FBI guys in Florida almost ignored the whole thing

Greta asked “What’s going on at the FBI? They don’t do this until Fox News airs video of her at a conference? Is Fox News doing the work for the FBI now?”

I find it interesting that they invade the home of this woman searching
for some type of evidence. When is the FBI going to invade Hillary’s home?
When are theft going to invade Susan Rices home? When are they going
To invade James Clappers home? When are they going to invade Leon
Panettas home?

The Obamites wish to silence Broadwell and Patraeus. They had both better have a contingency of bodyguards or they will end up like Breitbart and the guy who did his autopsy......dead from arsenic poisoning.

Yeah. Saw that too.
What about when Greta asked that GOP chairwoman if she was going to supeona Hillary. The gutless chairwoman started stuttering.

***One person was taking photographs of the house and its garage as members of the news media watched.***

Unless I missed something, this particular point bothers me.

How is it that ‘members of the news media’ knew the FBI was going to be there? Were they tipped off by an anonymous person at the Bureau? Or were they contacted so as to insure media coverage - what purpose would that serve?

Seems that something’s not right about this.

Ileana Ros-Lehtinen is hardly gutless. She is one hell of a strong conservative. One of less than a handful of congresscritters who stood up to 0coward and Hillbilly in defense of Honduras. I didn’t notice that she stuttered, maybe she isn’t used to being on TV, but she said she looked forward to hearing Petraeus’ testimony and they would hear it if it took a subpoena.

We live in exhilarating times, actually.

We’re seeing Romans 1 play out before our eyes, and certainly in Obama are seeing at least a TYPE of the delusion to be sent on people when Antichrist appears. When that happens, of course, all who reject Christ will fall for it, not just Dems.

All has seemed to go Obama’s way. But I recall an epigram that describes his likely future:

With silver mines,
Recruiting grounds,
A general of real genius,

He thought himself invulnerable:
In one battle
He lost all three.

A consensual search? Could it be there was an earlier break in?

Or maybe she found a dead cat in her shower.

Did you not see her response why Greta asked about Hillary?

How much “juice” does Karl Rove still have in DC?

It could be that they are they to benefit Paula.

Rove isn’t distancing himself from Paula, yet.

Yes, I did. She laid out how evasive the State Dept. has been, showed her disgust with them and ended with saying they would get the testimony if it took subpoenas to do it.
