Federal agents are inside the home of the Charlotte author at the center of a scandal involving CIA Director David Petraeus, who resigned on Friday.

The Federal Bureau of Investigations confirms that it has agents inside Paula Broadwell's Dilworth home.

While agents on scene would not confirm what they were looking for, nearly a dozen agents were seen carrying boxes and taking photographs inside the home.

Paula Broadwell, the biographer who wrote a book about retired four-star general David Petraeus, 60, has not been seen at her Dilworth home since the news connecting her to an extramarital affair with Petraeus.

They all sound unstable to me. Petraeus and Gen. Allen for risking their careers and family, Broadwell for the notes to her perceived rival, Jill on writing all those emails to Allen, and their husbands for being stupid.

That doesn't mean the Obama Admin isn't using their stupidity to blackmail Petraues and Allen. They both seem to agree with Obama anyway. Petraeus was blaming the pastor that threatened to burn a Koran for deaths cause by murderous crazy Muslims at least a year ago.

These generals have been overrated and the men who actually fight the wars underrated. They are the real heroes.

So let me get back to the question of why Obama switched Panetta and Petraeus. It never made sense to me.

The CIA is a certain kind of animal.

So, did Jarrett do it because she knew about the affair or that he had had affairs in the past and he could be kept in line.

Amen! We can only hope Petraeus comes forward with the whole truth. It’s one thing for a military commander or CinC to send troops to their death, quite another to watch them be slaughtered when you are in a position to save them, and don’t. I don’t know how anyone, even Obama, can live with himself after that.

She's also an Arab. Though all the Khawam family members I can find are Catholic.

Her family are Maronite Catholics. Despite recent muslim cultural incursions, Lebanon's origins from the time of Phoenicia 7,000 years ago are Semitic, not Arab.

And you don’t think it is relevant to find out if Rove is a very good friend with a key player

Rove has legions of friends and many are key players in almost everything that goes on. That's what happens when you're a high-level political guy.

No, it's not always relevant.

It is not established that she is an Arab — just gossip which I believe is unfounded. She is Christian and her family’s history is Maronite Catholic. Most traditionally ethnic Lebanese are Semites, not Arabs. Nix gossip.

IIRC Petraeus was treated at Walter Reed.

Aren’t you the clever one ?? Seriously, this situation has gotten insane. The one advantage is that by having been so publicly exposed for his infidelity, the humiliation to his family, etc., it does free Petraeus to just say/do whatever he wants, nothing left to lose.

Benghazi-Coward Obama laughs in his isolated Royalty,
Oblivious to those he rules, without their Liberty - - - .

Yon Libertee is only for Chicago thugs, you see;
Without Her, we the laboring class must do our work for free
So those with lead within their asses all about may lie
Withal impunity. 'Tis scandal worse than Satan
E'er before devised. A cancer deep inside th'American people lies.
Store up thy stores; and keep thy powder dry.

Karl looks very uncomfortable in that picture.

He was probably saying to himself, “Help, she has one of her big ****s against me!”

“Remember Andrew Parker-Bowles and the other “men” that thought it was a badge of Honor to have their wife bonking the “future king Charles”? ugh”

That is due to genetic modification. Their ancestors, who complained about the king or futureking bonking their lives lost their heads.

That left only the compliant ones alive to keep their gene pool going.

Also, it was an economical windfall to have one’s wife bonked by a king or prince and then become pregnant. The entire family of the bonked/impregnated women became financially secure for the rest of their life.

It is amazing how many men in the UK looked like Queen Elizabeth’s dad and uncle.
