'My wife's having an affair with someone I admire': Did husband describe..partner's affair with..CIA
Daily Mail ^ | November 10, 2012 | James Nye

Did the cuckolded husband of Paula Broadwell send a letter to a New York Times advice column back in July that revealed he knew of her affair with David Petraeus?

That intriguing possibility has been raised after canny observers dug out the July 13th edition of Chuck Klosterman's 'The Ethicist' and pointed to extraordinary coincidences between one readers letter and the now scandalous love tryst.

Writing about a deepening relationship he knew his wife was having with a 'government executive' whose job 'is seen worldwide as a demonstration of American leadership' the anonymous man offers up what could be considered in hindsight as striking information.

Funny, i was just reading this article 3 minutes ago.

I was reading this in an other article:

“At some point after Petraeus was sworn in as CIA director on Sept. 6, 2011, the woman broke up with him. However, Petraeus continued to pursue her, sending her thousands of emails over the last several months, raising even more questions about his judgment”

Seems like Gen Petraeus has been really occupied lately.
It’s kind of scary, sounds like he’s almost stalking her.

Washington is a snake pit of corruption and debauchery. This man’s letter could have been written by many spouses both male and female.

I thought she broke off the affair prior to September 2011. Wasn’t this letter to the NYT more recent?

Heck, it could have been planted by the WH.

I profoundly sympathize with the skank's husband. I know all too well what it is like to endure that sort of suffering. Bur from the remove of many years, I can say honestly that writing a letter to the newspaper of record for the enemy is not a cry for help. It is a passive-aggressive way of blowing the whistle. Someone who is in government, knows the CIA, and knows how things operate also knows that his letter is a certain security breach. He knew what he was doing.

May God heal his justifiable fury and his broken heart, and mend the marriage. What a tragedy for everyone.

While Mr. Petraeus was still a general, he had email exchanges with the woman, but there wasn’t a physical relationship, the person said. The affair began after Mr. Petraeus retired from the Army in August 2011 and ended months ago, the person said.

Ahhhhhh....lthe Democrats and their belief in “The Higher Calling”. Everything that happens in a Democrat administration is OK because they answer to “A Higher Calling”. This lover of this letter writer’s wife was answering to the higher calling of screwing his wife. The Obama administration answers to the higher calling of putting money in their pockets.
Look at the photos of this woman. Does she appear to be a timid wallflower? Oh, buddy, there are some women who have to be the center of attention everywhere they go. You married one.

He must have had a very steamy and hottest affair with her her the night before he passed out at a CONgressional hearing. When the brain travels down to the groin area, you get totally lost!!!

Was he using Viagra???

Broadwell will be questioned extensively by the FBI, CIA, DIA and the State Department then released only to have a fatal car crash on the way back home...

It looks like that episode was from Wednesday January 25, 2012.
I wonder if she had broken up with Petraeus by then and was currently in the middle of recieving thousands of e-mails.

That whole push-up thing with the husband was kind of creepy.
She’s something else though...

Timeline is total barbara streisand. Seems like a fairy tale concocted to avoid a court martial.

I simple “i hereby resign for personal reasons” seems as if it would have been enough. Maybe Petraeus was asked to make the admission in his resignation letter as part of an agreement not to be court-marshalled...

Planned parenthood is sending her a year's supply of condums.

She also received a "congratulations on your accomplishment" from Fluke.

Naw...nailing her is only half of the story.

Petreaus is their target. We need Ollie North to look into this.
