but can someone PLEASE tell me what the extramarital affairs of a military official have to do with anything that should be national news... Did I miss something? I mean great googly moogly! Military men are notorious for being cheating turds...Maybe I'm just ranting because I'm tired of hearing it! What's your take on it? (As a confession... I will not confirm or deny that I may or may not be procrastinating a psychology paper in order to discuss this...

)
The length of a minute depends on which side of the bathroom door you are standing on!

What do you mean that's the wrong side? Tastes great to me!

I don't care about his personal life. I'm not sure why anyone else does, either.
Multiple things:
a. The CIA Director having an extramarital affairs opens up a potential blackmail situation which could compromise national security
b. The mistress gave a speech and made certain comments that made it seem as if she had been given classified information that she should not have been privvy too - also compromising national security
c. Classified documents were found on her laptop that were given to her by him - also compromising national security.
It isn't about his personal life. It is about what has he told her or what information has he given her that she should not have been given. See B above.
Lady! You are a **teacher** you need to be up to date on your current events!!
Also ditto Runnergirl.
Alsoalso, this story is a whole bag of crazy. General has affair with biographer who sends threatening emails to party planner who she sees as a threat for generals affection. Party planner asks FBI friend (who shes had some involvement with?) to start investigation which reveals her inappropriate relationship with another general. Both generals are close enough to be a witness for her sisters custody case. FBI agent gets removed from the case after people learn he sent shirtless picture texts to the party planner too. Yeah, that's quite the web of ridiculousness that people want to read about and therefore newsworthy.
Agree with all of this. It's so absurd, and so a lot of people are starting to wonder A) What else is being covered up, and
Where all this is going to end.
my bookshelf!
Bloggy
I kind of love it too, but it's slightly unsettling that these are the people running the "intelligence" sector of our military/government. I honestly don't give two sh*ts who sleeps with whom, but the overall inability to be discreet and avoid this whole circus kind of blows my mind. I know military/political leaders/men in power in general are notorious for this sort of thing, but I guess I find this level of unprofessionalism amazing. Given the things the FBI/CIA regularly pull off that none of us ever know about, this whole thing is kind of funny (funny-perplexing, not funny-haha).
