paula broadwell is also married, FYI. (wife, woman, mistress, cheating)

[ElysianEagle]

to all those ranting and raving at petraeus for cheating on his wife: paula broadwell, his mistress, is ALSO a cheater! she's married too, you know.

just thought i'd mention it since everything I've read on this forum re. the petraeus affair seems to revile the guy for being a scumbag cheater, but most everyone seems to be glossing over the fact that she was just as married as him.

i'm not saying this to justify the actions of either one. it just seems that the "cheater" epithet is being hurled at him a lot more than at paula.

thanks, i'll go back to lurking now...

Thanks for the PSA.

I don't approve of cheating for either gender. Why the new thread though?

I wanted some attention, that's all.

He thought the focus was unjustly on Petraeus' cheating.

Ok. Anyone who cheats, male or female, are scumbags. That's just how it is and how it should be.

Of course she's wrong too but Petraeus is just way more interesting person than she is.

This is pretty much what it comes down to. If Patreaus was a woman and she cheated it would be just as bad.

Personally, I think both parties are disgusting.

I don't know why, but I'm more disappointed by Broadwell. Probably more so because her children are so young.
