Good morning, Wonkette darlings! It is Monday, and you have to ask yourself: are you getting a little bored with the Petraeus scandal? We mean, sure, it's fun thinking about the crazy grifting identical twins and hot (?) shirtless FBI guys , but the actual core of the scandal -- married dude and married lady with similar interests (one of which being the married dude's awesomeness) spend a lot of time together and end up boning -- is starting to seem a little played out. What this scandal needs is a counterfactual shot in the arm, such as: what if the FBI had never found those pesky email sexts, and then, a few years from now, it came out that CIA director Petraeus was having a sex affair with North Carolina Senator Paula Broadwell?

Yes yes, leadership is <i>What We Need. </i>There are several floors of Infantry Hall at Fort Benning devoted to teaching it to baby Army officers. Mitt Romney asserted that the mere fact of his leadership would turn the economy around. Paul Ryan was an &quot;intellectual leader&quot; of that collocation of great minds known as the house Republican caucus. Obama exhibited &quot;failed leadership,&quot; because he failed to execute Phase II of the transition to Sharia Law.
Indeed. One thing missing from most accounts is any mention of how devoted Petraeus was to the &quot;spiritual fitness&quot; of his troops, as detailed by <a href="http:\/\/freethoughtblogs.com\/rodda\/2012\/11\/13\/hey-general-petraeus-hows-that-spiritual-fitness-stuff-working-for-you\/" target="_blank">Chris Rodda</a>.
Because Louisivama.
They do seem to be a bit slow to learn. May it last into November of 2014.
Paula Broadstone is a real-life Tracy Flick.

<i>Has national security be breached?</i>
Oddly enough, &quot;National Security&quot; was Petraeus&#039; nickname for Broadwell&#039;s vagina.
wasted away again in mistressville.
A good offense is the best defense.
Now I&#039;m confused. I thought it was National Vulva.
Actually, Petraeus&#039;s reaction is the only thing I can respect him for in this whole mess.

And what have the voters chosen? It is puzzling.
Plus: Jesse Helms. Ews.
Competent, practical, and academic? She&#039;s already disqualified from being a GOP congresscritter, regardless of her positions on the issues.
