What this country needs right now is a good distraction

I am astounded at the amount of attention being paid to another sex scandal, and I like what this blogger said:

It’s amazing how the Press will dramatize situations such as this one, while ignoring scandals such as Operation Fast and Furious and the Benghazi Affair which have stained the Obama Administration.

This is not to say that it isn’t interesting to read about the sexy identical twins (one a “volunteer social liaison” for the military; the other a whistleblowing attorney who was called “psychologically unstable and a liar” by a judge and who is suing her ex-boss for sexual harassment) who seem to have an amazing knack for inveigling powerful men in their machinations, and it is not to say that I didn’t enjoy this picture.

(I’d bet real money they love to play switcheroo on people. I’d say “Boy what a pair!” but it might be taken the wrong way.)

I have no idea who is the real mastermind behind these shenanigans.  Naturally, everyone is puzzled, which is probably the whole idea.

And the fact that the CIA is at the center of the mess does not surprise me. “CIA and sex scandals” go together like, you know, “soup and sandwich.” Even “love and marriage.”

The whole thing is a good argument for legalized, legitimate prostitution.

UPDATE (Drudge): SOCIALITE WHO BROUGHT DOWN PETRAEUS DINED AT WHITE HOUSE THREE TIMES THIS YEAR…

Natch.

    I see the ladies can earn Gasparilla Parade Buccaneer Beads in much the same way as Mardi Gras Parade Beads.

    This isn’t just a good distraction, it’s a great distraction!
    Is Jill Kelly a patriot who upon receiving mysterious threatening e-mails that might be a prelude to an attempt at coercive blackmail, turned them over to the FBI despite the risk to her personal reputation? Did she think the e-mails might be referring to someone other than Gen. Petraeus? Or did she really know who sent them and just want to smack her down? Or is she just another useful tool intoxicated by rubbing elbows with the powerful? Get the popcorn, this is going to be good.

    The Kelly girls are Lebanese.

    Yeah, it just keeps getting juicier. The twins’ financial shenanigans, power and society network schmoozing, the ROK and Lebanese angles, the Generals, the Politicians, the FBI friend, and untold panting puppies with drooling tongues. A real Rock Star Squirrel-fest.
