In one of her emails to Kelley, Broadwell accuses Kelley of inappropriately touching Petreaus

in an intimate manner under a table! Am I the last one to know this?

Also interesting is that Blackwell and Petreus "avoided leaving a trail of emails by sharing the passwords to their accounts, and writing messages left in the draft folder for the other to read but which were never sent."

feeling up Petreus? Where was Broadwell getting her information? Did Kelley or her evil twin make a pass at Petreus and Petreus tell Broadwell about it?

What the heck is that supposed to mean?

A former member of the general's military staff told the Washington Post that Kelley was a "self-appointed" go-between for US central command officers in Florida and Middle East government officials. Kelley and her siblings were born in Lebanon and brought to the US as small children.

The same official told the paper that "Kelley's presence was often a bit puzzling to the Petraeus staff but the officer said there was never any indication that her relationship with the general was anything more than social".

Broadwell appears to have feared there was more to it than that. One of her messages accused Kelley of touching Petraeus under a table in an intimate manner and warned her to stay away from the general.

If Petraeus gave her the password for a government account, no wonder he resigned.
