BROADWELL: "All Up In My Snatch"
The Mistaken Photo
Funniest moment so far in the Petraeus-Broadwell-Kelley-Allen love quadrangle.
The ABC News 7 affiliate in Denver says that while attempting to report on the resignation of former CIA Director David Petraeus, the station mistakenly aired a photoshopped version of Paula Broadwell's book with the raunchy title "All Up In My Snatch."
ABC Denver now apologizes for the mistake...
"It was a regrettable and an embarrassing error. We are mortified this appeared during our 5 p.m. news broadcast. The editor pulled the image of the book cover from the Internet without realizing it had been doctored. We sincerely regret the error and have corrected the story to avoid any recurrence of its broadcast. We are following up internally as well to avoid a repeat of this inexcusable oversight."

Someone in Denver is looking for a job tonight.
Here is the original photo and how it all got started:
Yes, we’re responsible for the Paula Broadwell 'All Up In My Snatch' meme...

But Obama promised in 2009 that all secret CIA prisons had been shut down. Here's the CIA quote from their denial.
"The CIA has not had detention authority since January 2009, when Executive Order 13491 was issued. Any suggestion that the Agency is still in the detention business is uninformed and baseless.”

The Petraeus sex scandal, the Arab Spring, and the lies about Benghazi connect to one another — and they link to fundamental transformation. Nothing like a sex scandal to get your mind off 4 Americans killed with no accountability.

Oh and last time this all happened back in the 70s, Golda whipped out her nukes, and won a big payday from Uncle Sam, as did Egypt. but now Israel has Dolphin subs and cruise missile tech so Israel might have been birthed from Hitler's womb of death, but it has grown in power for sure. They can float off any coastline and send 20 + warheads into the gamespace. Yes, it might mean that Israel itself is hammered with gigatons of nukes but you just know there'd be rabbis in rad suits the next day consecrating the craters to build even bigger on the dead means bones.
Now the captains of the world are mustered from their slumber. All hands on deck, to see the rockets fly, and drop to your knees and pray.
"[I]t's impossible to tell the difference between the tone of a reporter who we now know was literally sucking the dick of her subject and the tone of just about any other modern American reporter who is given access to a powerful person for a biography or feature-length profile."
"All In, for instance, will instantly remind you of Time's notorious 1999 triple-profile of Bob Rubin, Alan Greenspan and Larry Summers, a worshipful front-pager with the classic headline, 'The Committee to Save the World.'"
