1. please don't.

[Squinch]

2. Seriously. Holly Petraeus has worked with Eliz. Warren on protecting military families from

predatory lenders. She is in a heartbreaking situation. She has done nothing to deserve notoriety or to be the butt of jokes. Other than living long enough to become middle aged. Lots of us are guilty of that.

A photo of just her philandering husband and his married trophy girlfriend, now THAT I would caption.

4. +1. (n/t)

3. I feel sorry for his wife.

She may even be a rightwinger but I still feel she has been treated in a cruel manner. That Broadwell and Petraeus sat there snickering behind her back. They would have to call an ambulance for him. Doesn't she have any golf clubs in the house?

She should kick him out, ditch the Dutch boy haircut, hit the gym, and enjoy her life. It isn't too late. No more frumpy conservative Mrs. general.

5. When it's all said and done

He still didn't leave his wife for the "Other Woman"....

[malaise]

6. Which is precisely what the photo suggests

He is not even looking in the direction of the star-struck gazing Broadwell.

So Sorry Paula, I'm with my wife would have been an appropriate caption.

9. Maybe only because having an affair is against military rules

Even for generals.

It's OK to go out and kill people and order people killed, but having an extra marital affair will lose you your career.

7. No.

[Donkees]

8. "Grace" followed by "Fall from Grace"

[lunatica]

14. That is a good caption

[Hutzpa]

10. She is star struct

while he is more focused on his wife.

There is a bigger piece missing in this whole Patraeus saga.

11. "Remember now. Do Not Look to the Right or Schwing." n/t

[lunatica]

12. I see Paula Broadwell sitting there grinning at Petraeus

Everyone else in the room looks pretty serious except those two.

I really feel for Holly. This is such a public humiliation for her. If she sees this photo she'll see Paula Broadwell grinning at her husband right in front of her. I just want to put my arms around her to protect her from this.

13. This thread is very low rent.

Shame on it's OP. To the trash with it, where it belongs.

15. "What's in your binder?"

[Squinch]

16. I'm assuming that when men look at Broadwell, what they see is a very pretty woman. When I look at

her, I immediately think: "nut job" and "barracuda." I thought it in that first Jon Stewart interview before any of this came out. Watching that interview, as I was thinking it, my sister said it out loud. Do any other women here share that reaction?

[fadedrose]

23. Yes, I posted it somewhere else. She looks like she's got a part missing,

or has an extra one she doesn't need.

[madmom]

17. What stuck me about this photo is

his posture. He looks pretty slouched, rounded or whatever they call it. Where's the straight back, isn't he supposed to be physically fit? His wife is standing up straighter than he is.

[fadedrose]

18. His posture distracted me from seeing the expression on Broadman's face...

So admiring, so devoted.....no wonder he caved. How many men could withstand that kind of attention from a younger woman...

Yep, he needs to get to the gym now that he's not working...

[WinkyDink]

20. PLENTY of men could, can, and do. She was apparently not his only GF.

[fadedrose]

19. Caption, Center Guy, back: What the hell is going on with them 2?

[WinkyDink]

21. "This is why I walk behind my wife, wink, wink."

22. Dexter (sitting at table) does not like betrayal.
