Gloria Allred joins Petraeus scandal fray to represent Jill Kelley's twin

It's so reliable now that it's nearly a law of physics: when a scandal generated by celebrities hits its salacious peak, celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred enters the fray.

Allred's latest engagement is likely to bring more tabloid juice to the already pretty kooky cast of characters surrounding the David Petraeus scandal. Allred will represent Jill Kelley's twin, Natalie Khawam, who appears to share the same elitist political ambitions – and spotty personal finance history – as her sister.

Gloria once again gets maligned. The sexism in this whole story is unbelievable.

1. I don't know this person

I take it she's a high profile lawyer? If she's female, defending a female anywhere near a 'sex scandal' it's going to be bad.

2. you dont know allred? or kelly? kelly i could understand.

allred though? bad bad feminist.

4. She is a famous lawyer but more than that...

she was a rape victim when she was younger and she is also a huge feminist. That's part of the reason I thought our group would be interested.

3. yes it is, the sexism. and reading about what she is actually defending, i get that.

kelly seems to be peripheral. and for the whole kid issue to come in, hearing little of the facts, i could see why kelly would be effected. not to mention how it would effect her career.

but, i really do not know much about the kellys issue. i have not been following that at all.

5. I noticed how the msm is always seem to be putting this very sucessful...

female lawyer down. And I note how Gloria represents tons of women.

6. i havent been watching msm. actually i do not watch, ever, lol. they drive me mad.

but, there is another thread on broadwell and texasgal was saying some shit, what they were saying.

crazy, ingrained stuff.

i do like allred. especially since we had a post on her about 3, 4 months ago and there were a couple posters that were well familiar with her. one had met her and had a lot of inside about the woman. i always accepted general opinion of her, without knowledge. once i got more info on the woman, that was not so slanted, i really started respecting, appreciating her and it took me back to once again, .....

why the hell am i allowing these anti woman, anti feminist people tell me what woman to listen to. tell me what woman to dismiss.

this woman kicks my ass in accomplishments.

damn right i am going to hold her up.

speak out allred, always, and i am there.
