Lawmakers Return To Work

The scandal engulfing top CIA and Army leadership has moved on to Capitol Hill. Lawmakers have returned from a long election-season break. Now they're digging into the tangled tale of emails that exposed an extramarital affair of former Gen. David Petraeus. He was forced to resign as CIA director last week. Acting CIA director Michael Morell met with Senate Intelligence Committee members, who want to know if Petraeus' mistress had access to classified files. President Obama is expected to talk about the Petraeus episode in his press conference this afternoon. Marine Gen. John Allen, who succeeded Petraeus at Central Command, is fighting for his career. Pentagon investigators are looking into his email relationship with a socialite linked to the Petraeus scandal.

Socialite....Is this the replacement word now for prostitute?
