Obama's administration might need a new name: the sex scandal administration. That's because a senator sex scandal making headline news on Thursday follows the Secret Service sex scandal in Cartagena, the alleged "US Ambassador was raped in Benghazi attack" scandal, and the FSA lavish spending for pleasure scandal.
No wonder there isn't anything getting done for taxpayers; everybody's having a jolly good time on the taxpayers' dime.
Democratic Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey is the latest to be said to be cavorting with women he isn't married to, according to the Daily Mail. And, like the Cartagena sex scandal involving those secret service agents on the prowl, the truth might never have emerged if it hadn't been for Menendez allegedly being a tightwad.
When are these bad boys going to learn?
According to his accusers, the senator promised $500 to the two women for sex acts around Easter time this year, while he was in the Dominican Republic. He didn't keep his word to the two women they claim, because he only paid them $100 each. The Democratic Senator, who has been serving in that capacity since 2006, is divorced, so he was at least one step up the morality ladder compared to some Cartagena agents, who were married during that scandal.
If his ex-wife is privy to any extracurricular sexual activities from their days together, she is likely tsk-tsk-tsking over this one, and given the double tag team purchase it might give an inkling why one woman wasn't enough.
The women didn't realize the man seeking them out for his sexual gratification was a U.S. senator at the time, they say, as someone else set up the sex deal, taking them to the luxury resort Casa de Campo to meet the Democrat who was staying there.
It turns out that "Bob," the name the women said their client called himself, comes to the Dominican Republic often, which explains his divorce, probably. And he is friends with Casa de Campo campaign donor Salomon Melgen, who has served as his host on at least one of those occasions--and loaned the NJ Senator his plane as well.
The whole sordid affair, if it proves to be true, is just another big stink mess for the Obama administration, and on the eve of the 2012 Presidential Election. The senator sex scandal could be viewed as a setup, to make the president look bad if it were not for all the other scandals that have kept this administration in the public eye. But his campaign staff might try to spin it that way anyway.

Ah, yes - MS. Hill using sex as a weapon. Thank goodness we still have Republicans trying to keep sex dirty. It feels oh so much more satisfying when classfied as sin.
Sky Writer conservatives on Gather get steadily more shrill as we approach November 6.
Don't feel too bad: yesterday Sue was cantankerous toward me and categorized an unknown number of human flood victims as rat-like.
"Obama's administration might need a new name: the sex scandal administration."
For the record, Menendez is not an official of the Obama administration. He is a US Senator, and therefore is part of the legislative branch, NOT the executive branch.
How about blaming Mitt Romney for one of the several Republican figures (how about Senator John Ensign, who got help from his parents to pay some hush money to hide an extramarital affair) who had a sex scandal over the past 4 years? I am waiting....
Right, but she didn't blame him per se and that is what you said she did with the first sentence of your comment. In case you didn't read that, here it is: "How is Obama responsible for this?" So you're still insisting on fighting with your own straw man. Knock yourself out.
Why is it always that when someone shows any kind of flaw or problem with one side, that you people insist on bringing up the flaws and problems of the other side as if that makes anything any better? I just don't get it. The only thing I can think of is that you people had siblings your age and when you got caught doing something wrong, you pointed out something you thought was worse that your brother or sister had done. Somehow it must have worked for you then and so that is how you still think you should argue. Well, you've got plenty of candidates here, but I'm not one of them. That's just really stupid stuff.
Toyota is a relative latecomer to the Chinese market, where Volkswagen AG , General Motors Corp and Honda have been making cars for years.
Is GM still there?
