Three Things We Can Learn From the Menendez Sex Scandal
According to a report by Daily Caller investigative reporter Matt Boyle, two women from the Dominican Republic are charging that Democrat New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez paid them for sex. The ladies say the senator offered them five hundred dollars but then only paid them one hundred each after the fact.
Senator Bob was the subject of a CBS/New York Times poll in 2006. They asked folks to name the first thing that came to their minds when hearing Menendez’s name. The top answer given was “corruption” or “crooked.” Of course, that doesn’t mean he actually stiffed and then stiffed these girls. His office denies it and I wouldn’t want to presume him guilty. But oh, let’s go ahead.
What then can we learn from this sordid story? Three things.
1. Take a look at the girl in the picture above. Do you notice anything? That’s correct — she has no head. There’s nothing but an oval of empty space where a normal woman’s head would be. What the hell, right? Well, from this we can learn that Democrats prefer women who are nothing but bodies composed of reproductive organs, breasts and some sort of interstitial material holding them together. Since the Democrat Party says it is “pro-women” and offers to supply the needs of their organs and breasts at the taxpayers’ expense, women obviously have no need to decide which party to vote for or what ideas to hold and so don’t actually need heads. Sure, this might create a problem when women find they have nowhere to put their pretty little faces, but Democrat scientists are working on this around the clock and when they find a solution, it will be covered under Obamacare. So there’s no need for women to trouble the empty space where their heads would be.
2. Democrats always screw you twice. First by working their will on you and second by delivering a lot less than they promised they would. The women in the story are complaining about this but that’s because they’re foreigners and don’t understand that this is actually standard Democrat operating procedure in this country. Just ask the workers trying to collect their government pensions in California. Indeed, Senator Bob’s approach to sex could even be considered the Democrats’ central philosophy: “You will bend over for us and in return we will promise to give you money and stuff… and then will give you a lot less than we promised.” If that were short enough to put on a campaign sign, people would be waving it at Obama’s campaign stops. Instead it’s just been shortened to “Forward!” Because “Over!” didn’t sound quite right.
3. It’s Democrat, not Republican, programs that send jobs out of the country. I mean, come on, are you going to tell me there are no prostitutes in America who can be screwed and then screwed again? There are plenty of them! At least, I’ve heard there are. From, you know, other people. The fact that Menendez took his business to the Dominican Republic tells you the disregard he and his party have for the at-home entrepreneurial spirit.
As one of these women said of Mendendez: ”He lies. He says one thing and does another. [He] was nice at first but then later did not seem to care…”
Welcome to the Democrat Party, sweetheart.
Mr. Klavan:
You missed an opportunity, there.
It would have been a mite funnier if you’d said, “So there’s no need for women to trouble the pretty little empty space where their heads would be.”
Otherwise, you nailed it.
So to speak.
Carry on, brother.
Here’s a bit of obscure political history: Jerry Springer, Democrat, was once the mayor of Cincinnati. Yes, that Jerry Springer. However he did not get to finish his term. He bounced a check to a hooker, she raised a stink and the next thing Jerry knew he was refereeing wife-swapping fights on daytime TV.
So much for equal pay for equal work.
That’s not true! Zero pay all around is equal!
He could at least give the two hookers free Obamaphones.
Hey, Give Eliot Spitzer his due. He “bought American”.
Never quite thought of it that way.
Of course, this Menendez stuff is meant to distract from Benghazi — remember that according to Drudge it originated from legacy news outlets.
If this were designed to distract from Bengazi, then wouldn’t they have at least made up a scandal hurting a Republican? Come to think of it, I’m shocked they haven’t found a couple of random women to come forward and spred some lie about Mitt Romney. It doesn’t have to be true, or even particularly believable, just covered by all the major networks. All they’d have to do is fool about 2% of the population and they’d have it.
You mean you believe they haven’t tried and aren’t still trying? Remember, they have five days.
No one would believe it, because Romney is so squeaky clean and old-fashioned. He doesn’t even cuss, not even in private.
“That’s correct — she has no head.” Because she gave him…?
The Menendez stuff is designed to distract anti-Obama news outlets from Benghazi because the pro-Obama outlets are already following orders to ignore it. Hence it works best to have a Democrat take the hit. Whether Menendez was informed ahead of time about how he was about to “take one for the team” is an open question…
The next question is, are they going to give Menendez what they promised for screwing him?
This is the first I’m hearing of this scandal from my corrupt Senator. Banging Bob is damn lucky nobody in the state has electricity.
That’s what I thought when I read the story. How will anyone in New Jersey hear this story? And if they’re staring at the remains of their home, will they care enough to find a polling station to do something about it? Or will they have some more immediate needs on their minds?
The Lame Scream Media has to get their cred’s where and how ever they can.
Perhaps this is the most obvious lesson:
#4. Always get paid in advance.
But what I want to know is where is Gloria Allred? Can she not come to the aid of these poor women? Are they not as deserving as every other damsel to whose side she runs?
Admittedly speculation but:
4. Don’t demand government agents be fired when you are doing the safe stuff you think they should be fired for.
The Democrats should definitely get on his case for outsourcing jobs. Also, hasn’t he violated ‘fair trade’ practices?
What was the most shocking thing about the Anthony Weiner story? That he resigned. Why? Because Americans expect this kind of behavior from Democrats. If the President does it and can’t be made to suffer any consequences, why should the lesser Democratic lights? I used to think Dems had immoral policies, but after 45 years of watching them, I know they are simply immoral thru and thru. How can this not affect what they do and what they advocate? Who wants them as positive role models of anything?
If the “perpetrator” is a commoner, just looking and foolish to speak admiration of the cookies in their office or employ, it’s public humiliation, the Scarlet Letters of SM for sexist male, loss of livlihood and family breakup. Later civil action for the humiliation of the women/cookies publicly – or even sotto voce – admired.
But for democrats and compassionate liberals in the public trust and payroll when caught with their hands and whatever IN the cookie jar a tolerant chuckle that boys will be boys. Then given a TV talk show or become “pillar” of “elite” social and political clubs as examples for others that “crime doesn’t pay”.
Didn’t the compassionate liberals/democrats create the laws of their “sexism” and “sexual harassment”?
Guess I missed that lesson of one law for the representatives of the people and another for the people. In this wonderland where some of us still think we have equal protection in law.
Other Democrats which,unfortunately,usually outnumber Republicans.
Radical feminists, Democrats and my entire football team believe in empowering women through sex. That doesn’t make us wheezey liberals, does it?
Serving the physical needs of Senator Mendendez must be one of those “jobs Americans just won’t do.”
Another way to look at it: he’s outsourcing jobs to foreign countries! Why aren’t those labor super PACs running ads against Senator Mendendez?
I dont remember any Republicans involved in Sexual scandal at all that I can remember. All Democreeps.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Larry Craig, Mark Foley. . .
The list goes on. There are scandals on both sides of the aisle. The difference is, Republicans usually have the decency to slink away in disgrace, whereas the Democrats who get caught have no shame and usually continue on in the public eye.
Weiner went away (comedy gold there). Spitzer went away for awhile, then slithered into a TV show (cancelled now, however, I believe). McGreevy went away. Condit went away, but it may have been after an election defeat. So there are a few Dems who have graced us with their disappearance, but you’re right, there are many more Dems who have no conscience & or morals, so it’s just dandy for them to disgrace themselves, the office they hold, their families, and just keep on a-truckin’ as if nothing happened, e.g. Bawney Fwank, Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, Gerry Studds, Al Gore all come to mind here.
John Edwards deserves Dishonorable Sleaze in a special category all by himself. Not only did Edwards cheat on his wife & kids, but did so while the wife was dying of cancer, lied about it, got busted by the Nat’l Enquirer, and then lied again. He embarrassed and disgraced himself, his family, his campaign, his party & his country.
He really gives meaning to the phrase “lean forward.”
There must be two unwritten laws regarding prostitutes. First, never, ever pay by check or credit card; only cash will do. And, always pay the girls what you promised them; and then tip them.
Yuck instead of shaking hands with this guy, his constituents might want a shower instead. Toss in a little disinfectant, too.
Maybe a third law: Wear a mask. Makes it harder for the prostitutes to identify you.
Yawn. Really. I’d like to return to the days when politician’s sex lives weren’t news unless they used public funds. Thanks. I don’t care. (Whichever party they are.)
Menendez is notorious here in NJ for using government money for everything – and channeling large amounts of it into his pockets. It wouldn’t surprise me if he creatively expensed his sexual adventures and billed them to us.
Hey, these girls had a business. Menendez must’ve believed they didn’t ‘build that’.
I don’t know if I buy this allegation for the simple reason that, as one who has enjoyed the company of such ladies on numerous occasions over the years, they always make you pay up front and in advance. Even if you pay with a credit card they run it first, and then make you sign a waiver saying the charges cannot be contested later.
Wasn’t this the same thing those Secret Service agents had done, with about the same narrative?
I most emphatically disagree that Menendez paid for a hooker in the Dominican Republic.
We taxpayer paid for her, assuming it was a her, since we pay his salary.
Had to be his money, that’s why he was so tight with it. Democrats are notoriously cheap. Just look at their charitable contributions when they release their tax records. They are only big spenders with the money they take from others. Who is it that is conducting a War on Women?
I think there is a fourth thing to be learned here: Always pay the hookers! Just ask the secret Service.
You’d think that by now politicians of any stripe would have learned that there are few things that can end their careers faster than stiffing a hooker. (Either way.)
She’ll tell. Bank on it.
clear ether
eon
Well, maybe it was more exciting. A little afterglow, as it were. Thanks, baby, now I am gonna screw you again. Seriously, especially cause at that age you can’t get it up twice. What the heck, good job!
The Democrats would have disowned him if they were union hookers.
A fifty-eight year old divorced man uses a prostitute in a country where it’s legal. That isn’t much of a story. It needs a real attention grabber for a headline, something like: “Democrat One Percenter on Foreign AIDS Junket Screws Local Blacks”. Well – they do it to us all the time, don’t they?
Menendez looks like he would need a little assistnce with some Vitamin V.
Latinas in DR and Colombia drivig all the gabachos crazy.
Come on folks….the guy’s single. And isn’t prostitution legal in the DR?
We all pay for it one way or another!
Come on folks….the guy’s single. And isn’t prostitution legal in the DR?
Is it legal not to pay them afterwards?
Besides, the US has laws designed to stop this sort of “sex tourism”.
Don’t stiff hookers. That’s the only lesson you need to learn.
“I don’t pay hookers for sex – I pay them to go away!” – Charlie Harper, “Two and a Half Men”
Three lessons? Ok.
1) Don’t stiff a hooker.
2) If you do stiff a hooker, make sure you pay her the agreed upon rate.
…
3) ertdfg goes for the cheap jokes.
And that’s all you need to know. I’ll be here all night, tip the waitstaff.
Someone please this woman to give a detailed description of Bob’s junk. Let the voters know who this guy really is.
“the Democrats’ central philosophy: “You will bend over for us and in return we will promise to give you money and stuff.” That’s why all those people who don’t pay income tax live in Republican states, right?
