Sex Tourism: Unanswered Questions In Secret Service Prostitution Scandal
Friends of Ours ^ | 04/16/12 | Friends of Ours

Posted on 04/16/2012 4:40:00 AM PDT by AtlasStalled

The alleged sexcapades by several Secret Service agents while in Colombia in service to President Barack Obama may not just be an embarassment for their country; rather, the objects of their affections may have been exploited against their will, and the investigation into the debaucherous debacle necessarily must include the circumstances by which the involved women found themselves in the meat market.

Legal prostitution in Colombia and other countries has generated a thriving sex tourism industry, and in meeting supply for the demand many women find themselves enslaved in the trade. For example, in Spain where prostitution is legal an estimated ninety percent of the 200,000 to 400,000 working girls in the country are trafficked against their will by crime groups including those from Colombia as reported by Suzanne Daley for The New York Times: "advocates and police officials say that most of the women are controlled by illegal networks — they are modern-day slaves." No doubt the situation is equally gloom, if not more so, for women in Colombia.

Just because prostitution is legal doesn't mean it's consensual.

Moreover, the age of consent is only fourteen in Colombia, and the unfortunate involvement of even younger children in the country's sex trade is pervasive. The Secret Service agents "had their pick of young girls with long, black and brown hair" at the Pley Club in Cartagena according to club employees as reported by the Daily News.

Hopefully, all the working girls at issue chose their profession of their own volition and are at least 18-years-old, but these are among the questions which must be convincingly answered in the ongoing investigation. After all, the Obama Administration insists it cares about women.

Why are we finding out the name, photo and interview of the supposed hooker?

Who is supporting her now?

How did she get to the brothel/place in question in the first place?

How did she know to go there at that time?

” My hypothesis is that the Obama campaign is purging a bunch of agents who are not “reliable” and who might talk or leak damaging material in the upcoming election. Most of them are probably married, so the blackmail is doubly effective.”

Very possible with Obama in power.

Now a new generation of SS is going to understand the importance of sexual self control, too. Free sex (sex free of morals and love) ain’t free; especially for those special agents protecting the President’s life. The liberal culture is poison for character.

Exactly. Liberaltarians and regular leftists want children to have “rights” to “sexual expression”. Remember Mrs Sasquatch met with “sex workers” in Bombay or someplace?

Later, I posted this:

Here is my theory about the media tempest over the SS agents:

No major MSM story is manufactured without a good reason.

If SS agents hired hookers, such things have probably been going on for decades. However, it would not surprise me if 90% of the allegations were invented out of thin air.

I think we are seeing an attack on the Secret Service and the purging of politically unreliable agents. Perhaps Obama wants HIS people in the SS.

A more sinister possibility is that they are intentionally impairing the SS and providing an excuse when the SS fails. What I am suggesting is that, perhaps, the SS agents protecting the Republican nominee or someone else will fail to stop an assassin.

We are dealing with a Maladministration from Chicago where pols are tied to organized crime and card-carrying communists. We already have the graft and corruption. The next step for a desperate Obama is whacking the opposition.

Anybody else think so?

My guess is that you nailed it!

"They are all Republican or conservative in some way, according to the site he visited.

And what website would that be?
