KUDOS to you Liz for the amount of homework you’ve done on this subject.
An ,uhh, “investigation” should be in the works, one centering on the multiple other issues TO THE EXCLUSION of the underage Dominican prostitute “issue”. That will have to hover in the background, echoing into the narrative of whatever is revealed about his dealings with the eye doctor. To take up the prostitute issue on its own would involve a long, counterproductive process that would only result in more sympathy flowing to Menendez , just as it did with Bill Clinton during the Ken Star hearings.Now that I think of it
the sympathy flows either way, since Clinton was not charged with “workplace sex with a girl young enough to be his daughter”, but with perjury during testimony. So we may be screwed either way.........
Could not agree more.
Someone should get CNBC producers of “American Greed” TV show to do a segment on this.
NJ Editor Bob Ingle’s 2/09/13 column-—“Sen Menendez still needs to supply answers about his physician friend”—— is the ready-made narrative for a segment on Menendez-—plus Ingle has a best-selling book on Jersey political greed.
JUST AN ODD COINCIDENCE (/snix)—Sen Menendez named one of the “Ten Most Corrupt Politicians in Washington” (Judicial Watch, Dec 2012)
A NICE FOREIGN ANGLE-—MENENDEZ IN AGHANISTAN PICKS UP HIS “LOAN” FROM THE BANK OF KABUL The Bank of Kabul is where US govt agencies deposits billions of tax dollars to wage war in that Mideast hellhole. B-u-t——if you are an Afghan insider, you can get millions in bank loans-—with NO requirement to pay it back (cackle). Afghan President Kharzi was seen loading billions onto trucks to transport out of Afghanistan (his retirement cushion?).
