CARTAGENA, Colombia — A Secret Service agent preparing for President Obama’s arrival at an international summit meeting and a single mother from Colombia who makes a living as a high-priced escort faced off in a room at the Hotel Caribe a week ago over how much he owed her for the previous night’s intercourse. “I tell him, ‘Baby, my cash money,’ ” the woman said in her first public comments on a spat that would soon spiral into a full-blown scandal.
The dispute — he offered $30 for services she thought they had agreed were worth 25 times that — triggered a tense early morning struggle in the hallway of the posh hotel involving the woman, another prostitute, Colombian police officers arguing on the women’s behalf and American federal agents who tried but failed to keep the matter — which has shaken the reputation of the Secret Service — from escalating.
Sitting on a couch in her living room wearing a short jean skirt, high-heeled espadrilles and a tight spandex top with a plunging neckline, the woman described how she and a girlfriend were approached by a group of American men at a discotheque. In an account that tracked with the official version of events coming out of Washington, but could not be independently confirmed, she said the men bought a bottle of Absolut vodka for the table and when that was finished bought a second one.
“They never told me they were with Obama,” she said. “They were very discreet.”

They should have just put all the whores on a plane to Vegas and took them to the GSA conference.
Heck, Obama probably used FARC’s security for the summit.
One that's hired by a third party to "entertain" visiting officials.
Or possibly one that plans to pull a scam of later asking for a much higher fee with the threat of calling the cops / drawing unwanted attention, etc.
I am guessing they do now.
Yes. And what sort of stories will the NYT and other MSM outlets reliably fail to report? Any news that is politically incorrect or damaging to prominent Democrats.
It just doesn't make sense that so many Secret Service agents would be willing to risk their careers, risk an international incident, and risk their health for one night of fun and games. One agent, sure. Two, maybe, Eleven? Not a chance, unless hiring and supervision of agents has gone to hell. If so, that should be a big story in itself.
Failure of leadership. Two supervisors led the fail parade. There’s your answer. That’s why immoral men should never be in a position of leadership.
