Report: Baucus' Girlfriend Worked on His Divorce While on His Staff
FoxNews.com ^ | 12/11/09 | Staff

Melodee Hanes, Baucus' former state director and now his live-in girlfriend, reportedly met at least twice with the Montana Democrat's divorce attorney to talk about the Baucuses' divorce eight months before the senator and his wife separated.

The last person to know that Sen. Max Baucus wanted a divorce may have been his wife of 25 years.

Hanes, Baucus' former state director, reportedly met at least twice with the Montana Democrat's divorce attorney eight months before the senator and his wife separated.

Gee, I wonder if Olbermann will be calling for Baucus’ impeachment like he was with Sanford. Olbie became strangely quiet on that issue after the vote for Sanford’s impeachment got exactly one vote.

"Katie Couric is too busy dancing to report on the Baucus Affair..."

Is that a dollar bill in her G-string, or has she broken out with a fungus?

Put not your trust in princes.

As applicable here, don’t trust no politicians for nuthin’.

Scum Republicans are as bad as scum Democrats. In fact, they are worse. Everyone knows Democrats are scum. At least some of us want to believe there a few good Republicans.

I saw that. I just shook my head and thought, at least they included Kwayme Kilpatrick, I had forgotten about him. But, you’re right, Eliot Spitzer stood out by his absence.

"These are both purportedly photos of Ms Hanes. Quite a difference. "

By the looks of it, I'd guess about 15 years of difference. And, if that PC on behind her is any indication, I bet I'm right.

With all of the "affairs" going on in upper circles, it's beginning to be obvious that it might not be obama and his czar-goons running the country, but leaders' girlfriends.

Just a wild thought...
