A political scandal riveting Northern Ireland has a certain cinematic feel: an affair by 58-year-old woman named Mrs. Robinson with a 19-year-old male lover.
Five separate Facebook groups with hundreds of followers have sprung up, lampooning the affair and comparing it to the 1967 film, "The Graduate."
But there is a serious side to the story of Iris Robinson, who also happens to be a member of Parliament and the wife of Peter Robinson — Northern Ireland's government leader.
The BBC reported that Iris Robinson allegedly solicited 50,000 pounds ($80,000) from businessmen so her young lover could open a restaurant — without disclosing the fact to lawmakers.

Big Deal. If it were a 58 year old man with a 19 year old gal no one would care.

One word: FRAUD.
Or the other way to look at it is that is over 100,000 dollars for a tryst. So two words, Boy Whore.

I don't have a problem with the sabertooth cougar issue. But I would think a lot more people would be looking at the money issue.
