These young girls just disappeared? Money, especially BIG money, can make problems go away. Poor things are probably dead. Dead young girl/teen prostitutes tell no tales.

Those poor girls.
First, stiffed by the powerful and his pimp;
and then “disappeared” (probably killed)
like the rest of the witnesses who
investigated fake birth certificates.

The MSM will be all over this. [/s]

Prostitution is not illegal in the Dominican Republic.

But it is illegal for Americans to have sex with children even outside the country.

And if I’m not mistaken, then Representative Menendez voted for that legislation.

The only items left was the doctors records in Florida and the FBI has scooped them up. Probably to keep them away from the prying eyes of the non-government media.
So after a cooling period the FBI will report that the investigation is being dropped for lack of evidence.

“Key people/witnesses have conveniently disappeared.”

They were paid off and told they would be dead and their family would be dead if they talked more. Payments to their families and the young prostitutes

Of course, the Dominican Republic PTB, Obama, and amnesty-pushers on Capitol Hill want this to go away.

Bobby (The Diddler) Menendez's troubles are throwing a monkey wrench into Obama's plans for amnesty---which was sailing along rather smoothly...even Repubs started to cave.

Obama confidently tapped Bobby for a lead role in the amnesty effort--as Bobby traveled far and wide as the point man for amnesty. Obama figured Menendez was a natural---him being a latino victim who overcame adversity (sob).

Now, NBC-TV reports Dem leaders met in secret to discuss the problem but are supporting Menendez, for now — publicly, at least.

You gotta believe the Obama admin is exerting molto pressure on Dems to stand firm (excuse the expression) behind Menendez. Any deviation could be fatal to Obama's plans to establish a permanent Dem majority by conjuring up new Dem voters from all those latinos pouring over our borders.

JUST A THOUGHT....wonder if any of those Dominican Republic little girls Booby likes to diddle were slipped in (excuse the expression) to Obama's amnesty plans?

======================================

Menendez's problems have effectively exposed that male/female child prostitution is rampant in the Third World.....and would be a collateral effect of amnesty.

The cynical among us see the push for amnesty on Capitol Hill concealing a dark, corrupt hidden agenda.

Underage males/females cannot legally consent to sex - therefore it is considered Statuatory Rape in civilized countries. Amnesty would change all that.

Third World girls/boys engaged in this activity are little more than "slaves"--- ordered about by money-hungry slavemasters. No one in that position has a choice---a "choice" that hypocritical liberal Bobby champions from US rooftops.

The diddling fee was $500 but Menendez supposedly used his US Senate Credit Card to stiff (excuse the expression) her, paying only $100. But don't bother to object----Menendez's Senate bill will read something innocuous like "bottled water."

In China and other countries, Menendez would be executed for diddling little girls. In Obama's Royal America, we discuss it.

Now Menendez is admired and looked up to all over DC for making this “go away” Sopranos style. He favorite Maitre’Ds at the best restaurants will now shake his hand and congratulate him with a knowing wink and a laugh

IF Sen Menendez were to be found guilty of traveling to the Dominican Republic to engage in sexual intercourse with underage prostitutes, he could face up to 30 years prison. The appropriate law, which would seem to apply in this instance, is the Prosecutorial Remedies And Other Tools To End The Exploitation Of Children Today (or the Protect Act).

Menendez voted for the law when he was a member of the House of Representatives.

“TRAVEL WITH INTENT TO ENGAGE IN ILLICIT SEXUAL CONDUCT. “A person who travels in interstate commerce or travels into the United States, or a United States citizen or an alien admitted for permanent residence in the United States who travels in foreign commerce, for the purpose of engaging in any illicit sexual conduct with another person shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.

‘‘(c) ENGAGING IN ILLICIT SEXUAL CONDUCT IN FOREIGN PLACES.—Any United States citizen or alien admitted for permanent residence who travels in foreign commerce, and engages in any illicit sexual conduct with another person shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.”

‘‘(d) ANCILLARY OFFENSES.—Whoever, for the purpose of commercial advantage or private financial gain, arranges, induces, procures, or facilitates the travel of a person knowing that such a person is traveling in interstate commerce or foreign commerce for the purpose of engaging in illicit sexual conduct shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.

‘‘(e) ATTEMPT AND CONSPIRACY.—Whoever attempts or conspires to violate subsection (a), (b), (c), or (d) shall be punishable in the same manner as a completed violation of that subsection. (rest at web site)

So what, they were just prostitutes. Isn’t being an important member of the Party grand? You even have Pravda covering it all up for you.

Pray for America

This has all the trappings of a really expensive cover-up.
