Who Said Democrats Won't Cut Costs

The questions about New Jersey Democrat senator Menendez keep growing.  Yesterday, the FBi raided the Florida office of one of his big financial supporters.  Allegedly, this Florida doctor was the one who flew Menedez to the Dominican Republic on his private jet and then arranged for Menedez to have "sex parties" with various prostitutes, including some who were underage.  The good doctor allegedly is also the subject of  a multimillion dollar federal tax lien as a result of failing to pay all his taxes a few years back.  There is speculation in certain media that the trips to the Dominican Republic were in exchange for Menendez helping the doctor with his tax problems, although there does not appear to me to be any substantial proof that this claim is true.  In any event, it does seem that senator Menedez could charitably be described as scum.  The funniest part of the scandal, however, is how it came to light.  Menedez is alleged to have promised the young prostitutes $500 each to sleep with him.  Afterwards, he allegedly only paid them $100.  Their complaints are what brought the entire matter to light.
