Politicians Are Not Patriots; Prostitutes, On The Other Hand

Politicians Are Not Patriots; Prostitutes, On The Other Hand…

If regular visits with prostitutes kept the political class from launching trillion-dollar war- and welfare programs, and financing Fanny, Freddy and the Fed­I would personally contribute to a prostitution fund.

These prostitutes would be patriots.

(I mean no offense to prostitutes in this post. They are self-reliant, tough people who provide a necessary, if unsavory, service. I use "prostitute" here purely as a convention.)

A million here and there for a good time; that's nothing in the grand scheme of the crimes committed by the Empire's foot-soldiers and stooges and the cost of these crimes.

I'm referring to the latest storm in a C-Cup over which big media is having a conniption. It is the scandal at Hotel El Caribe in Cartagena, Colombia, last Saturday, currently being finessed as an "alleged misconduct" and as a mere "incident."

"The Secret Service sent home some of its agents for misconduct that occurred at the hotel before President Barack Obama's arrival on Friday for the Summit of the Americas." The scandal involves at least 10 members of the U.S. special forces, no less.

Wouldn't you like to be "sent home" when you blow an assignment at work and leave the tab for the boss?

Note that not once did Dana Bash of CNN or Bret Baer of Fox News float the concept of firing the oink-sector scum. All share an understanding that no one who serves Uncle Sam and his agencies ever gets dismissed or disgraced. TSA pimps have license to fondle a crippled child or feel up the scarred breast tissue of a cancer survivor at the nation's airports–and their identities and jobs remain protected.

Yeah, "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp."

Another minor scandal, where dismissing the detritus involved does not seem to be an option, is the General Services Administration's $800,000 Las Vegas orgy at our expense, with GSA official Jeffrey Neely at the helm. Wouldn't you know it? Mr. Neely "just invoked his fifth amendment rights and refused to answer any questions in the committee's inquiry."

As to the safety of the parasites and whether it was compromised by the prostitutes: I hope so. I want working for government to be one of the most dangerous jobs ever (unfortunately, the honest work fishermen earns that distinction).
