Sen. Robert Menendez wooed a married newspaper publisher, taking the attractive brunette on a romantic getaway to the Caribbean, a tipster alleges.
The New Jersey Dem and Cecilia Reynolds jetted to Puerto Rico, where they stayed at the isolated beach retreat of the island’s then-governor, Anibal Acevedo Vila.
In a photo provided by the anonymous informant, Reynolds is sitting naked on a beach and suggestively smiling at the camera. In another set of pictures, they take turns posing against the same sunset backdrop.
Wrinkles to the story? Well, let’s see: the governor was undergoing corruption allegations, and the Senator was trying to squash the appointment of a US Attorney who was going after said governor. And the publisher, of course, has a cozy professional patronage relationship with Menendez, and… come, I will conceal nothing from you. I almost feel sorry for Menendez at this point. He must sit in his office and think, God. None of the other Senators get hassled when they go to tropical islands and schtupp* everything that moves. Why the hell don’t I get to do this in piece and quiet? …You do have to admit; it beggars belief that Bob Menendez is the only serial adulterer in the Senate right now.
Not that this will stop me from hammering the guy on this, of course. But I’m not inhuman.

*He’s from New Jersey, too. We’re allowed the judicious use of Yiddish. Seriously, I think that it’s in the state constitution somewhere.
Is it because Menendez cannot tell the difference between “peace” and “piece” in his internal monologue? I mean he IS a Northeastern Democrat; they are arguably more illiterate than the Southern ones…
How this schmuck got re-elected is beyond me.

New Jersey. Democrat. That is all.
Menendez may in fact be being victimized. Consider that EVERY member of Congress [both Houses] is handed a Blackberry as soon as he is sworn in to do everything on. The contract for running Congress’ Blackberries is with Verizon; which was the first company to admit turning everything over to the NSA. And, of course, there is all the other data collection which has no Congressional exception. Every slimy, illegal, immoral thing that they have been doing or known about is in a file in the DNC.
I have to assume that since this started in 2009, every member of Congress from both parties has been compromised, or had a member of their family compromised and is being blackmailed, extorted, bribed, or a combination.
So why is Menendez not allowed to go overseas on both the taxpayers’ dime and that of someone paying him off so he can schtupp either underage females or someone else’s wife like other members of Congress? Who did he hack off, and how?

And to explicitly elaborate on your comment:
Vice President Joe Biden said Friday that “at least five senators” have called him looking for a way to change their votes to support expanded background checks.
I think the answer to your question is that Menendez hacked off someone else who had the goods on him, someone not in the White House.
Oooo! This time we have photos! Nice!
