"It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first." - Ronald Reagan

[Not A Snowbird]

All but one of his children, including one of his daughters, work in the family business.

I really hope she's the bookkeeper.

[GeronL]

disgusting perverts... bet he didn’t have a family-values platform...

Maybe a Family Value Menu at his company??

Buy 1 Adult and get a kid for free??

[KeyLargo]

So according to the headline then he hired 80 Democrats?

[wastedyears]

Be glad the money his company makes is freely given, unlike so many who have made their careers in politics.

[Not A Snowbird]

I didn’t say that.

[molson209]

Let me guess , all his customers are Democrats

[GeronL]

No.

I wish them ill health and poverty.

[goat granny]

LOL your quick....I remember a few years back the government (for some legal reason) took over a bordello in Nevada and it went broke....had to close down..Only the government can lose money operating a whore house...

[ABQHispConservative]

Better him than that crook Reid. At least he is honest about where the money is coming from.

[Venturer]

It’s a legal business in Nevada and he is a businessman.

I don’t have a problem with it.

If prostitution were legal in other places many crimes committed by prostitutes and their pimps would dissappear along with girls who are forced to work to supply their drug habits.

One thing is sure you are not going to stop sex.Why not have it’s workers pay income tax, and have health exams.

I know a lot of people disagree,but today there are a lot of worse things than prostitutes.Gay bars and Bath houses for instance.

[Orangedog]

... bet he didn’t have a family-values platform...

Of course not...he won. Imagine that...someone running a brothel wins election in town where brothels are legal. I know it can be hard sometimes to understand that some people really don't like big government telling them what to do.

[GeronL]

Yes, they can have a children’ discount.

I hope the place gets a Chinese nuke test.

[Libloather]

depending on the season.

Sex has seasons? Learn something new every day.

[SES1066]

Let me see, President Obama, Senator Harry Reid, Speaker John Boehner ... which one has more ‘prostitutes’ working than this businessman. Frankly, I think his business works with an operational budget unlike our government. Just saying ...

[RoosterRedux]

I'm with you.

I don't approve of it morally, but legalizing it sure does improve the lives of the women and girls that work in it.

If you don't approve of it...don't go to a bordello. And in fact...preach to those who do. But don't turn a business idea over to criminals (ala prohibition)...nothing good ever comes from that.

[GeronL]

Some people will support anything with an R after their name. I'd rather just stay home than vote for something like that.

[Cicero]

Libertarian?

[alloysteel]

Actually most of these ladies working in brothels are not Democrats - when they do profess to any political leaning, it is usually Libertarian.

Democrats give it away for free, if they think they can succeed in corrupting some official with blackmail later.

Consider David Petraeus and his connection to Paula Broadwell, whom I suspect IS a crypto-Democrat.

[wastedyears]

So tell me, which is better.

Running a brothel, and taking money that people freely spend after working hard for it, or running a country, and forcing people to give you money they worked hard for, with the threat of large fines and jail time?
