Emails show FBI investigating Sen. Bob Menendez for sleeping with underage Dominican prostitutes
The Daily Caller ^ | January 25, 2013 | David Martosko, executive editor

Documents published online for the first time Thursday indicate that the FBI opened an inquiry into New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez on August 1, 2012, focusing on repeated trips he took to the Dominican Republic with longtime campaign contributor and Miami eye doctor Salomon Melgen. TheDC reported in November that Menendez purchased the service of prostitutes in that Caribbean nation at a series of alcohol-fueled sex parties.

The documents, which The Daily Caller had obtained hours earlier from an anonymous source, also indicate that Carrie Levine, research director at Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), was alerted on April 9, 2012 to Menendez’s habit of paying for sex while outside the United States.

If the Republicans want to reshape their image, they need to purge the Progressives, starting with McCain, McConnell, Graham, and Gen. Powell. Have a news conference and simply state that the party has decided to have the courage to do want these Progressives not do and revoke their RNC membership, get a court injunction against them for using the term Republican to identify themselves or their campaigns, and offer to send a donation for membership to the DNC.

The headline continues the lie. He didn’t “sleep” with them. He’s a pig and how much do you want to bet the investigation goes no where. Menendez is a fake and so is his “aggressive” stance against Hilary.
