Secret Service agents busted because they refused to pay hooker: source

The dozen Secret Service agents sent home after a prostitution scandal in Colombia were busted after at least one of them refused to pay a hooker, sources said.

The scandal — a black eye for the United States’ reputation abroad — was revealed Friday before President Obama arrived in Cartagena for the Summit of the Americas.

The 12 agents were part of an advance team meant to secure a local hotel before the summit began — yet their attention apparently turned to taking advantage of Colombia’s policy of legal prostitution.

“They had arranged to have a bunch of prostitutes come by and one of the agents refused to pay a prostitute,” said author Ronald Kessler, one of the leading experts on the Secret Service. “Yes, doubly good judgement there.”

[snip] Prostitution is legal in Colombia, as long as it is conducted in so-called “tolerance zones.”

I’ll bet this is about coke. Hookers are a diversion. They say these guys are gone. Out of 12, you can expect a few to squeek. And wonder who back at the funny farm in dc was expecting some stuff. This is Columbia not Barrington Hills.

Agreed. These S.S. agents saw something or became awhere of something that the Obamanites don’t want the public to know.
With obama the best defense is to be offense. Dirty the men so their claims mean nothing.

"This whole thing seems so contrived."

Different reports coming from every direction. Strange.

Cultural cleansing of a native population by the elitists has always been deliberate. It is the way they break down and control the majority of a territory they are trying to enslave to their will.

I don’t know about the Austin talk show host’s idea of why it is happening. It is just where elitists with no ethical boundries naturally travel. They view themselves as superior to the natives and they want to rule over the labor and resources without uppity disagreement and rebellion. Read history.

I wonder if one of the fired agents is Michelle’s rumored boyfriend?

Thanks for the follow-on post.

I requested the Mods to pull my post. I wrote it, picking what I thought were the most descriptive words, but in retrospect decided I probably might have selected the adjective I used to describe the host more carefully in this day and age.

So yeah though, anyway. :D

The rest of us have to pay our hookers, but the Feds skate. I hope they didn’t give her/him syphilis.

More likely it is all a lie. As soon as the situation began to get out of control a SS agent would have acted by pulling out uncle sams checkbook and making everything go away.

Something else happened but the feds and the media like filling us with bs 24/7.

No one would ever have heard a word about this had at least one of the agents not paid for services rendered. His failure to pay is what made the hooker go to the press.

Total jerks. Now most if not all will lose their jobs because of this, the federal employee benes, and the high security clearance that goes with the job. Gonna be very difficult to find employment, except maybe as security for some Hollywood or sports celebrity

According to FoxNews, the reason they got busted was that the hooker stayed the night, and the desk attendant at the hotel demanded that he pay for an extra person, which he refused to do.

I guess that proves he’s a Democrat.

30 minutes ago CNN reporting that 5 US soldiers were involved. Now that story line is GONE. Very confusing.
