300 bucks an hour?
Sheesh!

[janetgreen]

$300 an hour? Does that mean that she has outstanding talent in her field? he he

Irony - it can be ironic at times...

[Chad Fairbanks]

Have you ever SEEN Bob?

[janetgreen]

Nope, I never heard of him. I wonder if Bill Klinton has her phone number?

[PJeffQ]

Will Beckel be charged with soliciting?

[doug from upland]

I always love this kind of good news.

Perhaps Mrs. Beckel needs to visit here: CLICK AND SMILE

Records: Pair Attempted to Extort Political Analyst (Bob Beckel) ^
			Posted by dogbyte12 On Aug 31 0:51 AM with 115 comments Northern Virginia Journal ^ | 8-30-02 | LAUREN DUNN A former host of CNN's ``Crossfire Sunday" and regular contributor to CBS ``This Morning" paid a Fairfax County woman to perform sex acts on him at his Maryland home and was then threatened that the incident would be made public unless he paid $50,000, according to Virginia court records. Bob Beckel, a political analyst who managed Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign, paid a woman $300 per hour to visit his home on June 27 and 29. Days later, he found a note on his car and a message on his answering machine demanding money and threatening to release evidence of...

I'm sorry, but $300 an hour is not NEARLY enough to service that sack of @*^%. They should be suing him for underpayment.

The article itself is so jaw dropping, that any commentary would be superflous. But, I can't help myself. No wonder Beckel was such a big defender of Clinton. I think oral sex, with hookers and young interns, is part of the DNC party platform.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Beckel adopted the phrase ``Where's the beef?"

Hey Beckel, it is one thing to ask about this, it is something else to display it. Funny to see him caught in one of the oldest cons in the world, the 'Badger Game'.

[janetgreen]

Surely you jest...

[motherof 3]

No wonder he was always defending Clinton.

[PJeffQ]

If he was a Republican the women's groups would be outraged that he exploited this woman and want him charged for soliciting...

[doug from upland]

I'm sure he put it on his expense account or he'd have to explain the charge to the lovely Mrs. Beckel, er, soon to be ex-Mrs. Beckel.

I think "Where's the beef" was what the hooker was asking him."

[doug from upland]

When I have time and get inspired, or is it aroused, I think a nice little song is in order.

[Chad Fairbanks]

You havn't heard of this guy? He was the demo-rat who, during the 2000 election, said he was going to 'dig for dirt' on republican electors (of the electoral college), and blackmail so they will change their votes to vote for Gore instead of Bush...

That's the Bob I'm talking about, and it's the same Bob in the article... like I said - the irony

[Ann Archy]

NOWHERE does it say he's a DEMOCRAT....it just says he's a liberal.

Bob Beckel paying for Lewinsky's...whoda thunk it. Payback for all the time he was so damn mean to Lynne Cheney n Crossfire!!! He is one OBNOXIOUS person.

A ...He wrote her a CHECK??? Shades ofCincinati's Democrat Mayor Jerry Springer.....Immoral IDIOTS.

[Mr. Mojo]

Excellent news. Beckel is a hack on par with Begala and McAuliffe.
