Cheap whores in the Senate.
It's not that we didn't know that many them were whores. What's surprising is how cheap they are. How many here would sell out your country, hurt millions of people, and break your solemn oath for thirty-one thousand dollars. corker sets a new record for cheap date.

For those who have problems with links, republican senator bob corker is using all his senatorial powers to block legislation that would adequately regulate the pay-day loan industry. One of these companies has given the sum mentioned over the years to corker's campaign. Of corker wouldn't have this clout if Democrats weren't so hell-bent (and I mean hell-bent) on courting and then rolling over for republican approval.

2. The Lack Of Self-Respect They Show, Sir, Is Indeed Distressing
Aldermen selling a zoning variance put a better price on themselves, proportionally....

9. Oh, but the money is just part of it. It is the contacts made from doing their bidding
that leads to jobs in the industry or lobbying jobs related to said industry that is the true pay off for those in Congress.

10. Of course you are right. Whore corker
will get a nice long term slot in the payday loan brothel, his own room and free delousing. All that joy for just selling out his country and his children.
