Ensign Admits to Near-$100K Payment to Mistress, Her Family

$96,000 should buy a pretty good time, eh?

What gets me is using his parents like he did. Have you no shame no sense of responsibility to your family?

So much for family values

His parents, his wife, his constituents...

dang, for 100K I'd at least give him a handjob. Must be nice for your parents to be able to pay hush money.

Hell, in Vegas he would be a king. But he is still a shit for what he did to his wife and kids. I really do not like, Reb or Dem, these shallow men who are in office. You do not do this to your wife and kids. And Indychick, wear a glove.

that's it

I had an affair a few years ago with a congressman from pennsylvania and when it ended all i got was a pound of ring bologna, a jar of applebutter, and an illegal with a push mower.

T'm definitely moving to nevada where the real men are

Wow! When you thing Conservative Family Values Follies is as funny as can be, they make it even more bizarre, even more funny.

Oh, to have a microphone in the room when John Ensign had that awkward conversation with the folks:

"Uh, Poppy, Mumsi, I'm going to need some money. See, I knocked up this girl and now I need to buy her silence.

"And it ain't gonna be cheap..."

LOL!!!

What was he thinking?.. Never use your families money and your inheritance. A democrat would have gotten her a government grant.

imagine that a politician who likes women

Having mommmy and daddy pay up gives new meaning to the word "family values"

It doesn't have the same ring as "Pullin' a Palin" but perhaps a new word can be added to our dictionary - "Pullin' a Parent"

Good one republican'ts!

How old is this guy Ensign?

And his daddy and mommy still have to pay his bills for him?

Must be another example of "family values" we keep hearing about from the Rethugs.

A spoiled little boy that has his parents get himself out of a "pickle'...

What kind of a "leader" is he?

Throw the bum out!And take Sandford with him!

Imagine that, a married "family values is my platform and anyone on the other side of the aisle who has a mere affair should resign but I won't resign myself and will also use government money for 'severence' hush funds for my affair" Republican likes women.

And a whole bunch of others throughout the entire country.

They take the corp money for campaigns, allow the corps to write legislation then leave for cheaper wages.

They are never concerned about losing their jobs as long as the ignorant and uniformed citizens vote for them agian and again.

These two losers didn't have to worry about their next paychecks like ordinary citizens and they had too much time on their hands. Professional con men should not be in politics anymore, should be impeached. Pa got rid of that horribly spoiled Santorum, another would be president - vomit in a suit.

Their wives adore them and eminate from the same ilk of money and power and corruption - who cares.

Get rid of all of them and put real men and women in office who care about real men and women.

Ooops. Let's hope U.S. President Barack Obama has the same deal with Michelle that I do with my wife: looks are fine. There's a photo of Obama apparently checking out the nicely proportioned rear of a 16-year-old Brazilian junior G8 delegate, Mayara Tavares, at the G8 summit yesterday. He and Letterman need to compare notes......

.......I'm now counting 61+ Democrats in the U. S. Senate.......How sweet it is!!!

It may be sweet but only if they do more for the good people of the good nation,,,if not...show them the door....quickly.

And the dems. will likely pick up 2 more senate seats in the next election.

You betchya.

Well we see where he gets his morals and family values from.

Those same values he praises and preaches to Repubs about.

It's still less than what Elliot Spitzer spent.
