Current Event #3

This article is about one of the "escorts" from the Secret Service scandal accusing the agents of having no respect and being careless. She states that the agent she was with left his papers exposed, and had she been a spy, she could have easily taken them. She also confirmed that Arthur Huntington, the agent, offered her $30 which led to confrontation and drawing of attention.

I think this is just one of those stories that gains attention with the more talking done. This woman led him in for sex in exchange for money, but clearly states she is not a prostitute (while doing said interview in a skimpy green dress). Sure, she may be right in stating his carelessness, but complaining that he didn't want to pay her enough and that he showed no respect? Honey, you're a whore; what do you expect? This seriously irritates me. I agree with the government that she needs protection from the government in the fact that she let a name out, but she really doesn't have right in my mind to be bothered by a drunk agent who didn't want to pay $250 - it's illegal anyway! I think SHE needs fined just as much as the agents involved with Huntington need be, and Huntington deserves his loss of position.
