And go behind his wife's back.

-- this is somebody who isn't raking the rules.

And it shows also a sense of entitlement I think this is a senator who felt he had friends in high places and and frankly if his right there to do it every one and that he would have people backing him -- he can get away with it.

Describing that that we can use our imagination to do that I think that speaks of it even more terrible -- and won't.

US senators get involved in -- is.

Commercial transactions and then don't live up of the contract from -- what's going on there.

And can we black in -- blackmail which is a serious problem.

One would think would please start to wonder what the moral standards -- -- for the country we're.
