		<description><![CDATA[If Senor Menendez finally makes a 60K payment to &quot;come out of the shadows&quot;, who are we to criticize?  He&#039;s going clean, obviously.

He should be allowed to find a path to decency, especially since he is no longer &quot;sleeping&quot; with under-age girls, so let us not judge.

After all, he is a hard-working senator who, in spite of harassment by the oppressive FBI authorities investigating his generous friends, still finds time to work with his bi-partisan colleagues on the noble work of welcoming more voters onto the welfare rolls of our big-hearted nation.

Criticism of Senor Menendez is likely rooted in racist attitudes towards immigrants.  American gringos just don&#039;t want to see him succeed, tying him in technical legal red-tape, even as he tries so hard to reform.

Menendez&#039; action in paying the bill will be portrayed as a gesture of good faith, not as incriminating.  Wake up and smell the coffee.]]></description>
