Randy Hopper (R-State Senator, Wisconsin).. it just keeps getting better
Edited on Thu Mar-17-11 05:44 AM by Scuba
Turns out that Wisconsin State Senator Randy Hopper (R-Fond du Lac) is not living in his district, but rather in Madison with his mistress.

Turns out that his mistress is a lobbyist. But it just keeps getting better.

Turns out that the name of her lobbying firm is....




wait for it....




"Persuasive Partners".


Republican response to Hopper scandal:

Wisconsin Republicans announced today that they have established a new entity to prevent future scandals like the one hitting Randy Hopper.

Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald today announced the formation of Wisconsin House Of Republican Ethics and Sanctimony (WHORES), with this press release:

"We are setting up WHORES for the purpose of:

..preventing selection of candidates with names like "Randy Hopper", which are way too easy to ridicule.

..making sure all Republican Senators maintain apartments in their home districts, in case the press finds out their wives haven't seen them in eight months.

..handing out WHORES literature outside local "mega-churches" each Sunday after services.

..making sure Republican lobbyist groups don't have names like "Persuasive Partners".

Said Fitzgerald: "We're sure our Republican colleagues are going to be very pleased with the services provided by WHORES."
