Nebraska Lt. Gov. Rick Sheehy resigned on Saturday following a newspaper report that he used his state-issued cell phone to place thousands of late-night calls to women.

Menendez is accused of fucking hookers on trips to the DR - and more than likely fucked an underage one - and paying for at least part of the trips with taxpayer money.
The Nebraska nitwit made 2000 phone calls to FOUR women (about 500 each), but he used his government paid cell-phone. I'm not even sure what the problem is. I have an unlimited minutes plan for about $100/month on AT&T. He is the Lt. Gov., so I'm pretty sure his cell phone plan has unlimited minutes, too. So that cost the state nothing. Even is he doesn't have unlimited minutes, he was calling them in the 'wee hours" of the morning when the call rate is pennies per minute. His 2000 calls probably added up to a few hundred dollars - spread out over what time period? A year? More?
I don't doubt he should be fired for being stupid and embarrassing the governor. But it doesn't appear he has broken any law. The worst is that he may have to pay for the late night calls.
THIS you hold up as equal to Menendez?
