A source in the Secret Service told CBS News that one or more of the officers was involved with prostitutes and that there was a dispute over payment. One prostitute went to the police, who notified the State Department.
According to sources two of the Secret Service personnel sent home were supervisors; the rest were part of a detail assigned to logistics. None of those relieved of duty was a member of the president's protective detail.
On "CBS This Morning: Saturday," Kessler said the Secret Service has a culture of corner-cutting.
"They don't have enough agents, they don't even put people through metal detectors sometimes because there's pressure to let everybody in," Kessler said. "It's like letting passengers in an airplane without putting them through metal detectors. They don't keep up-to-date with the latest firearms. They don't even do physical tests. So, it's a culture that leads to this kind of problem."

Glad I could oblige. I was wondering how long it would take the bleached blond guitar player to trot out her socialist Fanny on this thread. Have another Hennessy Brandy and calm down.
