Borowitz is always fun reading. Sad to say however, the underpaid hooker is getting more coverage than the last 12 drone bombings. Maybe coverage was a bad choice of words, but I didn't want to say she had been uncovered.
Still, it speaks poorly of a service that is supposed to be secret. They can't even go undercover without being uncovered.

Hookers Downgrade US Credit Rating
Shortchanging by Secret Service Draws Strong Rebuke
NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - Days after Secret Service agents
shortchanged a group of prostitutes in Colombia, the international trade
group representing hookers downgraded the United States' credit rating from
AAA to B.
The strong rebuke from the International Alliance of Professional Escorts
came after a Secret Service agent reportedly paid one of its members $30 for
an $800 service, or only 4% of the stated price.
The statement from the International Alliance of Professional Escorts said
that in downgrading the United States' credit rating it was sending a clear
message that its "members should be aware that doing business with the
government of the United States carries with it a significant risk."
"We are urging our members to avoid conducting transactions with the United
States and to focus on more reliable customers, like the International
Monetary Fund," the statement added.
Just hours after the announcement from the escorts' group, the U.S. Congress
passed the following resolution blasting the Secret Service for its actions:
"We strongly denounce the Secret Service for consorting with prostitutes,
which has traditionally been Congress's role."
But it was not all bad news this week for the Secret Service, which today
reported a 5000% jump in enlistment.
The agency said that enlistment offices across the country have been packed
with prospective agents, including House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who abruptly
dropped out of the Presidential race to join. Get a free subscription to
