Sen. John Ensign Gets Top Care From His Ob/Gyn, Sen. Tom Coburn

New revelations in the New York Times about Sen. John Ensign and his mistress's husband Doug Hampton shed some light on the relationship between Sen. Ensign and his Ob/Gyn, Sen. Tom Coburn:

WASHINGTON – Sen. John Ensign's former mistress and her husband sought an $8.5 million settlement from the Nevada Republican before the affair became public, The New York Times reported Thursday.

Republican Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, a friend of Ensign, acted as an intermediary in negotiations last spring with the lawyer for Cynthia and Doug Hampton before Ensign publicly admitted the relationship with Mrs. Hampton, the Times said.

Now that's what I call patient care!
