A Lusty Affair Where The Cheater Always Win

“Money and women are the most sought after and the least known about of any two things we have.”— Will Rogers

Sometimes- late at night- it happens. I see the commercial for Booty Call. I don't know what channel this commercial usually airs on, but I know it is not on a porn site because I don't order the porn channel.

But there the commercial is: one is done with a joke (a pun) "You know the leading cause of divorce is marriage?" And then there is the techno type music one where all forms of desirable bodies are dancing in enticing ways. There has to be a market for this service because the commercial has been around for a while.

I stumbled across an article featuring advice on how to cheat on your mate. To many, the thought of being able to cheat and not getting caught, is actually the rush they are after more so than the actual sexual tryst. Let's look at the secrets of cheating. The advice begins with why a person (in this case a man) would think about cheating in the first place:

1. A woman is most attractive when you don't know a thing about her.

I think this is a true statement. Mystery is intoxicating and arouses lust from the imaginings of our own brain filling in the unknown with our own secret desires. The article goes from this point to the place where you are now engaging in the affair.

2. While you're having your affair you need to make up an alternate persona for yourself. Hiding the true you not leaving any clues to the one being deceived as to who you really are.

3. If your girlfriend is getting suspicious of you the best course of action is to get even more suspicious of her. That's right, begin to accuse her of horrible treachery and lies. If it must be done in machine gun fashion; a barrage of attacks, so be it. You are the one who has your back up against the wall.

But the author of the article ends his tips with a inevitable conclusion: 4. At some point you will be caught. I never made any guarantees to the contrary.

These tips were given for a person who had an attraction to another person while turning a blind eye to promises of fidelity to the person he had made the promises of faithfulness to.

I want to put a spin on this and turn this lustful relationship into an affair between a man and his money and see what happens. Remember, that money is intoxicating and the pursuit of it is the climax for those who lust after it.

“Money, it turned out, was exactly like sex, you thought of nothing else if you didn’t have it and thought of other things if you did.”- James Arthur Baldwin

Because the love of money is not so acceptable an alternate persona has to be made up like I am helping the hungry or I am business savvy, or- you get my drift. Business is the art of extracting money from another man’s pocket without resorting to violence. ~Max Amsterdam

Next is when your cover is blown and people find out about your lustful endeavors. You lie on the other person. no matter how ludicrous the LIE do it with eyes straight forward and full steam ahead and lie, lie lie. We live by the Golden Rule. Those who have the gold make the rules. ~Buzzie Bavasi
Oscar Wilde knew how to get lusty: When I was young I thought that money was the most important thing in life; now that I am old I know that it is.

Benjamin Franklin understood the nature of the lusty: He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.

The Political arena has turned to a show down about money (just like we didn't know that all politics are about money). Money is being hidden in Swiss bank accounts, class warfare is being screamed, and accusations are flying:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid accuses Romney for not paying taxes ... Reid accused Mitt Romney for failing to pay his taxes for 10 years, ... 

Mr. Romney has fired back at Mr. Reid: "You show me your proof because it is you who needs to show the truth of what YOU are saying."

Everyone wants to know what Mitt Romney is hiding. He is at the point of being caught with his lover-money. We know why he was attracted to this mistress and we are witnessing the alternate persona crashing so, the lying on the one cheated on stage is in full force. Now we await to see if the inevitable GETTING CAUGHT stage will follow.

The religious community does not escape its lust for the green goddess. The alternate persona????
Referred to as the prosperity gospel or the health and wealth gospel) is a Christian religious doctrine which claims the Bible teaches that financial blessing is the will of God for Christians. The doctrine teaches that faith, positive speech, and donations to Christian ministries will always increase one's material wealth.

Does this type of lustful affair ever become exposed???????Let's check in with TBN (Trinity Broadcast Network)

Their granddaughter, Brittany Koper, recently filed court papers that include allegations of $50 million in financial shenanigans at the world's largest Christian broadcasting network. Her suit was followed by another from a Koper in-law, who detailed opulent spending at the network on items such as private jets, mansions in California, Tennessee and Florida and a $100,000 mobile home for Jan Crouch's dogs.

The suit came after Koper's husband was accused by a debt collection company of embezzling more than $1 million from TBN. The debt collection company that filed the lawsuit later added the Crouches' granddaughter and two of her in-laws as defendants.

The lawsuit attention comes at a bad time for TBN, which has seen viewer donations drop steeply. TBN raked in $92 million in donations in 2010 and cleared $175 million in tax-free revenue, but its net income plummeted from nearly $60 million in 2006 to a loss of $18 million in 2010, the most recent year available. Donations fell by nearly $30 million in the same period — a hit the network blames on the bad economy.   In 1998, the elder Crouch secretly paid an accuser $425,000 to keep quiet about allegations of a homosexual encounter. Crouch Sr. has consistently denied the allegations, which were first reported by the Los Angeles Times, and has said he settled only to avoid a costly and embarrassing trial.

Well, I guess the author of the article on how to cheat was right; in the end the cheater always get caught. So, for those wondering about Mitt Romney and his unwillingness to show his tax returns I wonder: will this cheater win?
To make it clear why I decided to write this blog, I will let the next quote shine the light on my motives: 

A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom. (Martin Luther King Jr.)

War is also in the category of alternative persona and we all know there is a mistress involved.
