There's No Fool Like An Old Fool - Almost

From the Huffington Post, that bastion of responsible journalism, comes this story of an old fool and a couple of even more foolish women.

An 81-year-old Florida man, who police say posed as a door-to-door physician and duped at least two women into having their breasts examined, has struck a plea deal with prosecutors.

The women must have thought this was one of the benefits of obamacare - free house calls.

Phillip Winikoff was charged with three counts of sexual battery, two counts of practicing medicine without a license, two counts of simple battery and one count of using the title of doctor without a license.

Winikoff - just the name makes one want to snicker. Sounds awfully close to Wankoff.

... Winikoff, carrying a black "doctor's" bag, went to an apartment complex in Lauderdale Lakes. The phony doctor knocked on a unit belonging to a 36-year-old woman. He allegedly said he was visiting on behalf of a local hospital.

"He told the woman that he was in the neighborhood offering free breast exams," Broward County Sheriff's Office spokesman Hugh Graf said.

The unwitting patient ("patient?" how about "victim?" or "idiot?") let Winikoff into her apartment and he began the exam. After allegedly touching the victim's chest, Winikoff moved an ungloved hand to the woman's genitals and further molested her.

Suspecting that Winikoff was not a real doctor, the victim contacted the sheriff's office. When deputies arrived, the white-haired, fake physician had already left. He did not go far, however. Instead of fleeing the area, Winikoff found another victim, a 33-year-old woman who lived in the same apartment complex as the first victim, police said.

I don't know who is dumber - the old guy, for hanging around the scene of the crime, or the women, for falling for a scam this transparent.

My vote is for the women, especially after seeing the fake doctor's mugshot.

If I were female, I wouldn't let this guy within touching distance to begin with, much less let him grope my funbags.

If the gals were foolish enough to fall for this nonsense, they probably voted for obama...
