DC Madam Scores A Direct Hit !!!
Lawmaker’s number on escort service list
Sen. Vitter apologizes for ‘a very serious sin in my past’

<snip>

WASHINGTON - Sen. David Vitter, R-La., apologized Monday night for “a very serious sin in my past” after his telephone number appeared among those associated with an escort service operated by the so-called “D.C. Madam.”

Vitter’s spokesman, Joel Digrado, confirmed the statement in an e-mail sent to The Associated Press.

“This was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible,” Vitter said in the statement. “Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife in confession and marriage counseling. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there — with God and them. But I certainly offer my deep and sincere apologies to all I have disappointed and let down in any way.”

The statement containing Vitter’s apology said his telephone number was on old phone records of Pamela Martin and Associates before he ran for the Senate.

Deborah Jeane Palfrey was accused in federal court of racketeering by running a prostitution ring that netted more than $2 million over 13 years, beginning in 1993. She contends, however, that her escort service, Pamela Martin and Associates, was a legitimate business.

Vitter, 46, a Republican in his first Senate term, was elected to the Senate in 2004. He represented Louisiana’s 1st Congressional District in the House from 1999 to 2004.

Vitter and his wife, Wendy, live in Metairie, La., with their four children.

26. he may have asked for forgiveness, but what evidence does he have that it was granted? . . .
did God speak to him, like he speaks to George Bush? . . . or maybe God sent a message through George (apparently his "messenger on Earth") that everything was cool . . .

or maybe it's just wishful thinking . . .

Edited on Mon Jul-09-07 10:24 PM by PSPS
It must be the same god that talks to bush and tells him to kill people.

Get forgiveness from the Lord, surely...whenever one is able to. But you sure as hell better try to get forgiveness from your wife, Senator! :scared:

11. Once the women who serviced him are identified, I see a 'hush payment' in his future...
You know their 'story' would bring millions from the tabloids.

18. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there — with God and them.
Excuse me Vitter... You lost your family's respect when you cheated on your wife. You lost the respect of your god when you cheated on him. Maybe if his god is actually a female she will help his wife achieve retribution.

If one is willing to cheat on their wife, their children, their god. Who else has he cheated or will cheat?

22. Ah....the two-pronged Republican defense
I did it but it was a long time ago and I am a good boy, now (this is probably his statute of limitations defense).

Coupled with....

God, god GOD......God.....and did I forget to mention God?...and forgiveness!! (big, sweaty-lipped smile)



Honestly, I wonder what his fetish was. These powerful types typically have them. This one looks like the kind that likes to wear diapers.

23. I wrote him a letter, choosing "reporting corruption" from his drop
down list:

I would like to report a corrupt person who says he's godly, faith-filled and devout to all the things a godly person must be. However, when no one is looking, he schtumps hookers.

His name is David Vitter. Please warn Mr. Vitter that his harpie wife, the lovely Wendy, upon judging (-not less ye also be judged), said she would be "a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary" if her husband, Davie "For a Good time, schtump a hooker" Vitter ever cheated on her like that 'satanic Bill Clinton'. She mentioned cutting off his pee pee and getting his last nickel too. Tell him to contact Tom DeLay and ask him how he hid his bribes or the crazy lady is going to fleece him. Knowing Davie, he will probably like it.

Tell the little hipocrite to enjoy himself. Maybe men in his church have forgiven him, but God doesn't forget.

Smooches,

RV, a fan from Alaska

27. One of my theo-fascist associates at the CIA
was always lecturing us on the evils of of the flesh.

He came back from a TDY to Singapore and gave his devout Catholic wife a dose of the Clap.

Poor woman. She was a nice person too.
