Christian Newswire: Reasons one might use an escort service are varied. NO condemnation of Vitter.

Why is a Senator Really in a Famous Madam's Address Book?

Contact: The Garis Agency of California, National / Celebrity Publicists, 760-471-4807, [email protected], www.nationalpublicist.com

MEDIA ADVISORY, July 10 /Christian Newswire/ -- Why would a seemingly happily married man use a secret (or so he thought!) service for a little afternoon delight? Sex is one of the most powerful forces in our society. We all know of at least one man for whom sex was the catalyst of their downfall. From salesmen to senators, from mechanics to mayors and from plumbers to presidents, men from all walks of life have used escort agencies. It can be because of a loss of intimacy in their relationship, the chance to escape reality and be somebody else for a short amount of time, or the simply irresistible draw of a no-strings attached roll in the hay. The reasons one might use an escort service are as varied as the men who use them.

INTERVIEW: "The Cop and The Madam" -- yep, a real life detective married to one of the nation's most notorious Madams! Think that makes for some interesting stories? These two are hilarious together. Their real names are CHAD and ROBYN LINK. They have been grabbing headlines since their unlikely relationship went public. They have the real answers from an insider's perspective! They know when news breaks about public figures using escort agencies, it leaves some men squirming!

1. Don't Think Anyone Was Questioning The Reasons
It is more the morality of it. Or better yet, the reasons the Right thinks anybody's sex life should be legislated unless it is one of their own.

2. I'm surprised the Christian Newswire is so flip about it.
Well, no I'm not.

But it IS an illegal activity, and one would think immoral to them. Why no calls for Vitter to step down? Just an explanation that there are many "reasons" to use a prostitute?

5. what i have a PROBLEM with is the obssesive need
Edited on Wed Jul-11-07 04:49 AM by xchrom
that social conservatives have to control the genitals of the people.

if some one wants to have it off with a prostitute -- i am SO ok with that.

but when a man like vitter -- who has made it abundently clear he is my fucking enemy -- get caught doint it -- it is ok to point the very obvious disconnect that leads back to -- and you wanted to control MY genitals?

Abstinence and fidelity must only apply to Certain People.

Just not those who help these phoneys wield power and influence over the lives of others.

9. Which president used an escort agency?
I can think of plenty who had affairs, or were rumored to have had affairs, but "escorts"?

Sounds like bullshit to me.

11. That sounds like an ad for prostitution
Here's a common reason which those uptight, family-oriented Christians might like to consider: the desire for activities which are so degrading, unpleasant or dangerous that there's no way the guy could get a woman to provide them without paying. Will they still be cooing about "afternoon delight" if more details emerge, and they're really sordid?

"Congressman Denies Affair With Prostitute, Says Charges Are Politically Motivated

by Christopher Tidmore
PoliticsLA.com columnist
posted by March 26, 2004

For the first time, Congressman David Vitter has spoken out publically about allegations that he carried on an eleven month affair with a known prostitute named Wendy Cortez.

On WSMB radio last Saturday, a caller who identified himself as Elwood asked Vitter about charges, made by a member of the Louisiana Republican State Central Committee in the Weekly that the then-State Representative, had had an affair with a known prosition in the French Quarter. Elwood continued, "Would you be willing to sign an affidavit that you have ever known, met or had relations with one Wendy Cortez."

Vitter responded, "I think you know that that alligation is abosultely and completely untrue...I have said that on numerous occassions...I'll say that in any forum...Unfortuanately, that's just crass Louisiana politics, now that I am running for the Senate. I have made that clear that it is alll completely untrue...And, it's obviously politically motivated."
