Edited on Fri May-02-08 05:27 AM by malaise
name was found on the DC Madam's list.
That was a shocking error/lie. They had a recent report but when they ended it with that gross inaccuracy, I nearly dropped my coffee.
Their print version is accurate so the error/lie is unbelievable.

Mr Vitter, a Republican Senator from Louisiana who is married with four children, faced calls to resign when details of his dealings with the escort agency first emerged.

The senator apologised for what he described as a "very serious sin", but refused to comment further.

3. i think they are thinking of Spitzer
CNN was talking about Spitzer when they were talking about this madam even though Spitzer was not involved in her prostitution ring.

5. they probably don't read directly from the print reports
the reporter who said it may have had the events concerning Spitzer in mind.

it's no surprise considering the Spitzer thing got so much attention while Vitter's didn't.

9. Heebie Jeebus probably can tell by the smell, if...
Dumplin' Davy has done any serious bull-shitting, back-sliding, or leg humping lately and judge him according to the latest commandments handed directly down to the AWOL in Chief, from somewhere on high in Dick's and Daddy's hideouts.("undisclosed locations underneath Virginia")



(if it looks like the devil and quacks exactly like a devil, it probably is some gall-danged kind of a devil)
