more hi jinx from the party of family values....

WASHINGTON - Randall Tobias, head of the Bush administration's foreign aid programs, abruptly resigned Friday after his name surfaced in an investigation into a high-priced call-girl ring, said two people in a position to know the circumstances of his departure.

It was Tobias' own decision to resign, according to one of the people, who said the issue came up only in the past day or so. The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the investigation is still under way.

Tobias submitted his resignation a day after he was interviewed by ABC News for an upcoming program about an alleged prostitution service run by the so-called D.C. Madam.

ABC reported on its Web site late Friday that Tobias confirmed that he had called the Pamela Martin and Associates escort service to have women come to his condo and give him massages. More recently, Tobias told the network, he has been using a service with Central American women.

1. So the mistress defense is she's going to subpoenea

members of the Bush administration. They will exonerate her because they only buy massages, there is no sex involved?

Hope it works for her. She should name more names.

9. The beautiful irony is this guy was pushing an abstinence based policy for AIDS prevention,

presumably because using condoms was not compatible with wingnut morality.

I'm sure he never used a condominium in his dealings with Pamela Martin & Co. :eyes:
