And yesterday the media was camped at our church -- at our home and at our church every day."

Vitter appeared before a gallery of reporters with his wife, Wendy, at his side, and the couple described the senator's transgressions as a private matter in their marriage.

Wendy Vitter kept her eyes on the floor as her husband spoke, but she turned her gaze on him at a single moment -- as he thanked her for forgiving his indiscretions.


His wife tried to pre-empt additional news coverage by invoking the couple's four children, all younger than 13. She said the youngsters endured an "incredibly trying and very sad" week as reports continued to surface about prostitutes in Louisiana and Washington.

"Now I'm going to speak to you as a mother, and I hope you will understand," Wendy Vitter said. "It's been terribly hard to have the media parked on our front lawn and following us every day. And yesterday the media was camped at our church -- at our home and at our church every day.

OH NO Camped out at your church....

Well Mrs. Vitter. I have just one thing to say. FUCK YOU AND GET USED TO IT.

Let's see what you asshole cheating, diaper wearing, MORAL VALUES husband said about MY PRESIDENT.

Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) first got his start in Congress after replacing former Rep. Bob Livingston (R-LA), who “abruptly resigned after disclosures of numerous affairs” in 1998. At the time, Vitter argued that an extramarital affair was grounds for resignation:

“I think Livingston’s stepping down makes a very powerful argument that Clinton should resign as well and move beyond this mess,” he said.

When he resigns, then I will offer my condolences to you. Until then, FUCK YOU!

1. I agree with her, the media is only after the salacious and goes too far,
just like endless hours of britney, missing blond girls, etc.

7. Shallow media
You make a good point...The camping out at the church etc, is not for illuminating the public about what a seemingly endless supply of hypocrites populate the holier than thou, bible thumpin, Christian Taliban Republiklan party. Just more disposable sensationalism, with no deeper meaning examined. Sigh...

2. Vitter needs to resign...
If he does not, he is the biggest hypocrite to be exposed lately.
His wife did have that 'deer in the poacher's spot-light' look while
Vitter was spewing his BS.
It is not a family matter when he based his whole political career on
Family Values. The fact that he promoted himself as a moral family
man means he and his family are open to scrutiny. He drug his family
into the political arena way back when, not just after the diaper doody
incident.

4. Always using "the children"...I'm so sick of that..
"the youngsters endured an "incredibly trying and very sad" week"

Yeah, and the children in Iraq probably had a sad week, too. The one's that weren't dead, that is. So, what is her point?

What a friggin' hypocrite!

6. There is a term for that. It's called "Whoring Out your Children."
Edited on Tue Jul-17-07 08:46 AM by slampoet
and i see people use it everyday to park illegally, cut in line, ruin other people's meals, and much else. I had a woman with a baby cart block the door to a cafe yesterday for two full minutes with others standing there until i spoke up. She then entered the cafe while I tied up my dog out side. I went to the counter to order coffee and the counter server walked away from me to give a product list the the door blocker woman. It appears that the Woman didn't even have enough respect for the help to wait at the counter for 30 seconds. She instead made the server go looking for her. I eventually had the chef (who i know) get my coffee. He saw that i had the dog and gave me a carrot. I was told today that the woman actually saw this a demanded a free carrot for her child even though she didn't order anything.



It is just as shameful as the habit of white people shoving black people out of their way in public and not apologizing.

Both are in epidemic levels in new england.

5. He should have thought of his children before he made the first phone call
Or before he visited the first hooker.

He didn't think about his kids then, did he!

8. Good point
Mr. Vitter's four kids don't belong to the media, and Mr. Vitter doesn't seem to have had his precious offspring uppermost in mind when he was getting serviced by Ms. Pay for Play. Tell us, Mrs. Vitter, what was your husband paying another woman for that he couldn't get from you for free?
