So was Vitter wearing a diaper for the hookers or what?

[Jersey Devil]

Nearly spit my coffee with this one from Atrios:

Okay, I've seen this floating around and even Carville brought it up on CNN:


CARVILLE: Look, to me, I forgive -- I mean, I completely forgive him, but he's -- it's the people of Louisiana he's got to go to. And people in Louisiana are going to say, that's great. I'm just saying, but -- but we don't need to be embarrassed anymore. We don't need to have $90,000 in the freezer. We don't need somebody like getting a prostitute to wear -- getting him to wear a diaper or whatever the story is.

1. until Vitter clarifies and gives us details--we need details then i will just figure thats true.

i mean remember all the details in the newspaper of Clinton's GJ testimony, how detailed it was, well i think in the interest of Fairness and balance Vitter should supply us with the same kind of information.

2. The word is, he was into wearing diapers in the hooker's company in NOLA. nt

[Warren DeMontague]

Pfffffffffffffft.

:rofl:

Maybe he just always dreamed of being an astronaut?

[whistle]

3. Do you really want to know what James Carville is thinking here?

....I could care less. The important thing that must happen is Senator Vitter must resign and allow the Governor to appoint a Democrat as Senator to take Vitter's place.

[Elidor]

4. Carville seems to be the only source for that so far

And I make it a policy to doubt every fucking thing he says.

5. Wonkette has it too

Then ya got this:

We're talking about, among other things, Diaper Fetishism. That's right folks, according to a trusted inside source, Vitter was well known among other Canal Street Brothel patrons to like diapers as well as other bizarre "fetishes".

Canal Steet Madam says Vitter was a client

"We're talking about, among other things, Diaper Fetishism. That's right folks, according to a trusted inside source, Vitter was well known among other Canal Street Brothel patrons to like diapers as well as other bizarre "fetishes". I don't have much more info than that from my source, except that some of the other patrons at the brothel included a well known business-minded New Orleans Republican and a well known Democratic ex-governor. There are many other well known patrons who never held public office, too. You've probably heard various names floated about."


http://righthandthief.blogspot.com/2007/07/canal-steet-madam-says-vitter-was.html

and an explanation regarding the source of the "rumor"

I only have one source about this salacious "diaper detail", which is beside the point of the matter. However, for the record, this source knows multiple former patrons of the Canal Street Madam who happen to be lawyers, and they told my source about the diaper fetish. This source has provided me with extremely reliable information in the past, and that's why I chose to include it in the post. The Canal Street Madam herself defended Vitter today and said he was not into anything "unusual", which flatly contradicts what my source told me about Vitter's preferences. However, it confirms what my source told me about Vitter being a client of the Canal Street Madam-- which is a far more important point than some diaper imagery, and shows a pattern of behavior rather than one single lapse.

Also: yesterday afternoon, prior to my post, New Orleans blogger Noladishu wrote: "This story is getting legs. Oh, if they only get into the sick, sick fetish stuff he's rumored to have gotten into!"

Treat the diaper thing as a distracting rumor from a one-sourced blogger whom the Canal Street Madam flatly contradicted. It should be much more surprising to everyone that Senator Vitter has not yet felt compelled to deny her incendiary charges, nor the old reports from journalist (and current GOP State Rep Candidate) Chris Tidmore.

10. Trying to figure out the psychology of a diaper fetish...

you just know the implications aren't good :scared: mixed in with his whacked up religiosity. Eek!

[Warren DeMontague]

21. Maybe he's a Theocratic Fascist who wants to infantalize everyone else - making their most personal

intimate decisions for them, because he secretly wishes to be treated that way himself.

Unfortunately, no one can put him in jail for getting an abortion or taking the pill, the way his party advocates.

[orleans]

11. my god--even if this story isn't true--he should be so fucking ashamed

of himself & what he did & the road he took himself down by leaving himself open to his---he should hang his head in shame and crawl back under a fucking rock!

[long_green]

19. I've heard some rumors about Vitter myself...

they don't come from what I would call highly credible sources but if the diaper thing is true anything is possible. If this gains traction he will have to resign.

[SharonAnn]

7. But remember, Carville is from Louisiana and I'll bet he's still got good connections there.

So, I'd think there's something to what he says about this.

[trashcanistanista]

12. Me too, but I'm still secretly happy he said it on national tv.

Vitter's done. :rofl:

[Warren DeMontague]

20. No Shit. If you'll excuse the pun.nt

[peekaloo]

9. If the diaper don't fit, then change that shit!

apologies to Johnny C.

[Catherine Vincent]

13. LOL!

:rofl:

[trashcanistanista]

14. LOL

Good one! :rofl:

15. Google diaper fetish

16. Now tell me this guy wasn't blackmailed to sell out NOLA when Katrina happened.
