HEADLINE: Escort service placed calls to Vitter DURING HOUSE VOTES
Escort service placed calls to Vitter during House votes

Associated Press - July 12, 2007 10:03 PM ET

WASHINGTON (AP) - Phone records show a suspected DC madam was calling David Vitter back when he was a House member -- and during hours that Congress was in session.

The Louisiana Republican, who is now a senator, acknowledged earlier this week his number was on Deborah Jeane Palfrey's call list. The father of 4 has dropped out of sight since the revelation, missing out on Senate votes.

Palfrey says she would return calls to her company, to verify the caller's identity.

She called Vitter's office five times. 4 of those times, the House was in session and Vitter showed up for roll call votes.

13. He was pampering himself between votes.
He was a constant shitter, even when he was acting as a critter.

8. I can't remember if it was Pat Buchanan on Abrams show...
...or that jackass Ed Rogers on Hardball that said, "but Vitters wasn't even a Senator yet when all of that happened." Uh huh. F&^%ing hypocrits. And they bring up Clinton every time, as if there's some analogy. There isn't.

9. Kinda gives a whole new meaning to political whore, doesn't it?
Edited on Fri Jul-13-07 04:19 AM by EST
As someone mentioned on msnbc, yesterday, Vitter & Co. pay two hundred an hour for the ladies and Chevron pays them a thousand an hour for pretty much the same sort of service.

16. What? Are roll call votes aphrodisiacs or something?
Vitters and Foley, both gettin' their jollies with roll call votes!
Can you imagine their pillow talk?

"Oooo...baby, I'm gonna vote so many times tomorrow...."


No wonder these guys want to be politicians....they're addicted to love. (well, sex anyway)

17. If he resigns, it's a Democratic pickup for the time being.
Wouldn't that be nice?
