Headzup: Rove's Resignation

This is exactly what I was thinkin'...

The Word - Victimcrite

Stephen Colbert takes a look at whether or not Senator David Vitter (R-LA) should be considered a hypocrite for frequently the services of the DC Madam.

Larry Flynt: "Payback's a Bitch"

Larry Flynt's investigation into the DC Madam's phone logs led to the discovery of the Senator Vitter (R-LA) connection. And now he claims to have 30 solid leads into other cases, including two more senators and 25 congressmen, as well as other top-ranking officials. No politician, from either side of the aisle, is safe.

In addition, CrooksandLiars reports today that a GOP pundit has also been outed in connection with the escort service.

You have got to love the fact that Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler Magazine, has got the GOP sweatin' like a whore in church...

I'm going to have to agree with the good folks over at Crooks & Liars on this one - something isn't right. Last week Brian Ross claimed he had scored numbers for people in the White House. This week, he says, oh whoops! there was nothing there after all...

So, was this just a ratings stunt for May sweeps, or did Brian get a phone call, himself? After all, he already outed Deputy Secretary of Defense Randall Tobias, and there were rumors Grover Norquist was on the list. Now, suddenly he has bupkus? I don't buy it.

The Case of the DC Madam

Surprise surprise... There's another sex scandal in the Bush White House.

This one involves a DC Madam and a list of thousands of clients, including the U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Randall Tobias. Tobias admitted to frequenting the escort service. According to ABC's Brian Ross, "he said it was like ordering pizza.”

Bush sure hires some quality-ass people, don't he? At least the Madam is a bit of a shit-kicker. She's ready to take this thing to trial and start naming names. WOOO-HOOOO!!!
