Rhymes with "Bridget", and "midget"
Regarding the Vitter/Craig scandals, Times Picayune columnist
James Gill writes:Ordinary mortals will have trouble grasping the nuances of the Republican ethical code in the U.S. Senate.
Trolling public restrooms in search of gay sex is definitely beyond the pale. Thus the GOP leadership would not touch Larry Craig of Idaho with a 10-foot pole.
But it is evidently jake for a member of the world's greatest deliberative body to enjoy the services of the world's oldest profession.
...
Almost two months after Vitter's whoring came to light, it is clear he has been forgiven, at least on Capitol Hill. We can only guess why he is isn't a political goner too. The Senate moralists must deal in the subtlest of distinctions.
...
Morally, there may be no discernible difference between Craig and Vitter...
...
But only politics can explain why Craig and Vitter have met such different fates.
Yes, yes. We know, we
know. Tell us something new.
Vitter has denied allegations from Canal Street madam Jeannette Maier that he sinned at her joint... Maier continues to insist that she remembers Vitter appearing at her brothel, and says he used to call her "Gidget."
Gidget?! Here's a pic of the Canal Street Madam:

And here's the Sally Field version of "Gidget":

Whatever you say, Moondoggie. Whatever you say.

Moldy City has some rather harsh words about Gill's previous column.

the title is a pop culture reference with which I hope you'll be impressed (NSFW)

More Jeannete pix, please.
Maier as Gidget: You like me, you really really like me!
Maier as Maier: Pay in advance Congressman Huggies.
Vitter as John: Goo goo poo pee.
Vitter as Senator: Goo goo poo pee, my honorable friend.
Was the madam at RT2?
So....what is that red thingy Gidget holds in her right hand?
Marco: no, dammit.
Thank you for linking to my point. Vitter will be jettisoned once a Republican replacement is assured.
Ashley, you could have told the madam to "come as you are".
Marco, that costs extra.
What doesn't?
Hello, my name is Jeanette Maier aka The Canal Street Madam. Yes, I said we had some strange republicans who wore diapers but David Vitter was not one of them. I said in politics with a punch that David used his words wisely. He did not know me by Jeanette but by Gidget and he didn't see girls from louisiana, my girls where from out of state. Many girls said they were at different parties and polititions house and partied with David. I personally do not recall seeing him myself, you guys know them boat parties if you catch my drift. To Ashley you can learn more about me at my space.
Sorry ran out of room. Thank you Jeanette Maier. I now sell % soy candles and soon to open my business. Can I please start over? Or do you want me to run for Lt. Govenor? lol (Maybe city counsel) HMMMMMM!
Now do you believe me??????????????
