“I have always given it away for free.”
July 17th, 2007 at 8:58 pm“I know it’s illegal, what more is there to know?”
July 17th, 2007 at 9:00 pmIt seems any fluff-brain can get into politics.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:08 pmAw, she tried to be clever, but only managed to look dumb.
Shut up.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:09 pmDid she giggle after she said that?
July 17th, 2007 at 9:09 pmIt seems the democrats are the new “moral majority” after all the republican scandals..vitter, foley, haggard, abramoff, delay etc.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:11 pmWell, then, your ass better be callin’ Ken Starr.

As long as we define “moral” very loosely. :D
July 17th, 2007 at 9:18 pmSimple rule of thumb; democrats get it and don’t have to pay. Republicans don’t, so do have to pay, and baring that just look for another man/boy.

American Women are unmarriageable because they’re all brainwashed by Feminism … prostitution/escorts are the only option for American Men.

July 17th, 2007 at 9:19 pmHi everyone.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:20 pmI was once a Conservative Republican. However after only getting 3 raises in the last 6 years I’m now a Democrat.
When I 1st strted in my job in 96, I had 2 raises a year and a yearly $20,000 bonus.
After Bush it stopped.
At 1st I thought it was just the recession. Then as I saw the market recover and the economy grow nothing change.
I finally got in 2004, 2005 and 2006. However there’s a freeze this year even though my company’s stock is at an all time high and my bosses recived big bonuses! I am noe a Democrat because I know they will force my company to give me a raise and bonus!

Oops… a Repub! Quick, protect the livestock and little boys!
July 17th, 2007 at 9:22 pmWell we know sex sells, so why in this hypocritical country can’t those who want to buy it, get it legally? I mean poor Mr P is going to have to get some from someone other than his mom, and preacher some day.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:22 pmWe’ve lost so many jobs that pay well here (thanks to the GOP), that it would probably be a boost to the economy, keeping that money at home and not going to China for once.
What does ‘brainwashed by feminism’ actually mean?
July 17th, 2007 at 9:23 pmCollins for those of you who are to hung up on the R next to her name is a liberal.
and what she said is a round about way of saying “yes”.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:24 pm“brainwashed by feminism”=they won’t let me touch them.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:25 pmBTW I am joking

Then Monica crawls in and lowers the pay scale. You need a union!
July 17th, 2007 at 9:28 pm#11 koolmoedee: That has to be one of the dumbest things I have ever read. Are you a natural born moron or did you purposely dumb yourself down just to be a good republican?
July 17th, 2007 at 9:29 pmWhy did businesses give more raises than bonuses when Clinton was President?
July 17th, 2007 at 9:31 pmCorporate profits are at an all time high!
If Hillary wins will she make The companies pay higher and give bonuses?
Sex Sells,
July 17th, 2007 at 9:33 pmIs Bush not forcing companies to pay better?
Is he ordering companies to ship jobs overseas?
I want Hillary she won’t allow that!
collins has to be an expert, since she’s a whore for bush.
July 17th, 2007 at 9:38 pmNeither was Vitter, until last week…. **snicker… snicker**

Nothing… it’s just another meaningless sound bite for guys like Orally to use endlessly.

Hey… you can’t say that about Monica Goodling! She’s a Good, Christian girl, ya know! I’d ask her to speak for herself, but she’s taken the 5th!
July 17th, 2007 at 9:41 pmshouldn’t that be “prostitutional law” ?
July 17th, 2007 at 10:28 pmI still can’t believe Vitter would get off on having women put diapers on him and he’d crap in them…so disgusting. How Republicans can celebrate this guy as “traditional family values” is beyond me.
Old joke:
Q: Hey Senator, boxers or briefs?
A: Depends
July 17th, 2007 at 10:39 pmHas CD been kicked out of every other progressive blog now? He has to stink up TP?
July 17th, 2007 at 11:30 pmkoolmodee, so all women are now feminists? That is a pretty broad brush. I am sure you can find a Stepford wife like W did!!
July 17th, 2007 at 11:31 pmSusie has a problem with constitutional law, as well. Despite what CDtroll says when push comes to shove Collins votes with Bush.
July 17th, 2007 at 11:32 pm… prostitution/escorts are the only option for American Men.

Too bad no one told your father that. Or are you saying that you are his spawn with a prostitute?
July 18th, 2007 at 3:53 amAs someone already noted, Collins is a “liberal” Republican youi far left moonbats! Geesh!
I don’t think all American Women are feminists or support feminists so its not necessary to hire a hooker to pay for it.
Feminists are a very small % of women and they tend to like carpet anyway.

Are you saying that the majority of America’s women see themselves as being inferior to men?
Strange America you live in friend.
July 18th, 2007 at 9:32 amCollins is a Jackboot Lickin Bushie and has NO resemblance to being a liberal. Once again she has tried to take no position on a straight forward question. Vitter is an admitted felon, what else is there to know?
July 18th, 2007 at 9:52 amBruce Gorton:
Are you saying that the majority of America’s women see themselves as being inferior to men?
How do you get that out of what I said? I just don’t hink most women suscribe to the extreme creed of feminism. Most women like men, accept them and wan’t them in their lives. They also accept the realith that men and women are different and not equal in every area as set forth by nature not discrimination or sexism.
I also think many women like real men not the neutered PC panzies running society and culture in the present (both parties – but worse on the left.) Example – John “I let my wife fight my battles – Breck Girl – $400 haircut” Edwards.

Being spineless isn’t an attractive trait in anyone. A woman without the will to fight back when I argue is frankly a waste of my time. If I can’t be wrong in the relationship what’s the point? I may as well go see a prostitute.
PC, as you righties mean it (As opposed to the way it was originally intended – simply being about having good manners) isn’t appealing in anyone. Nor is being the person who sits back and takes being the butt of everyone else’s jokes. This is universal to male and female members of the species.
As to Edwards? The guy has more guts then you simply due to the fact that you are afraid of your own cowardice. You seem to feel that it is more important to be macho then to be masculine, whereby what is defined as masculinity is fighting, rather then actually doing anything constructive.

I think you are equating “sex” with what hangs between your legs or not. If you have ever taken a full hormone balance test, you will see that men and women have different levels of hormones, and that “normal” varies from individual to individual.
For instance, too much testosterone in men over 50 can cause excess levels of dihydrotestosterone, which can crank PSA levels, a precursor to Prostate problems. Likewise excess Estrogen levels in women can lead to Cervical and breast cancer. You can do a search, and see for yourself.
Perhaps you are equating the concept of aggressive or passive with “man or woman”. It is so much more complex than that.
July 18th, 2007 at 11:31 amShe should ask Pelosi. She has spent more time on her knees for money than anyone.

July 18th, 2007 at 1:32 pm“. . . just an expert in prostitution.”
Funny how a thread about Vitters, prostitution, and Republican prosituties from Maine becomes a grade-school, finger-pointing blamefest in the hands of the unthinking.
Yer not in Kansas any more, Toto, so start using that glorified ganglia you call a brain.
July 18th, 2007 at 2:05 pm“… at least in “buying”… as far as selling myself for votes – like all politicos, I’m an expert.”
July 18th, 2007 at 4:57 pmWhy you right-wing dweebies continue to monitor this website is beyond me. The truth hurts, I guess and you all are a glutton for punishment. It’s a vacant generation.
