'D.C. madam' names a purported customer [war strategist who coined the term "Shock & Awe"]
CNN ^ | April 12, 2007

Posted on 04/12/2007 5:02:55 PM PDT by jdm

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The alleged "D.C. madam" dropped a name in court documents filed Thursday, but the man named bristled at being accused of hiring the high-end escort service run by Deborah Jean Palfrey.

Government prosecutors say Pamela Martin and Associates was actually a prostitution ring that Palfrey operated in the Washington area for 13 years. Palfrey denies that her business provided sexual services to its customers.

In her motion to reconsider appointment of counsel, Palfrey named Harlan K. Ullman as "one of the regular customers" of the business.

Ullman is one of the leading theorists behind the "shock and awe" military strategy that was associated with the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

"The allegations do not dignify a response," Ullman told CNN. "I'm a private, not a public, citizen. Any further questions are referred to my attorneys."

I don’t think you get in trouble for being named in this kind of thing unless you’re a Republican.

That’s the best she can do?

Not much of a “D.C. Madame”

So is anyone surprised that the very first name to get “dropped” here (and immediately reported by CNN) is someone from the Bush camp? Go figure.

I think we all saw this coming: allegations come flying at Republicans first, Dems if there’s still enough interest

I wonder if this is the opening barrage of a RAT shock and awe campaign to slander and out elements of the conservative coalition over the next 18 months until the '08 election?

I thought my wife coined that term after we first had sexual relations.

Wonder if he is married. If so he is probably saying ‘’ awe shocks hunny’’ and then she follows up with shock and awe.

"The allegations do not dignify a response,"

I tried that one with an ex-girlfriend once.

Without much success I should add.....

I am sure the wife is making the bombing of Baghdad look like a small town fire works show.

A woman so low as to reveal this alleged information is not a credible source. She is scum.

Anytime you see a story in the MSM, ask yourself two questions: Who benefits from this story? And why is it coming out NOW?
