Senator's Number on Escort Service List

WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. David Vitter, R-La., apologized Monday night for "a very serious sin in my past" after his telephone number appeared among those associated with an escort service operated by the so-called "D.C. Madam."

Vitter's spokesman, Joel Digrado, confirmed the statement in an e-mail sent to The Associated Press.

"This was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible," Vitter said in the statement. "Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife in confession and marriage counseling. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there - with God and them. But I certainly offer my deep and sincere apologies to all I have disappointed and let down in any way."

What a retard. All that power just corrupts...Dem or Rep.

If I see this so called Senator preaching family values I’m going to throw up... way to go, thanks for giving the Rep party another black eye and the media lots more fodder to bash Reps with.

Probably, but we will never know that! They have been in DC for so long I doubt they need a ‘Madame’. They probably have their own private w*orehouse.

It attracts the corrupt. I'm pretty sure my guy, Scott Garrett, is not on the list, though.

Man, this rumor has been floating around for a long while, but I hoped there wasn’t anything to it. Sadly, it looks like it’s not the case.

Dear Senator Vitter,

As one of the people who contributed to your campaign,
I really just want say that I don't care about any of this.
I think you're doing a fine job.
Nice that you've apologized, but don't let them make you their next target.

I don’t preach family values so I can do whatever I want.

The Dems are too smart to call from their own phones. And too dishonest to admit that they did it.

What kind of campaign did this guy run? Was he emphasizing the family values angle?

heck, I don’t mind when politicians come out and talk about their conservative family values I just don’t want them being hypocrites... like Newt with the impeachment of Clinton.
