Back in October, the feds busted a long-time prostitution service in the Washington, D.C. area. The madam, Jean Palfrey, soon caught attention by telling a reporter.....she's now apparently mulling selling her phone records from the last thirteen years to raise funds for her defense.

Palfrey, whose assets were seized by the IRS back in October, has launched a website, deborahjeanepalfrey.com, to solicit contributions. But if that doesn't bring in enough, "consideration is being given to selling the entire 46 pounds of detailed and itemized phone records for the 13 year period, to raise the requisite defense funds," according to the website.

Guess he'd better cough up!

Update: Her lawyer responds: "The records identify the telephone number of the customer. Since 2000, the customers and the independent contractor escorts of the service almost exclusively used their personal cellphones, their identifying information is readily and publicly available. Jeane will cooperate with whoever acquires the information to supplement it with other information at her disposal."

Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) apologized last night after his telephone number appeared in the phone records of the woman dubbed the "D.C. Madam," making him the first member of Congress to become ensnared in the high-profile case.

The statement containing Vitter's apology said his telephone number was included on phone records of Pamela Martin and Associates dating from before he ran for the Senate in 2004.

What a shock, that it turns out to be a church-goin' Repugnican family values kinda guy!

BTW, I think it's funny that it was Hustler Magazine that caused Vitter to come forward and apologize. They beat out ABC and the other "real" news stations on this story.

It's this aspect that could be the only thing that could ever attract me to religion.

In a related thread, Jeff House asked for opinions on Republican kinkyness. It seems this Madam had a lot of Republican customers that liked to be restrained, whiped/spanked and humiliated by being made to wear women's clothes.

It comes as no surprise-- and no judgement on the sexual details-- to me.

Typically, people who feel they are in control in their "real life" tend towards the opposite end in their fantasy life. Cops, Judges, scions of business would probably gravitate to the submissive end, while people who don't feel they are in control of thier "real life" would gravitate to the dominant end of the scale in the BDSM scene.

But not always, though. There are many different types of relationships. I'm speaking generally.

The fact that politics attracts control freaks and those who feel they are marginalized by the political system might also mean that there are more kinksters per square foot in politics than one might find in other fields of endeavor or interest.

Having attended more than one or two BDSM parties, I can say that whatever one's perception of couples that enter, it's, um, bound, to be turned on it's head later in the evening.
