I, David Vitter

There's a scene in I, Claudius where Augustus lines up the staff at his palace and gradually discovers that every man there has had sex with his daughter Julia. That's kind of what's happening to Sen. David Vitter, Republican of Louisiana. Not only was he on the DC madam's phone list, Vitter apparently hung out in the brothels of New Orleans. It may be the case that reporters will have a hard time finding prostitutes who haven't had sex with Vitters.
U.S. Senator David Vitter visited a Canal Street brothel several times beginning in the mid-1990s, paying $300 per hour for services at the bordello after he met the madam at a fishing rodeo that included prostitutes and other politicians, according to Jeanette Maier, the "Canal Street Madam" whose operation was shut down by federal investigators in 2001.

But thank God! Vitters did oppose gay marriage.
