Whoremonger wants to give $100,000 from taxpayers to flat-earthers

Stories like this give me opportunities to write fun headlines like the one above. Thank you, David Vitter.

This is too, too delicious!

Is there anything sweeter than a sanctimonious, right-wing, homophobic, family-values, God-fearing Republican getting outed as a whoremonger?

Sen. David Vitter, Republican of Louisiana, fessed up last night about having committed "a very serious sin" for which he has "asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife." His contrition is prompted by the revelation that his phone number has shown up in the records of the notorious woman known as the "D.C. Madam."

The depths of Vitter's hypocrisy are charted here by Glenn Greenwald.
