“He’d rather pay a prostitute than pay auto workers.”
– Morgan Johnson, an auto union rep in Louisiana said of his (dis)honorable Senator David “I love fucking hookers” Vitter. I don’t support the bailout, but this is a good diss and deserves praise. I don’t want my tax dollars paying for Vitter’s “expenses” either.
