Based on the description it's either 1. Rachael 2. Jess 3. Vanessa 4. Gemma
My guess is Rachael
"Negotiated over price"? This is definitely bad for the jews.
They negotiated over price. Client 9 agreed to pay $3600, but said he would consider an additional $1500. Client 9 gave a room number -- 871 -- and asked for a description. The agent said she was American, petite, pretty, brunette, 5'5", 105 pounds. Client 9 said she should come straight to the room.
Spitzer or swallow?
Source on that article?
What a gentleman. He paid for everything -- train tickets, cab fare from the hotel and back, mini bar, room service, travel time, and hotel.
On February 12, 2008, at approximately 2:37 p.m., TEMEKA RACHELLE LEWIS, a/k/a 'Rachelle," the defendant, using the 6587 Number, called a prostitute who the Emperors Club marketed using the name "Kristen." During the call, LEWIS left a message for "Kristen" that the "deposit" had not arrived today, but that they should be able to do the trip if the deposit arrived tomorrow. (Call 9324R) . At approximately 4:03 p.m. , LEWIS received a call from "Kristen." During the call, "Kristen" said that she had heard the message, and that was fine. LEWIS and "Kristen" then discussed the time that "Kristen" would take the train from New York to Washington, D.C. LEWIS told "Kristen" that there was a 5:39 p.m. train that arrived at 9:00 p.m., and that "Kristen" would be taking the train out of Penn Station. LEWIS confirmed that Client-9 would be paying for everything - train tickets, cab fare from the hotel and back, mini bar or room service, travel time, and hotel. LEWIS said that they would probably not know until 3 p.m. if the deposit arrived because Client-9 would not do traditional wire transferring. (Call 9362) .
At approximately 8:12 p.m., TEMEKA RACHELLE LEWIS, a/k/a "Rachelle," the defendant, using the 6587 Number, received a call from Client-9. During the call, LEWIS told Client-9 that the "package" did not arrive today. LEWIS asked Client-9 if there was a return address on the envelope, and Client-9 said no. LEWIS asked: "You had QAT . . .," and Client-9 said: "Yup, same as in the past, no question about it." LEWIS asked Client-9 what time he was interested in having the appointment tomorrow. Client-9 told her 9:00 p.m. or 10:OO p.m. LEWIS told Client-9 to call her back in five minutes. (Call 9460R) .
At approximately 8:14 p.m., TEMEKA RACHELLE LEWIS, a/k/a "Rachelle," the defendant, using the 6587 Number, called MARK BRENER, a/k/a "Michael," the defendant, at the 0937 Number. During the call, LEWIS told BRENER that Client-9 had just called about an appointment for tomorrow, and that he had around $400 or $500 credit. SUWAL [defendant Cecil Suwal of New Jersey] said that she did not feel comfortable saying that Client-9 had a $400 credit when she did not know that for a fact. SUWAL and BRENER talked in the background about whether Client-9 could proceed with the appointment without his deposit having arrived. (Call 9462R). At approximately 8:23 p.m., LEWIS called Client-9, and told him that the 'office" said he could not proceed with the appointment with his available credit. After discussing ways to resolve the situation, LEWIS and Client-9 I agreed to speak the following day. (Call 9467R) .
No Capitolist in Kentucky:
Kentucky Representative Tim Couch filed a bill this week to make anonymous posting online illegal.
The bill would require anyone who contributes to a website to register their real name, address and e-mail address with that site.
Their full name would be used anytime a comment is posted.
If the bill becomes law, the website operator would have to pay if someone was allowed to post anonymously on their site. The fine would be five-hundred dollars for a first offense and one-thousand dollars for each offense after that.
Representative Couch says he filed the bill in hopes of cutting down on online bullying. He says that has especially been a problem in his Eastern Kentucky district.
If Spitzer does lose his superdelegate vote, whichever New York official that does gain his vote will likely be a Hillary supporter as well, so it doesn't really matter.
Also, will Paterson be the first blind governor?
If Spitzer resigns, does he lose his superdelegate vote?
Valid question... If Obama won by 1, that'd be hilarious.
If Spitzer resigns, does he lose his superdelegate vote?
Spitzowned.
$5,500 Sweet jesus I'm in the wrong business.
It makes perfect sense: Connecticut Governor John Rowland resigns due to a financial indiscretion. New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevy resigns due to a sexual indiscretion. New York Governor Eliot Spitzer meets both them halfway with a prostitution ring.
Damn - $5,500 an hour! That's an expensive habit.
Hillary sure can pick'em can't she? What wonderful judgment that woman has...
Yes She Can!
Will he resign?
I hope he announces today, "I am a gay American." That would totally make my day.
Agreed
And Eliot Spitzer saves a slow news day!
Gov. Eliot Spitzer has informed his most senior administration officials that he had been involved in a prostitution ring, an administration official said this morning.
Mr. Spitzer, who was huddled with his top aides early this afternoon, had hours earlier abruptly canceled his scheduled public events for the day. He is set to make an announcement about 2:15 this afternoon at his Manhattan office.
I don't think Prince Harry and Prince William are full brothers.
Obama is not pragmatic. Give me a break.
When you look at the electoral map if the Clintons run again, you also see a reversion to the old patterns of the 1990s – the patterns that cynical political strategists such as Karl Rove and Dick Morris have been exploiting for two decades. The country – scrambled by the post-baby-boomer pragmatism of Obama – snaps back into classic red-blue mode, with the blue areas denoting Democratic-leaning states around the edge and true red Republican states in the heartlands.
The Clintons are comfortable with this polarisation. They need it. Even when running against a fellow Democrat, they instinctively reach for it. Last week, in response to the Obama camp’s request that they release their tax returns, Clinton’s spokesman called Obama a new Ken Starr. For the Clintons, all Democrats who oppose them are . . . Republicans. And all Republicans are evil.
And evil means that anything the Clintons do in self-defence is excusable – even playing the race card, and the Muslim card, and the gender card, and every sleazy gambit that the politics of fear can come up with. This is how they have arrested the Obama juggernaut. It’s the only game they know how to play.

The Grand Canyon, carved out over the eons by rushing river water, began to form 17 million years ago, making it nearly three times older than previously thought, scientists said on Thursday.
House and Senate bean soup are required menu items each day, regardless of vendor
This morning the Rayburn Cafeteria had two registers openned and lines all the way back to the salad bar (I'm sorry, "antipasti"). In the end, though, it's a small price to pay for sustainable seafood!
The Senate Bean Soup is Ann Coulter's daily breakfast vomit.
They say a man should always dress for the job he wants
so why am I dressed up like a pirate in this restaurant.
It’s all because some hacker stole my identity.
Now I’m in here every evening serving chowder and iced tea.
Should have gone to freecreditreport.com (yeehaa!)
I could have seen this coming at me like an atom bomb.
They monitor your credit and send you email alerts.
So you don’t end up selling fish to tourists in t-shirts.
Get a set of stainless steel flatware to keep in your desk.
I have. I also got to eat part of my fork!
If you think the House is Ruth's Chris, you've clearly never eaten there.
If the Senate looses Cups, that is the last decent coffee on the Hill.
PS- Thanks for sending over your stupid House food. We are not looking forward to it.
Love, the Senate
Are you serious? Clearly you've never eaten in the House cafeteria. They're Ruth's Chris and we're a public school lunch room.
So what does this mean for the legendary Senate Bean Soup? Surely that gets grandfathered in, right?
Right.... because the food in Dirksen is just peachy. Anything is better than what we have now.
PS- Thanks for sending over your stupid House food. We are not looking forward to it.
Love, the Senate
Wow - that crossed the line
House=Stupid
