Larry Flynt, the founder and publisher of Hustler Magazine, has tried to uncover hypocrites who publicly support a sinless society while they enjoy the benefits of Sodom and Gomorrah. According to a recent article in The Politico, Flynt "is once again offering a million-dollar payoff to anyone who can provide documented evidence of illicit intimate relations with a congressman, senator or other prominent officeholder."
The Republican Party has teamed with the religious right and created the catchy label "the moral majority." If you joined this club, you better practice what you preach. Flynt is sick of the hypocrites who accuse others while doing the same thing themselves. The funny part is how all these guys receive forgiveness from their wives and God as soon as they are caught.
While the Republicans were trying to impeach Bill Clinton for his immoral conduct (and lies), Flynt went to town and discovered some of the impeachers had not been good boys themselves. According to the article, "Flynt managed to expose the sexual promiscuity of former House Judiciary Chairman Henry Hyde of Illinois, former impeachment prosecutor Bob Barr and -- his biggest catch of all -- the almost-Speaker Bob Livingston, another Louisianan."
Now, Flynt has added Republican Senator David Vitter to his list of sinning hypocrites. Of course, David has received forgiveness from his understanding wife and from God. Funny thing is, a few years ago, Wendy Vitter told an interviewer that "I'm a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary."
The Louisiana senator must now be relieved that wife Wendy is more like Hillary Clinton than she is like Lorena. Just a warning David, I think Lorena cut it off while John Wayne Bobbit was sleeping.

1. If you think for a moment that the Senator has been "forgiven" by his wife, think again. There are two faces to a Washington wife. One is the supportive, forgiving spouse who stands by their man especially when the media looks. The other is the angry, publicly humiliated woman who makes her man's live a living hell for years to come. Rest assured Senator Vitter has a better understanding of the horrors of hell than your average man since the news became public. If you want to play, sometimes you'll pay. I'm sure the price is much higher than the Senator ever imagined.

2. Just another flawed member of the failed Family Values Party who proved, once again, that we should never trust anyone pretending to represent virtue.

3. Isn't it interesting that a Republican was the first one "outed" by slimy Flint. How many Democrats names are also on that list that are being protected?

5. Give the poor guy a break. I's lonely in Washington, especially at night. You cannot walk the steets without fearing for your life. So calling a hooker is not only safer, it keeps the murder rate down..think about it.

8. I do not find it funny at all the Flint named a Republican Because I can READ He is going after the "moral" right

9. Mary, the Dems haven't used sexuality as a guide to question morality as the Republicans have. Most Democrats understand temptation in regard to cheating on spouses. I think most humans have a certain understanding of temptation. Dem's (Most humans too) understand that it is not correct, but also understand that people sometimes do stupid things or make mistakes The Republicans take on this "Zero Tolerence" attitude which in turn hurts them when they get caught with their pants down, and in turn is more fun to catch for people like Flint.

10. larry Flynt is is a dirty birdie. He happens to be one of the filthiest individuals on this planet. He's a pervert without any morals and shouldn't be judging others.

11. While I am no fan of Larry Flynt, he is not a politician. Just a pornographer who is savvy at getting media attention. Love him or hate him, Larry Flynt is no hypocrite.
The outrage about Sen. Vitter of Lousiana is that this man preached morality - about abstinence only, being faithful after marriage - a test HE obvioulsy failed. Republicans will always fall harder on sex scandals than Dems - except for Clinton, because he was president. Dems don't put themselves up to be oh so pure and moral the way the GOP does. Family Values? Fine..use it as your campaign slogan. But guess what? Much tougher to live up to isn't it?

12. It looks as if the Dems are using good old Larry again as they did in the Clinton years. Remember when Bill would feed him excerpts from the stolen FBI files he had in the basement of the White House to use against any Repub that was against old Bill. Once a repub would come out against Bill, Larry would publish an expose on that repub. I wonder who's feeding the idiot now.

13. Forget the DC Madame's phone list...who was in pretty-boy Jeffy Gannon's list?!?
Now Flynt should dig around that cover-up...

14. God Bless Larry Floynt, a TRUE patriot.
But exposing 21st Century Republicans for being lying, hypocritical shitbags is like proving the grass is green.
Larry: can you prove Dick Cheney is a TRAITOR and COWARD?
Who can't?
Oh, the mindless, Republican sheep. That's who!

15. The GOP should run their platform on anything but morals and family values.We know they have none.The hypocrisy is to much.They should be humble and keep in mind that humans make mistakes.They do all the time,so give-up 'we're holier than thou'crap.
