Attorney: Can you in general terms describe your relationship with Ms. Levy?

Condit: We were friends.

Attorney: Did your relationship ever become a romantic relationship?

Condit: No.

Attorney: When you say you were friends, did it ever become more than just friendship?

Former Congressman Gary Condit has denied having an affair with murdered intern Chandra Levy, contradicting allegations from police and Levy's family that he did, according to tapes obtained by the Today show.

The revelations come from testimony that was part of an $11 million defamation lawsuit Condit filed against Court TV and Vanity Fair reporter Dominic Dunne.

"Attorney: Did your relationship ever become a romantic relationship?

Condit: No."

Yeah, I can believe that; there was nothing romantic about the relationship.

Just like Clinton and Monica.

Exactly. Define "affair."

Perhaps he didn't have an affair; he just had sex with her.

HMMMM... wonder if Mrs. MeanWestTexan would buy that one?!

Yeah, but really, we know who this guy is now. He had code communications with his girlfriends and an apartment for his indiscretions.
Should we take the word of a snake or even care what he says under oath?

Mr. Condit.........you are scum.

I do not understand how he can lie now when he admitted to the police that they were sexually involved.

I see that Lin Wood is his attorney. Another scumbucket.

Q: Did your relationship ever become a romantic relationship? When you say you were friends, did it ever become more than just friendship?

Condit: Would you please define for me the following terms: 'your', 'relationship', 'ever', 'become', 'romantic', 'were', 'friends', 'did', 'it,' 'more', 'just' and 'friendship'?

He absolutely lies all the way through that. If the attorney had held up a yellow coffee cup, Condit would have called it blue.

Condit: Her disappearance and the whereabouts of her was all over TV, and there were news people who wanted to talk to me around the clock. It was not comfortable because they were everywhere.

Man, if someone I knew "just as a friend" disappeared like that, I would be happy to help and it wouldn't be uncomfortable. All about you, Condidit.

He testifies they met only six or seven times at his Capitol Hill office — and only once at a restaurant.

So the 3-foot-long curly black hairs that Condit's flight attendant fling saw in his bathroom sink got there how?

Did your relationship ever become a romantic relationship?

What an idiotic question. As many have pointed out, and with apologies to Tina Turner, romance had nothing to do with it. Let me try: Mr. Condit, did you ever engage in sexual contact or conduct with Miss Levy, romantic or otherwise?

Supposedly, the three congressmen in question would get together for "romps" with women. There was allegedly S&M and blackmail of the participants involved as well.

Condit: I have a guy that's on Court TV, who writes books, who has legitimacy, credibility, telling people on TV that Gary Condit had Middle Eastern people organized to do away with this woman. How absurd, how lame. But it hurt. And it hurt me badly. It shut me down.

Attorney's next question: Did it shut you down enough to stop your hair highlighting appointments?

Those two were reported to be part of a sex party ring with Condit. This was back pre-9/11 and I've since gotten rid of my bookmarks on Condit, but it's widely believed why those two didn't run for re-election.

Ahh the Summer of Chandra, last gasp of the carefree Gay Nineties, just before our decade-long vacation from history ended with a bang. I'm tellin' ya, if we had only elected John Kerry he would have made everything warm and fuzzy again and brought back the good old times. Oh well.

On a less profound note l'affaire Condit marked the end of Dominick Dunne's career as a serious crime reporter. I had admired his earlier writings and I followed some of his articles in Vanity Fair over this incident--to my shock and horror--he became the star of his own show. The bizarre theories he floated about Chandra's disappearance (sex slave in a saudi sheik's seraglio) took second place to his glamorous globetrotting and name-dropping. I lost all respect for him. He turned himself into just another literary court jester to the rich and infamous.

Perhaps the most disturbing aspect to the story was Chandra herself. Nothing new about a philadering pol. But Chandra seemed to be so much more grounded than the pathetic Monica and yet she too, fell for a powerful lowlife and refused to be dissuaded by her family.

Exactly! Lin Wood should set off red flags to everybody!

I said it before and I'll say it again: Condit made a HUGE mistake in bringing this lawsuit against Dominick Dunne; Dunne will NOT rest until he proves his case.

Dunne LOVES trials. It's what he does for a living. No chance. Remember, his daughter was a sweet young darkhaired girl like Chandra and was murdered. He started the opening of the Skakel case. Nope, Dunne is patient and Dunne wants justice.

Attorney: Did she ever discuss having a relationship that was more than friends at some future date?

Condit: No.

Lin Wood (Condit’s attorney): I'm going to object, excuse me….

Condit: I'm sorry….

Mr. Wood: … to the extent that it seeks to go into areas of sexual conduct.

I too was rather surprised at some of Dunne's reporting on this matter. However, Condit is going to regret taking Dunne to court.
