May 25, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - If the war and the presidential election aren't generating enough headlines, Washington finally has the ultimate attention getter: a good, old-fashioned sex scandal. Thank Jessica Cutler.Her Internet diary, which graphically recorded what she claims are steamy sexploits with powerful D.C. lawyers and Bush administration honchos, has exploded like a grenade in the nation's capital.
"They couldn't run me out of town. If they could I would already be gone," said Cutler, 24.
Not that they didn't try.
When staffers in the office of Mike DeWine, the conservative GOP senator from Ohio for whom she worked, were alerted to her "blog" (short for Weblog) - called the "Washingtonienne" - she was unceremoniously fired from her $25,000 job sorting mail.
But don't worry about her finances. She's entertaining offers to buy the rights to her tale - and she's also learning about fame, with top TV shows begging her to appear.
The Bush White House is notoriously straight-laced and Washington hasn't seen a juicy sex scandal since the days of Monica Lewinsky.
"I still don't get what all of this is about. If I was reading my own blog, I would feel my life was much more interesting," said Cutler yesterday.
She said her blog began earlier this spring when she sought to keep friends updated on her busy social life. These included descriptions of rich older men giving her money for sexual favors.
"None of these people were geriatric or unattractive. And the money was just a gift," said Cutler, who claims a powerful married man with a senior job in the Bush administration frequently gave her $400 after sex at a hotel.
She also says she had sex with an older, divorced lawyer from Georgetown whom she met while working as an intern in the office of Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.). The lawyer also gave her money, she said.
She hasn't identified the men she says participated in the fun and games - or offered any proof that she wasn't writing fiction.
But her last postings were awaited as eagerly as the latest political polls.
Her escapades burst into the spotlight after online columnist Wonkette linked her column to the blog, which has now been pulled down.
OK, now you've stumped me back. "Gen. Eccccher"? I'm not familiar with that one.
And by the way, I can't stand images of him, either. My monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster. Too many FReepers have referred to him as the Sink Meister, etc., and the unwelcome visual images of THAT are making me *shudder* some more....
IDFOPH? Hmmmmm.... It could work....
How brillaint is this. Cutler can make this accusation without a shred of proof in an election year and it gets reported. This could all be a Leftist scam.
I can hear them now, "If you want to vote for them on values, remember that a Bush appointee screwed Washingtonienne."

This is one of the most bitingly satiric looks at the cultural wasteland that was the decade called, "the 90s."
I'll let you nibble on just one quote that proves its coauthors prescience:
But what does it matter? With anti-incumbent fever crossing generational boundaries, Ecch is likely to rule over a time of single-term presidencies, continuing in 1996. The president is so overexamined at this point that it's impossible for him to do anything right. The Republicans, having gotten over the maniacal xenophobia of the '92 convention,should change strategies and capitalize on this by running Bill Clinton against himself in '96.
Okay, so that wasn't the best example.
You really need to read it for yourself.
Believe me, it'll be worth your time.
I wish I could recall all the creative acronyms bandied about this site over the years- they included Impeached, Disgraced Former Occupant, Rapist-in-Chief, Commander-in-Briefs, Unconvicted First Felon, One-Man Crime Wave, and a whole steaming pile that my poor old mind can't dredge up now.
OK, I'll PENCIL it in on my wish list--although does one get around reading an author named Krugman, published by Simon & Schuster? More investigation will be in order...
That's the IMPEACHED ex-42!
LOL! See backhoe's Post #26 for more. Too many for me to remember; and frankly, who wants to remember? ;o)
"slunkmeat hooker" sounds like a smoked meat snack - like a slim jim / gnarly jerky thing...LOL
Sounds like Uncle Teddy couldn't be TOO FAR from this story.

Calling IRS. Calling IRS.
Wonkette is one of my favorites, too.
"Mike DeWine, the conservative GOP senator from Ohio ?????
Um, no. That should read:
...Mike DeWine, the spineless wimpy RINO fink senator from Ohio..."
TARGET! FIRE FOR EFFECT!....(grin)

For your archive, since this story has legs. There are a couple of reasons Jessica Cutler will be hard to ignore. |
I don't know. The long face, the protruding nipples. Sure that's not one of Kerry's?
