I'd love to know. Anyhow, U.S. Senator David Vitter, a Republican in Louisiana, is screwed. Well, actually he was allegedly screwed for four months in 1999 by a prostitute in New Orleans, but after his steady denials, she has now passed a polygraph test, showing that she was not lying about the paid relationship. Wendy Yow Ellis, A.K.A Wendy Cortez, maintains that she stayed in the French Quarter and was paid by Vitter to service him while he was a State Representative and Congressional candidate. And despite the not-so-quiet accusations of Vitter carousing with a local prostitute, he was still elected into Congress on a family values platform. Niiiiiiice.</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Vitter has been denying Cortez's accusations for years. He stood next to his wife at a Louisiana press conference in July, referring to them as &quot;those New Orleans stories,&quot; and said that they were false. He admitted, however, to a &quot;very serious sin&quot; and didn't deny that his phone number was present on the call list of a D.C. Madam (entirely separate escort service in Washington D.C.).</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">The polygraph test that Wendy Cortez took was administered by an international lie detector expert, Edward Gelb, former President of the American Polygraph Association. It was paid for by none other than<em> Hustler</em> publisher Larry Flynt, who is on a mission to uncover illicit affairs of government leaders. He ran an ad in the Washington Post, in fact, offering $1 million to anyone who could provide evidence of an affair with a prominent politican. Cortez is not being paid the reward, however, because she is not the first woman to point out Vitter's indiscretions.</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Cortez said that Vitter found her through an escort service in New Orleans, and met her at the French Quarter apartment several times a week for sex. He knew her only by her stage name, Leah. After four months of intimacy, she told him she'd like to escalate the relationship.</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;When I asked him if he would like to carry this beyond business, I gave him my name and phone number, and he looked down,&quot; Cortez stated. &quot;I said, 'My real name is Wendy,' and he said, 'Oh my God.' That was the last time I saw him through the escort service. I did see him a few times at the club where I danced at after that, but he just kind of gave me a look of disbelief.&quot;</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Senator Vitter's wife's name is Wendy Baldwin Vitter.</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">&quot;She deserves to know the truth,&quot; Wendy Cortez said of Wendy Vitter. &quot;She deserves to know that he is a liar.
