Senator David Vitter got caught buying the services of prostitutes, the D.C. Madam faced decades of prison and so killed herself. Senator Vitter, however, still has his taxpayer supported gig and uses the power it gives him to make adolescent jokes about the appearance of women. Rachel Maddow isn't feminine enough for him. (Gawker has his simpering apology.)
It's just too effing bad that Wendy Vitter didn't keep her Lorena Bobbitt vow. Or did she?

VITTER: We should go further back than that, how about high school yearbook?
MALE HOST: Oh yeah.
VITTER: De La Salle marching band.
MALE HOST: That'd be cool. Well you know, with Rachel Maddow they had that picture of her...
FEMALE HOST: Looking like a woman.
MALE HOST: Yeah it was really bizarre.
VITTER: [LAUGHS]: Must have been a long time ago.
ALL THREE: [HEAVY LAUGHTER]
