Why is there all of this hoopla about a man spending $4300 on a hooker?
I mean come on, it is 2008 we should at least all agree that this is an issue that client # 9 and Mrs. Client # 9 need to deal with, it is an unfortunate thing... That prostitution is illegal and soft money is still legal, it is unfortunate that prostitution has a worse stigma than over eating yet I believe heart attacks kill more people annually than stds that are acquired from ladies (and gentlemen) of the night.
Yes, Client # 9 was a hypocrite in busting prostitution rings only a few short years before he frequented them. Yes, Client # 9 is a married man, yes, Client # 9 is scary looking. Really though, it is 2008, can we please quit feigning outrage?
Some of you may ask, "Jess, why would he cheat?" I could answer that any number of ways, starting with
* Because his wife quit putting out.
All the way up to
* Because he thought he could get by with it.
There are a lot of reasons that men cheat, Chris Rock said "We are only as faithful as our options." I don't necessarily believe it but Bob Kelly believes it may have had something to do with the fact that she has given birth to a third of a baseball team a whole outfield if you will.
I believe that Client # 9 got bored, thought he could get by with it and did it. If I were him I would be asking why we are attempting to enforce arcane laws instead of rewriting them into 21st century terms.
I guess we are only as faithful as our options... So, I propose that we start a write in ballot of Client # 9 for president in 2008. I just hope that this story does not affect the hooker pricing in my part of the world.
