Who’s In That Little Black Book?
Oh it’s going to be an exciting Friday night in our nation’s capital. People will be sitting clustered around the politico hangouts drinking Grey Goose and waiting with baited breath for ABC’s 20/20 to start.
Why, you ask? Well, the DC Madam as she is infamously now known handed over her little black book of telephone numbers of her clients, movers and shakers in the political world of Washington DC politics.
Already that little black book has brought down one deputy secretary of state and the DC Madam’s witness list includes “a Bush administration economist, the head of a conservative think tank, a prominent CEO, several lobbyists, and a handful of military officials.” (WaPo 5/1/07)
To be sure this will be a nonpartisan blowup with the revealing of names with torture-like slowness since she apparently has thousands of phone numbers from her “escort” business.
While I am sure that many of the owners of those telephone numbers are hoping that she just pleads guilty to the charges and goes quietly, it doesn’t look as if that will occur since she gave the numbers to ABC News.
Indeed 20/20 will be the hottest ticket in Washington DC on Friday night.
