Ernie Els Scoffs at Losers

This story is basically a bummer.  A perfectly legitimate fun business being harrassed.  It's not like anyone in DC is going to want to have sex with Pelosi, Hillary or shalana millard, among other dog faces.

The demise of a call-girl ring and pending trial of an alleged madam claiming thousands of clients has the US capital riveted.

Deborah Jeane Palfrey, 50, dubbed the DC Madam in local media, has been arraigned in federal court on charges of operating a Washington DC prostitution service for 13 years until her retirement last year.

Palfrey has denied she ran a prostitution ring. Her company, Pamela Martin and Associates, was simply a "high-end adult fantasy firm which offered legal sexual and erotic services across the spectrum of adult sexual behaviour and did so without incident during its 13-year tenure," she said.

Palfrey contends her escort service provided university educated women to engage in legal game-playing of a sexual nature at $US275 ($A333) an hour for a 90-minute session, the Washington Post reported.

But Palfrey has also hinted that she has a record of the phone numbers of thousands of more than 10,000 customers that could embarrass more the a few of the US capital's high-fliers.
