Livingston Is Romeo With DozensI LOVE IT GOP HYPOCRIT BITES THE DUST LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - ''Hustler'' publisher Larry Flynt said his $1 million hunt for dirt on the nation's leading politicians had turned up numerous affairs by Speaker-elect Bob Livingston and dozens of indiscretions by public officials including another ''big fish'' Republican. ''I think several more (politicians) are going to bite the dust before this is over,'' Flynt told reporters during a press conference at his plush Los Angeles office. Flynt said his investigation found extramarital affairs by dozens of top lawmakers, some documented on audio tape and all collaborated by affidavits signed by the women involved. Asked if he could prove that Livingston cheated on his wife of 33 years, Flynt said: ''I think it's much more than that. This guy sees himself as a real Romeo.'' Later, he said: ''It's not just four. I think it goes into the dozens.'' The X-rated magazine publisher, who earlier this year offered up $1 million for tips on marital infidelities by Congressman in order to prove their ''hypocrisy'' in the scandal currently engulfing President Clinton, said he received 2,000 calls and came up with 48 solid leads. From those leads, Flynt said, he uncovered indiscretions ranging from phone sex to lying about adultery in divorce proceedings to ''right wing politicians who oppose abortion yet still encourage their girlfriends to have an abortion.'' He said he paid out $500,000 to ''numerous'' people for the information and was prepared to pay still more. And he said none of his information had come from the White House. Flynt said he would disclose dirt on one more ''big fish'' -- though he declined to name that person -- and said he would expose the misdeeds of one member of the House Judiciary Committee. That person, he said, was not Chairman Henry Hyde. ''If these people are going to be sitting in judgement of the President, they should not have skeletons in their closets,'' he said. Flynt denied that he was the one who forced Livingston to tell other members of Congress about his marital infidelities, saying ''we might be getting too much credit.'' Livingston issued a statement Thursday night after learning that Roll Call, the Congressional newspaper, was about to publish a story on his private life that would raise embarrassing questions just as the Republican-dominated Congress began debating articles of impeachment against President Clinton. Flynt admitted to being ''a little disappointed'' that he had been scooped. Widespread reports Thursday identified Hustler as the source of the news Roll Call was about to print. Livingston admitted that during his 33-year marriage he had ''on occasion strayed.'' He declined to give any details but, in a reference to Clinton, said that none of the affairs was with employees or staff and ''I have never been asked to testify under oath about them.'' The Republican-dominated House of Representatives debated Friday whether to approve articles of impeachment against Clinton for his efforts to cover up an affair with a White House intern, Monica Lewinsky.

All the ~OT~ If it were not political stage would any more than a snicker or joke be told. Who else would be hauled before a Grand Jury and asked if a young trollop had given him oral sex? Any preacher? Any CEO? Really, who cares how many or who Monica has knelt before? It is old and time to be passed. It is my only hope HUSTLER magazine gets 30 more Republicans to "confess" since they seem to enjoy throwing both mud and rocks while living in glass houses. It is no ones business and no one really cares except my former political affiliation that may find (with luck) their waste of time and money backfires on them all.
