Ordered to pay $40k for filing frivolous lawsuit. Best part:
Since leaving Congress in January 2003, Condit and his wife, Carolyn, relocated to Arizona. The Condit family ran two Baskin-Robbins ice cream stores, but have since been sued by the company over alleged management.[sic]
A shining example of the competence of our Congresscritters.
Just so you know, I DID see the possibility of the “The Scoop on Condit” title.

Couldn’t run ice cream stores in Arizona? Isn’t that like not being able to run a liquor store in New Orleans?

It’s like not being able to run a whorehouse in Nevada!

It’s sad how many things he gets conflated with when I try to remember which one this one was.

What party was Condit a member of again?

Summer of 2001 – sigh.
Hard to forget the ghoul if only for that. But also I had snapped my fibula ( ::CRACK!!!:: it was a loud snap) in early May 2001, and was pathetically homebound…
I used him as the subject of my first attempts to brush up my Amigapaint skills with that new “photoshop elements” thingie.

Yeah, but it’s a dry heat in Arizona. Wait ’til Joe Klein makes ‘em turn off their air conditioners.

“Let’s see:
Whips – check
Leather – check
Chains – check
Ice cream – ?
Ice cream – ?
Who the h*ck forgot the ice cream AGAIN?! I swear, it’s hard to get good help these days.”

I liked Geraldo’s interview with Vince Flamini(Condits driver), when Geraldo asked Flamini if Condit ever said that Chandra had nice jugs. Geraldo is kind of a funny asswipe.

Lord. Flamini…I”d forgotten all about that guy.

Didn’t Condit’s kids get in trouble for siphoning off PAC money?

They were sued for managing the stores? That’s a tough company!

“Alleged management,” wolf. I think that’s different, and overall, pretty much what one might expect of a congress-critter either current or former.
