By Hooker, By Crook

So this recent headline at Talking Points Memo,

Hooker: Duke Cunningham Fed Me Grapes in Hot Tub

got me to thinking: Isn't ANY headline made better by positioning it as testimony from a prostitute? (It also got me wondering if "grapes" was a euphemism, but that's neither here nor there.)

The whore's eye view makes taking a look at CNN.com much more fun:

Hooker: 'Baby Jessica' waiting to collect $1 million

Tart: Bhutto mobbed upon return to Pakistan

Trollop: Children's health care bill heads for showdown

Local Roundheels: Storms Rake the Midwest

Ho: France's Sarkozy and wife announce split

Doxy:
Did condemned Hussein get hair dye, cigar?

GOP sources: Hastert won't finish term

(Seriously, we know what "GOP sources" means by now... they get free grapes.)

It's like the "...in bed" fortune cookie trick.

Which, now that I think about it, is kinda the same thing, really, isn't it?
