GOP Convention to Boost Local Sex Business
With thousands of Republicans set to invade the city this summer, high-priced escorts and strippers are preparing for one grand old party.
Agencies are flying in extra call girls from around the globe to meet the expected demand during the Aug. 30-Sept. 2 gathering at Madison Square Garden.

"We have girls from London, Seattle, California, all coming in for that week," said a madam at a Manhattan escort service. "It's the week everyone wants to work."

Newt Gingrich is going to be at the GOP convention?

1. Republican Family Values on display
Is Jack Ryan going to be allowed to speak? Or is he being shunned because he was caught trying to use 7 of 9 as a hooker? BTA, he got caught doing what Repukes wish they could do and get away with.

3. Not to mention that when they are done with you
they'll B*tchslap you, then demand you get on your knees and pray for forigiveness that you tempted them so.

4. I wish the cops would have time to conduct Sting Operations
but I suspect they will have their hands full.

5. At least the hookers are trying to make an honest living,
unlike the Republican whores who are hiring them.

8. I don't get these "escort services" that advertise.
They advertise so much as escort services, but don't they offer sex? Why doesn't the police just go after all of them?

9. I can verify this completely
One of my many activist hats is being a sexworker's rights activist.

I have had conversations with a number of sexworkers about political conventions, and they all say the same thing;

The GOP convention is great for business; They are desperate for sex, especially kinky tricks, and they have lots of money. In addition, corporate lobbyists often pay the fare for highly placed Republicans.

On the other hand, the Democratic convention is deader than can be for working girls. Democrats bring their wives and girlfriends along and don't look to rent any companionship.

10. The Religious Right and Capitalism
They're against free love.
They believe in paying for it.
