Can't Find Honest Work

I noticed the article yesterday about Gary Condit suing three tabloids for, as the suit says,

"The stories published in The National Enquirer, The Globe and The Star portrayed Condit as a “murderer” and “sexual deviant” and “caused him to be exposed to public hatred, contempt and ridicule ... for things that never happened,” according to the suit filed in Palm Beach, Fla."

Poor Condit, he just can’t seem to line his pockets with any honestly earned dollars.  Although Condit did honestly earn the public’s hatred, contempt and ridicule, for dissing his wife in favor of the young Levy.

Via Drudge.

Update: I couldn’t recall where I had read the quote below when I posted this earlier this morning, but, because I think it is appropriate, I add it now.  The quote, from the tome "Plutarch’s Lives," is spoken by Aemilius Paulus to Perseus.

"Why, unhappy man, do you thus take pains to exonerate fortune of your heaviest charge against her, by conduct that will make it seem that you are not unjustly in calamity, and that it is not your present condition, but your former happiness, that was more than your deserts?"
