Washingtonienne has been officially fired, as well as exposed, and her name is Jessica Cutler. Hey, somebody tell Wahlman he's a blogger- he's not supposed to be doing any actual reporting.
Incidentally, everybody's favorite buggery-obsessed blogger (okay, second-favorite- or third favorite) has a very similar name not only to my old friend Jordan- who has the same last name and himself was once a congressional aide- but also to another guy, Jesse Cutler, who Jeremy and I went to high school with.
Jesse is now a folk musician and in the tradition of The Replacements' "Skyway," he named one of his songs after Minneapolis' Lake O' The Isles. His bio calls him "a standard-bearer for an endangered art;" I always love music-publicity copy- on the college paper we once got a press release from a band describing its own sound as "panhuman."
At any rate, what's the over/under on how soon Ms. Cutler's book deal is announced?
UPDATE: Cutler (Jessica, not Jordan or Jesse) breaks her silence, speaking to Wonkette. There'll be a full thing on Sunday in the WaPo, apparently. She admits it's all true, and seems to be taking the whole thing rather well. The men discussed in the blog, however, are another matter.
