Vito Fossella Spending Weekend with Girlfriend?

Ah, there's nothing like tabloid sleuthing. The NY Post assigned a reporter and photographer to follow Representative Vito Fossella's girlfriend in Alexandria, VA and they hit the jackpot: They spotted her meeting up with Fossella and taking off on a "pre-Memorial Day rendez-vous."

Two weeks after admitting he had a love child with Laura Fay and three weeks after apologizing for a DWI in Virginia, the married-to-someone else Fossella announced he would not run for re-election and specifically said he wanted to "concentrate on healing the wounds that I have caused to my wife and family." Apparently that means not being with his wife and three kids on Staten Island, as he was seen "packing his overnight bag into Fay's car in Virginia early yesterday afternoon."

Fay, a retired Air Force colonel, wasn't very happy with the Post following her--a Virginia police officer told the reporter, "I know what you're doing. She's scared, she's been calling us." And earlier this week, Fossella's wife told the Post she "had no idea" he had another family near the Capitol.

Do you expect Fossella to cut Fay out of his life forever because the story broke? They have a three-year-old daughter; I think they might have some unfinished business. Or maybe they get off on everyone knowing about their business and that overnight bag is packed with rubbers.

Time for Vito to dump Fay and start a new family. I recommend he settle down on a compound in Texas.

What excuse did Fossella give his wife to explain his absence this weekend? Did he say that he needs to catch up on his congressional work in Washington D.C.?

He is a very busy man. A congressman's work is never done!

Mary Pat..Get the house,child support,extra for the oldest with health problems,alimony..get all you can get..and let Fay have him...

I thing Mary Pat should get herself the best divorce lawyer possible, and as for Fay...c'mon, you mess around with someone who's married, don't expect me to feel sorry for you, kid or no. As for Vito...what a sack of sh*t.
