Charming Old Goat


Dominique Strauss-Kahn (DSK) - the old goat who was until recently head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in Washington - was questioned yesterday by French police as a suspect in a prostitution ring inquiry.

In a far cry from his glory days DSK - at one time favourite to become the socialist candidate in the French presidential elections - was held in custody at a police station in Lille.

Police have already interviewed a number of prostitutes - who have admitted having sex with DSK - but this man of the world and notorious womaniser insists he did not know that the women were prostitutes.

Strauss Khan's lawyer - issued a preposterous challenge to the ranks of the media who were  there to witness yet another DSK fall from grace: 

"I challenge you to distinguish a naked prostitute from any other naked woman" - lawyer Henri Leclerc told French television.

Charming is what I would say to that - and completely disingenuous of course - as if DSK had stumbled unexpectedly and innocently into a organised prostitution ring.

Because what else did he think was going on - why else would a strange and presumably attractive young woman - start taking of her clothes in front of 62-year-old DSK - unless she was being handsomely paid. 

Maybe he likes to delude himself that his amazing wit and repartee - left the ladies spellbound and meant they found him utterly irresistible.

But he should try telling that to his wife - Anne Sinclair - to whom he has been happily married for years - allegedly.

Strauss-Kahn resigned as head of the IMF in May last year - after he was charged with the attempted rape of a hotel maid in New York.

The criminal charges were subsequently dropped by prosecutors - but the woman involved has vowed to bring a civil suit.
