WOAH! I think he's done!

Spitzer Is Linked to Prostitution Ring
Statement by New York Governor Expected Soon
By DANNY HAKIM and WILLIAM K. RASHBAUM 12 minutes ago

Gov. Eliot Spitzer has informed his most senior administration officials that he had been involved in a prostitution ring, an administration official said this morning.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/10/nyregion/10cnd-spitzer.html?hp

Quote
Just last week, four arrests were made in connection to a high-profile prostitution ring involving big-dollar clients.

The Times reports that a source with knowledge of the governors role believes the governor is one of the men identified as clients in court papers in the prostitution ring.

Quote
Mr. Spitzer, a first-term Democrat who pledged to bring ethics reform and end the often seamy ways of Albany, is married with three children.

Bye-bye, guvnah! Take your anti-2A idiocy with you!

Heh. Smiley

It just exploded all over the networks, now.

Really, this is even more disgusting than a politician doing that. He was the Attorney General, and didn't bust a high-profile prostitution ring, he used it...and turned a blind eye to it. That's just as bad as a crooked cop, if not worse.

This is going to shake up a lot. He was a superdelegate, and a strong Clinton supporter.

I'm just glad he's out, he kept trying to push laws against people trying to legally obtain firearms.

The MSNBC story notes that patrons of the ring could rate the escorts and some of the highest-rated escorts charged up to $ 5,500 per hour.

Ain't no way in heck that I am paying $ 5,500 for an hour of that.

He's being indicted. Why should they leave it alone? He broke the law in letting people break the law and broke the law in using their services as well.

A crooked attorney general is a very, very, very bad thing.

Um. If he was AG, he was supposed to be prosecuting this sort of thing, not using it.

Spitzer went after TWO high-cost prostitution rings when he was AG of New York.

Spitzer was about 3 years ahead of me in high school.  He was involved in student government and I think was president of the Governing Council.
He was a slimy little weasel then and I'm happy to see he hasnt changed much.

Do ya need more then 30 seconds ?   angel grin cheesy rolleyes
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Why do these wimps always drag their wives out?  What did she do to merit the humiliation (besides marry a deceitful putz) ? Why can't they man up and face the music on their own?  Larry Craig did the same thing.
