Eliot Spitzer’s expensive taste in Hookers
Goddamned the Goddamned Eliot Spitzer. Client number Nine.
The question I have regarding Spitzer is in terms of quantifying levels of hypocrisy. It is the same question I had with regard to Larry Craig. Just as Larry Craig’s central concern never involved the Gay, Eliot Spitzer’s did not really involve the busting up of Prostitution Rings. Spitzer’s claim to fame, and whyhis downfall is pretty disappointing — came with cleaning up financial frauds of major corporations. Ask him to list his proudest accomplishments, Prostitution will not come up. I suppose Craig shot himself in the foot by insisting “I am not Gay. I never have been gay,”, effectively elevating his standard issue but bluster-less record on the on that account.
Start with the not so iron-clad law that you figure that you can either frequent service from prostitutes or you can prosecute Prostution, but not both. Now we delve into laws of relativity from that spot. Spitzer has made some hay out of prosecuting prostituion, but notably if you look at the AP bullet-list today, this falls under the purview of “Other Cases”, after a list of five major corporate cases where he earned his chits. If this list were made over the weekend, you would have to wonder if they would even make the list. But key in ascertaining levels of Hypocrisy is that the question is unresolved, with no clear “No”. The lowest level of hypocrisy, roughly none, would be if Spitzer were actually fighting for the legalization of prostitution. That is never  politically feasible, so you go to the next level of political hypocrisy, which would be if he were passively leaving the wheels in motion for prosecuting prostitution, but not making any deal about it. Somewhere between there and Leading The Charge with Cleaning up the Scrouge of Prostitution as his raison d’ente is where Mr. Spitzer sits.
Oh well. His political light had already dimmed a bit anyway. And thus he falls all the way off into the graveyard of politics, victim of human weakness and a dash of hubris.

mullah cimoc say aemriki him society so destroy. this to punish for the cruel.
but some the important question usa control media never to speaking:
1. $4000 for it prositute? This the too much money. Even NY governor not to making that much for spending $4000. This meaning the cash payoff. Somebody paying the cash to this man for buy prostitute and maybe othr thing too. For sure him wife to notice if gone $4000 so often. This mean the corruption.
2. Remember him New Jersey governor to homosexual and gay with israeli agent? Am true? Whthim name the Golam?
3. This the so common way for spying to control it call honey bucket to trap the fly. And the pimp him the israeli? In waziristan this man be kill fast the stone and burn the poison moneyof the filth.

oh yeah, if anyone is naive enough to believe a great many politicians don’t have hookers etc. you had better go back and study history because this has been going on 1000s of years — this was an attack on clinton, as now obama is being attacked of antoin “tony” rezko — barack was already being savaged in the european press and now it is has started here which shall impact his campaign in a harsh fashion
watch and see
politics is war: any student of history knows that
any jumpers to report today?
ps – Big Man, defender of free speech, gonna ban me because you can’t handle the truth? that’s really american… the founders would be proud of you
go for it
this blog is read by very few as it is… just do a search on google and see where you’re listed okay? you know how many seperate IP hits you get, unless people are going through routers and unhooking them etc. or going to the library etc.
i would not doubt, with the paranoid people here, that this is happening though
i would not encourage suicide but rather encourage atonement and repentance: you all can become human again, you are not forever lost souls…

I’m baffled by your question. Um… What class or grouping of people do not get whores?
