Client #9
Is it just me, or does Eliot Spitzer have no neck?
Is it a funny dress shirt collar, or what?

Seriously, democrat or not, eff this guy. While I love me some schaedenfreude when a moralizing, anti-sex religious prick gets caught with his pants down it’s just as rich when it’s some pious, law and order, zero tolerance tough on crime type as well. Especially since he’s busted and lectured about prostitution rings before. What an idiot. He deserves every bit of shit he gets from this. And for the record I don’t think it should be illegal. I also find the irony of him being a Clinton supporter fairly rich as the campaign and her supporters have cried sexism at the smallest slight or word and here a staunch supporter of hers and the governer of her “home” state is caught buying women like commodities.
Yeah, everything Kevin said.
I don’t get why someone who built their career on busting up prostitution rings would let himself be a client. There had to have been better ways to cheat on his wife, like traveling to a Lord of the Rings fan convention and playing the Smeagol/Gollum angle for the ladies.
I’m with Justin and Kev. This guy is a bull-headed, arrogant prick and he always has been, whether it was as AG or as the gov.
The thing that gets me most about him is that when he was running for governor two years ago his platform was entirely based on cleaning up corruption in Albany. In August before he was elected, he yelled at me when I asked him whether one man could really turn around decades of entrenched beaurocracy.
So now that he’s been investigated twice in just over a year (the first being when he illegally used the state troopers to dig up dirt on his chief political rival), I can’t help but wonder what was going on behind those eyes that were so incensed when he was asked how he was going to lead the state down the right path.
Fuck this guy. I hope he starts a career in porn as ‘the Steamroller.’
I haven’t seen any documented evidence of this but I’ve read people pointing out that Spitzer was one of the people in favor of the expanded wiretapping laws and removal of restrictions that bush and company were/are seeking, the kind of which were used to bust him. Oh the rich, rich irony of it all.
