Culture of Corruption - Elliott Spitzer
The Democrat governor of New York,
Elliott Spitzer, former prosecutor and all-around crusader against sin in the state was apparently caught by the Feds and recorded conducting an illegal act or acts with a prostitution ring. Details will probably leak out as slowly as possible in the Dem/S attempt to keep a lid on it. Uh, huh, that'll work. Those that care will keep up with nefarious acts (including making his wife stand by his side during a very public mea culpa) while the vast majority will at the most make excuses for the governor's hypocritical inability to keep "it" in his pants or completely ignore the whole thing.
He's damn happy in this photo. I wonder if it was taken in conjunction with his prosecution of two prostitution rings OR if he's thinking how proud his three teenage daughters will be of their daddy.
UPDATE -
This putz still hasn't resigned as of 3-12-08. Let's see, he's broken a bunch of laws and thinks he can stay in office. In my mind, this demonstrates why the state of my birth and the Dem/s are so corrupt that I don't want anything to do with them.
UPDATE -
He finally resigned effective Monday the 17th. His prepared statement was accompanied by his wife waiting patiently for him to pull his head out of his... Anyway, it was full of platitudes and had absolutely zero actual apologetic content. I'm convinced this egotistical SOC cares only that he got caught.
Meanwhile some fools have actually tried to say that this was a personal matter despite his apparent use of government funds to pay for both travel to and rooms in which to entertain his privates' matter.
