Spitzer swallows hard, prostitution scandal spoils dinner
By Rob on Mar 10, 2008 in Featured, News, politics
New York’s first-term Democratic Gov. Eliot Spitzer this afternoon publicly apologized for the “involvement” in prostitution he admitted this morning. Police released to the New York Times evidence that Spitzer was the client of a high-end prostitution ring called Emperor’s Club.
Much of the televised media is reporting it as, “Spitzer admits involvement in prostitution to aids.” Well don’t worry ’bout it; nobody sniched. The new Democratic governor of the world’s financia center was reportedly caught talking about some nookie via FBI wiretap. Some details you really only do get in print.
Wonder what was written on the subpoena for that wire tap. Oh right…
“It’s a good thing he wasn’t a president,” said a tall man wearing a black suit, dark sunglasses and a dark earpiece. “Impeachments don’t usually work.”

You know? Even though I vote democratic a lot, I never get invited to the late night strategy sessions at the capitol. I can only imagine the governor’s aids saying “O.K. Who ordered the veggie pie. And the white clam pizza’s here. One last piece of sausage, everybody.” and then everyone chewing and chewing until all this blows over or the gov’s out. I want that pizza. I pay taxes. I would support him though any topping, except anchovies. Why doesn’t he invite me?

Lol - this is one of the things that I find amusing about States. It is so different than in Europe. For example, Ex French president used to have a mistress and everybody knew about it, but there was no such a hard media ramblings. And a lot of other examples. In Europe nobody really cares what the politician on power is doing in his private life, as long as it does not affect his work.
