I swear the hits just keep coming here in A-merry-ca. I mean honestly, you just can't make this stuff up.
So here we have the law and order governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer, charged with soliciting high end prostitutes, violating the Mann Act, and lord knows what else. This guy ran on a platform to clean up government; was the former State Attorney General, and he went after the boys on Wall Street like a pit bull. (Do you think they are lighting up those Cubans right about now?) Not to mention that back in 2004 he was part of an operation that led to the arrest of 18 people for; you guessed it, prostitution. So the guy should have known better. Look, I kill rethuglicans when they do dumb shit like this, so please believe that I am going to get on the dumbocrats when they fuck up as well. There is enough outrage to go around for everybody.
Watching that news conference with Spitzer and his wife up there today, you had to wonder what that poor woman was thinking. I must admit that it was hard to watch. I kept thinking to myself: what kind of woman stands by her man like that? Honest to god if that was yours truly up there I would have been in a wheel chair, and Mrs Field would have been in prison stripes. Stand by your man my ass. But you know what? I couldn't blame her one little bit.
Eliot (Or should I call you client #9 or George Fox [that was his alias] ) WTF? You were dropping $4,000 an hour for a prostitute? What the hell do these women look like, and just what is their p.....ahhhh never mind. So one of them was 5"5" 105 pounds. Just a little small for the field, but OK, I suppose she might be attractive if you are into that weight class. But $4,000 an hour Eliot? What ever happened to controlling spending in government? And this Emperor Club V.I.P. supposedly had different categories of women. You could have gotten one of these...ahem, call girls for as low as $1,000 an hour and if you were a big spender like my man Eliot, as high as $5,000 an hour. ~~But will she respect you in the morning?~~
So anyway, my man Eliot had already dropped $4,300 and had a running account with the Emperor folks. Seems Uncle Sam was looking at these people for other things such as money laundering (They made 1 million in four years), and they caught my man Eliot on various wire taps with his favorite call girl.
"I do not believe that politics in the long run is about individuals. It is about ideas, the public good, and doing what is best for the state of New York. But I have disappointed and failed to live up to the standard I expected of myself. I must now dedicate some time to regain the trust of my family."
Yeah, OK Eliot, but where have we heard that before?
As a New Yorker, I gotta say I literally fell out of my chair when I read this news. That's amazing that a dude who fought against these rings would be involved in one. Then again, it might simply be a case of knocking out the competition. Nonetheless, it's weird to see this because he had a reputation for being the one dude that would clean up the government, but unfortunately, he seems to have put a taint on it instead.
ReplyDeleteField I am asking my self the same thing how do these women stand there and smile with a d...head who just been busted in front of the world and smile about it. Me and Mrs Field got the same manual.
ReplyDelete"Me and Mrs Field got the same manual."
ReplyDeleteLMAO!!!
Jose, you are in New York, so I know you get the wow factor of this story. When will these politricksters learn?
I think this guy suffers from the same snydrome that Bill C has... they start believing their own press about their "greatness" and then their egos lift them to the rarified air of privelege that says they are bulletproof...
ReplyDeleteAs for the wife... I am sick and tired of seein these women do the "stand by your man" shit.... it is what they are told they HAVE to do by the same politicos that helped these men get there in the first place...
I wish, just once, the wife said hell no! to standing there and left these idiots standing there alone.
Eliot should have talked to Bill before spending all that damn money. Old Bill would have told him to find a fat white girl and take the booty...that's what he did as governor of Arkansas.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it ironic that a former POTUS can get away with rape while everyone else gets crucified. Because of Bill any form of sexual misconduct, any infraction regardless of whether its consensual is now political suicide.
So I guess all those politicians should thank Bill for setting the bar so high. Thank's to him a class B misdemeanor is now a felony.
Field,
ReplyDeleteMs. Spitzer looked completely done. I almost cried. Damn!
Sex scandals--- matter of time children, matter of time. Sadly.
-And what the hell is going on in NY today anyway with governors being caught up in interstate sex (did he have to buy it?) and ex- Democratic female VP nominees going totally racist (Geraldine Ferrara has lost her mind.)
May we always live in interesting times . . .
My theory: these wives stay there because by this point they're not surprised. They decided, for their reasons, to stay *long ago* when someone else would have left.
ReplyDeleteMy question is, why is it that these politicians hire all these prostitutes? Do all men do it and I just don't know about it? Down here there's a whole lotta cheating going on, and I'm pretty sure (well, wouldn't be surprised if) they send prostitutes out to the oil rigs and so on, but hiring prostitutes right in town, what's the deal with that anyway?
The Borg Queen and Client #9 are very close.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, Client #9 is a Hillaryite and a Superdelegate. Hmmmm?
So, I guess no one would be surprised that the Borg Queen had "no comment" when a reporter asked her about the fracas threatening to take down New York government.
Also, when Spitzer goes and he'll be gone before the end of the week, Lt. Gov. Patterson will become NY governor and the Borg Queen will lose a pledged superdelegate.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.

ReplyDeleteNo big deal, unless she (the female prostitute) was getting him wet (urinating on him) or pegging (strapping up and dildo-in ) him up the coal chute.
Passes the live boy or dead girl test; or is that versa vice.
`
If I were Obama I'd be talking about family values and morality out the ying yang, along with how important Michell is in his life.
ReplyDeleteSomething like; " Under no circumstance would I abuse my families trust"
He should put this aldultry incident of Spitzer front and center of his campaign, and remind voters about Bill Clintons character flaws.
I want the men to answer this question.
ReplyDeleteWHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU RISK EVERYTHING YOU HAVE FOR A MOMENT'S WORTH OF POON TANG?
Yeah, I said it, and yeah, I'm asking the question.
Eliot Spitzer was a squeaky clean at they come. Only Eliot Ness himself and Melvin Purvis, were cleaner in law enforcement.
I desperately need to understand this concept. And at those prices, that money was the equvalent of a down payment on a Beemer (and a used Beemer at that).
Field? Christoper Chambers? Mack? Christopher? Someone explain....
And Field, that pic in your sidebar is equivalent to the one of another Black child featuring none other than the Frat Boy with a similar expression.
That child is not drunk on O-Aid. You can't BS children, and that child looks like her parents taught her to develop her BS detector early. LOL
I was stunned after i heard the news about this. It goes to show you that power can really drunk your senses to do the unthinkable. You cannot see your own demise.
ReplyDeleteI come to you for candor that busts me up, and you never disappoint. Thank you.
ReplyDelete"WHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU RISK EVERYTHING YOU HAVE FOR A MOMENT'S WORTH OF POON TANG?"
ReplyDeleteWell christ. prog. it's called thinking with your "small head" :) But honestly, you would think these guys woould be old and wise enough to know what it feels like right after that moment. Fellows you know what I am talking about.
Hey, maybe the guy wasn't getting any at home. And that is still no excuse to throw away a career, and the trust of an entire state.
And thanks for that chris, seems he was a SD for Hillary. Hmmmmm.
".. Democratic female VP nominees going totally racist (Geraldine Ferrara has lost her mind.)"
leota2, I almost blogged about her. WTF?
To paraphrase Jose, as a former New Yorker, my jaw did drop. I'm not gonna judge folks that (have to) pay for it, but anyone paying that much has too much money! Send it to New Orleans!
ReplyDeleteMy wife would also leave me in shreds, but I'd be too embarrassed to press charges, so she'd get off with community service.
Lastly, I could respect Hillary if she'd given ol' Bill the heave-ho when he dallied with Monica. But her ambition kept her in check and off my list of real people.
BTW, in Oregon we have to be registered with the party whose primary we participate in. I switched to D so I could vote for Obama. (And I'd vote for him if he was white. It's not a "first" issue here.)
OT but yet another head-scratching story to come out today:
ReplyDeleteGet ready...more ish from the Clinton surrogates. Today's winner is Geraldine Ferraro, Mondale's running mate:
"I'm on Hillary's finance committee. I've done a fundraiser for her here at my firm. And I went and worked the phone banks before Super Tuesday. I have to tell you, this is a very emotional campaign for me," Ferraro said.
When the subject turned to Obama, Clinton's rival for the Democratic Party nomination, Ferraro's comments took on a decidedly bitter edge.
"I think what America feels about a woman becoming president takes a very secondary place to Obama's campaign - to a kind of campaign that it would be hard for anyone to run against," she said. "For one thing, you have the press, which has been uniquely hard on her. It's been a very sexist media. Some just don't like her. The others have gotten caught up in the Obama campaign.
"If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position," she continued. "And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept." Ferraro does not buy the notion of Obama as the great reconciler.
http://www.dailybreeze.com/lifeandculture/ci_8489268
Emphasis mine. Yes, the press has been "uniquely" hard on her, but Obama has gone back and forth from being "not black enough" to "too black" to "inexperienced" to having to denounce Farrakhan in that very same press. Yes, it's been a cakewalk for Obama (eyeroll).
This is a huge opportunity for Obama get back on message, and highlight the connections between Clinton and Spitzer.
ReplyDeleteSince Spitzer is such a close supporter of HRC, Obama should point out the obvious paralles of Bill and Eliots behavior. He should also make the argument that integrity along with experience is also important...and how politicians should never abuse the public's trust.
I kept thinking to myself: what kind of woman stands by her man like that?
ReplyDeleteTo answer your own question, Field: Hillary Clinton, 1998.

Nope Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteWhere's the message? That Obama kicks a fellow
Dem while he's down--way down. He's not Hillary. Also, he's never coughed that family values crap at people--just personal responsibility.
--As Bill actually did the creeping and is not running. . . . . (technically.) And even though Hillzilla is a mess she hasn't paid for sex and been caught. (as far as I know . . . .) So wanting Obama
to f up wagging a finger about it makes me think you are not so down with him . . . .
Hmmmm?
one million $$ over a four-year period isn't much. it only comes out to two fiddy p/y. the women probably got just a smidgen of that, maybe something like $50 th. p/y. that's no $$ for what they do. to: 11:34, Barack shouldn't do any othe the things you've suggested. why should he dig low like that. he can't jump on every disgusting, danggone thing that pops up news-wise. he's doing quite well w/o resorting to the gutter mess, thank you very much.
ReplyDeletei'll never understand why the women stand up there next to those bad boys. couldn't/wouldn't be me. not for a nano-second. husband or nor husband. love or no love. children or no children. he got himself into that mess, so he'd stand up there by himself. i sure as hell wouldn't be standing there looking so pitiful and sad while he explains why he had prostitutes in his life. i simply don't understand this ish. i can certianly understand women who support their partner--in other venues, mind you--but stuff like this. no godd*mn way. i tell you, she's a better woman than i, 'cause i simply couldn't do. it.
ReplyDeleteMany of the House Negroes of the Day, thought they "would be the One," expecting the right fairy to reward their specialness.
ReplyDeleteis it not enough that the man has cheated and thinking he not going to get caught, but standing next to him while the country watch you looking like stone queen. eff the stand by your man.. imma crack his azz with the bat!!
ReplyDeleteWhat is the big deal? I'm a woman. I could care less if my politician was cheating on his wife. As long as you don't do it on city time and use city resources and tax payer money, I could care less.
ReplyDeleteIf this guy is as good as everybody says he is - what's the big deal.
As a woman, I can tell you that women rarely leave over an affair. Especially an affair with a slut. So, you're husband got his willy wet for a few hours. Big deal. They all stay.
Move on people, there's nothing here for you to see.
Spitzer's wife (like so many before) must be on tranquilizers to be standing beside him while he tries to explain his duality.
ReplyDeleteWhy I could never be a political wife:
I would be on the way to a secluded beach resort with the kids but no cell phone, television access.
I can only imagine her humiliation and rage. Also, Eliot can't promise the White House to make up for being led by his Downstairs Eliot.
Cue Labelle's
Isn't It A Shame.
The sleazy snake Joe Bruno is laughing.
well lawd i guess it be true... naw i am not star jones...what you were witnessing is what i call white girl calculating shock...cuz you bet your Bill and Moncia, she like Hillary was doing the calculation...mo with him or mo without and its so Intel inside fast...you can't be seeing her eyes blink... true sho nuff... dis here reminds me of Ms. Malvis Staples...

ReplyDeleteWho cares !
ReplyDeleteWhere's Tyra ?
You know the GOP/Feds were after Spitzer him like meth freaks in a whorehouse.
He Boy screwed with some real big money .
He shouldn't have left the house without a Rabbi in tow - they want him bad .
Idiot Spitzer (Probably Hillary's real VP choice btw) will go down as one of the biggest hypocrites in recent history.
ReplyDeleteOne would think that with all of that experience as a Prosecutor, that he would know how to creep around without getting caught (not endorsing his creeping...just pointing out that if anyone would know how to creep under the radar...it should be him).
How dumb can you be to leave a paper trail...and to use the phone? When you are in such a high profile position...you have to meet in person, use cash, and use 'dead drop' techniques likes spies do.
It was almost as if he wanted to get caught.
And he was probably doing this before he became Governor.... that's why he felt so comfortable with his guard down.
But as a Governor of a State like New York... you have no privacy whatsoever. Your every move is documented...and there are always witnesses. So the fact that he felt comfortable using the phone and using his accounts...it's just baffling.
He also happened to be a member of Hillary Clinton's cheerleading squad... and a Superdelegate. I wonder why the mainstream corporate media isn't pointing this out. If an Obama cheerleader was in trouble... they would run the story every 5 minutes...and would try to tie Obama to the person in question. But when it's Hillary... the media goes silent.
Hopefully Idiot Spitzer will step down soon, because if he tries to drag this on, he may hurt his Party in an election year, just like his friend Hillary Clinton. He could make New York more competitive than it should be in November (although I expect Democrats to win the State). The problem with New York is that it's a quiet & closeted swing State. New York City, for example, has elected a series of Republican mayors (although "moderates")..., and upstate New York is more competitive for Republicans. The Governorship has also been competitive... so the State has the potential to swing out of Democratic hands under the right conditions.
I agree with you Anonymous 2:40 about not caring about Eliot Spitzer's sex life . . . Unfortunately, it seems the dear Governor broke a couple of laws--interstate paid sex, and doing business with money launderers. . . . I guess you have to hold elected officials to some standard.
ReplyDeleteAnd what the hell was an ex-AG thinking when he started doing this shit! Doesn't he know George Bush is tapping everybody?
Now if he had been having an everyday affair
it wouldn't have been anybody's business but his wife's. Although I'd love it if this episode wasn't fodder for our porn loving ears too.

ReplyDeleteChristian Progressive Liberal,
You know what I think about Eliot Spitzer?
It's like the tough guy who is always calling another man a "faggot" only to learn he's sucking cock in the neighborhood park.
Eliot, AKA, Client #9 needed that protective patina of SuperCop to hide his cheating ass behind (memba when he busted the prostitution ring a few years ago and called the behavior "disgusting?") because in reality, Spitzer was engaged in the very behavior he said was so offensive.
He's a worldclass H.Y.P.O.C.R.I.T.E. which is why he will receive far less sympathy and compassion than anyone else in New York.
I am delighting in the irony of the Borg Queen's superdelegate extraordinaire getting busted in Hookergate. What a reminder of cheating, straight men, who lie to their wives and families while they have dalliances with women in secret. Bill Clinton, anyone?
No wonder the Borg Queen had "no comment" when a reporter asked her for her thoughts yesterday.
But my heart goes out to his family. Especially, his three, school age daughters who will now have to deal with asshole kids who know papa is Client #9. I hope wife Silda sues him for half of everything.
nsangoma...
ReplyDeleteGeraldine Ferraro is saying Obama is "lucky" and has an advantage because he is black, and that otherwise, he wouldn't be doing as well as he is.
It's on par w/ Rush Limbaugh's statements about McNabb years back.
Such a statement ignores how Obama has needed extra security detail, the many death threats he has received, having to "denounce and reject" Luis Farrakhan and having 20% of white Ohioans who voted against him saying that "race was an important factor" among other things.
It shows ignorance and feeds the idea that Obama is an "affirmative action candidate."
We may get a black governor out of this. Albeit, a blind one. Someone didnt get paid/taken care of. This goes on at the highest level day in, and day out. I would love to know what kind of hole is worth 4-5 g's an hour. It'd have to have diamonds and oxtail stew at the bottom of it for me to pay that much for it!
ReplyDeleteBut...if he steps down as governor, NY would have its first Black governor, since the Lt. Governor is a Black man!
ReplyDeletehttp://blogs.bet.com/news/pamela/2008/03/10/364/
Field:
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I am not shock because after being a resident of New Jersey and witnessing Gov. McGreevy's confession of his affair with another man and being a "Gay American" is pretty much a walk in the park.
I am not one of these moralist and wonder why prostitution is not legal in the first place. This country is one great paradox where there is at least a $10 billion sex industry business in this country, but we act like prudes. To clarify, I am a woman and always thought it was none of my business if a man or woman wanted to pay for sex. Now I do not understand why anyone wants to pay for sex when you can get for free for the most part, but people are willing to do it.
What I find astounding that a seemingly bright and competent person would make such a poor judgement as to get on the phone to contact a high-priced call girl. However, if I was his wife, I wouldn't have stood by him becausw what would be the point. His wife has to be humiliated and being in the public eye just magnifies that humiliation.
Spitzer definitely has weaknesses as all of do, but he had successfully kept them hidden up until now. At least we now know that he is very human. I do think that if you used tax dollars for his sexual liaison, he should resigned and may have to anyway if the feds decide to press charges. However, don't feds have some identity thieves to catch?
What the Clinton's and their surrogates are trying to do is destroy Obama's chances in the general election. They Know the math is against them even w/ florida and michigan, and they know that the super delegates have been put on notice. So what do you...spoil Baracks chances in the general by providing ammo for the opposition.
ReplyDeleteIt's an interesting story that will one day occupy the books of most political science courses and maybe a few psychology texts.
ReplyDeleteWTF was that man thinking. What kind of sick fuck. . . ? The wife aint all that bad looking. Couldn't you get her to do some of that freak stuff that you just had to have?
The thing that bothers me the most about this case is that tactics used by the gov't and their corporate sponsors to nail this guy. Looks like they were monitoring the governor's accounts.
Go ahead Field, take a drink. You'll like it.
Christopher: "You know what I think about Eliot Spitzer?
ReplyDeleteIt's like the tough guy who is always calling another man a "faggot" only to learn he's sucking cock in the neighborhood park."
Stop it Chris--you almost made me pee in my pants!!!!!! ROFL LMAO!
But point well taken--Larry Craig aka Mr. Family Values, Ted Haggert aka Mr. Religious Anti-gay crusader, Mark Foley aka Mr. Champion/Protector of children from molesters and other slime balls.
The hypocrisy is quite stupefying, but how sad is it that people can't be their true selves or that they never seek treatment for the sickness in their brains.
Hill will continue to be quite silent b/c I saw two networks run stories about politicians involved in sex scandals and Bill was in both of them talking about how he never had sexual relations with that woman--priceless!
Spitzer is the type of jerkoff of whom Obama can argue needs to be purged from the party. This would include 75% of the Black Caucus. Democrats have this tendency to think they are more important than the institutions they serve or the vital missions they undertake. Maybe they learned that from OUR leaders and pastors, who knows? Regardless, their self-aggrandizing bullshit ends up tainting and often derailing those institutions and vital missions. Frankly, if I were Barack, I'd give a damn press conference on this right at the NT-Pa. border and hint heavily that Spitzer's Hillary and Bill's kinda folk!
ReplyDeleteEveryone was looking for this high price power trick stuff in DC to pop off. Well, it did. Just NOT how we thought.
Frankly I say good riddance, for Elliott Spitzer was my RA at PRINCETON when I was a freshman and I hated the m-f. Hell with his wife , too...
There is an old cartoon. Bride and groom are at the altar.
ReplyDeleteBride: I say, "I do" and I'll never have to have sex again.
Groom: I say, "I do" and I'll get all the sex I want.
Those who are married might know a bit about this.
She is also tied socially to him. One of my friends is wed to Ass*ole and she stays because of the kids, the status, the money, and where the hell would she go.
Mold
I don't care about what goes on (or doesn't) between a couple. Like an another poster said, the porn industry brings in over 10 billion a year. Who is buying it. We are so messed up in this country when it comes to sex.
ReplyDeleteMy issue with Spitzer is he committed a felony. He is a former Attorney General! He must know have a prostitute cross state lines is a felony.
This Governor has a bunch of enemies (and not just on the other side of the aisle), because he was so self-righteous and smug. I wonder if he wanted to get caught. I just don't understand the recklessness of his actions.
re: the cost of the ladies, I was talking to colleague and she knew a Heidi Fleiss girl who's rate was 10K a night.
For forty five hundread dollars Spitzer could have traveled to Thailand stayed on the beach at a five star hotel and got some Boom Boom, and some Yum Yum.
ReplyDeleteI am just impressed by how how the Dow Jones has risen since this news broke. Wall Street hates him and they are celebrating. Voodoo Man
ReplyDeleteAnybody that pays for stinking ass pussy or water is weak.[white men mostly]any woman who stands by their man in these curcumstances has low self worth.hrc stood by her man,so she can be were she is now.woman aint shit & white men aint much better.& blacks are damaged goods,thanks to amerikkka.have you ever seen your womans underwear drawer? only a fool would pay for that filth.
ReplyDeletea few random thoughts
ReplyDelete- $4k is pocket change to Eliot Spitzer
- S&P up like 4%, my favorite, GE, up 5.36%
- Basil Paterson's kid is goin to be governor of NY. What next, David Bascomb gov of MD??
"My issue with Spitzer is he committed a felony. He is a former Attorney General! He must know have a prostitute cross state lines is a felony."
ReplyDelete-Leave him alone: he was working undercover. ;-)
one more:
ReplyDelete- is Spitzer wierder than McGreevey?
Yes--when I was at Princeton he used you spy on me and my girlfriend...
ReplyDeleteThink on this weird thought--the next governor of NY will be a BLIND BLACK MAN. LAWDY...
$4,300 for poontang?
ReplyDeleteI admit it -- I don't get it and I probably never will. I mean, I wouldn't spend $4,300 for a weekend sleepover with Jorge Posada.
Hypocrites like this fascinate me. I just don't know how they do it. The incident with the prostitute that was described in the paper happened the day before valentine's day. How did he look his wife in the eye on V-day? Honestly she needs to divorce him ASAP. She is a corporate lawyer - she will do fine on her own. What a dishonest 2-faced prick. Shocking!!! Plus he has 3 daughters...would he like it if some man solicited them like that? Despicable!
ReplyDeleteSpitzer is a hypocrite, but this should be a non issue. Prositution should be legal, period. He is only one guy who got caught. You could easily take down most of the men in the business and corporate world for this same kind of thing.
ReplyDeleteLive by the sword, die by it...hell, they threw Chuck Berry's ass in jail for violating the Mann Act, why not Elliot Mess ?
ReplyDeleteMaybe this is why Billary does'nt want their tax returns public. They probably got mad tax deductions from Willy's use of the Emperor Club.
ReplyDeleteFile this one for me under how cares. Spitzer has a stiff woody in Washington, he calls a ho to take care of it. It happens every day in America. Legalize prostitution, at the very least fix the Mann Act so that any guy who has paid for a girlfriends train/bus ticket isn't a criminal. In a sane society this much to do about less than nothing, I'm sure Slida can handle it.
ReplyDelete"Legalize prostitution, at the very least fix the Mann Act so that any guy who has paid for a girlfriends train/bus ticket isn't a criminal. In a sane society this much to do about less than nothing, I'm sure Slida can handle it."
ReplyDeleteI agree with you there jp, we should legalize it and tax it. We should also monitor the people in the business for deceases. This would be a non story for me if the guy wasn't such a f*****g hypocrite. I think folks know that I am pretty much a libertarian, and I could really give a damn what happens between two consenting adults. But this guy reminds me of that rethuglican asshole Larry Craig.Passing laws to ban same sex marriages and trying to get his freak on in a public bath room with another man. What an asshole.
It's an interesting story and it's true, it's a felony, but what still amazes me is that you can get in that much trouble for having sex, but not for Guantanamo, or wiretapping everybody, etc.
ReplyDeleteField, It's silly that he would have been off screwing a member of his staff and disrupting office morale that way than doing this.
ReplyDeleteWomen are AMAZING. Nothing more to be said. How many men would stand by their women for such acts? How many?
ReplyDeleteI think the biggest problem with this man (and the situation) is that he didnt think how his actions would affect his three daughters. Im a granddaughter of a philandering politician and I can see the effects of his actions on three generations of our family. Men, use your big head sometimes!
