What's wrong with prostitution...?

Law defines it as morally corrupt?

God doesn't approve?


No aggression is involved... >.>

Mr. Spitzer, a first-term Democrat who pledged to bring ethics reform and end the often seamy ways of Albany, is married with three children.

Just last week, federal prosecutors arrested four people in connection with an expensive prostitution operation.

Wow....
The New York mayor was pretty weird too.....

Prostitution is a dispicable thing. I don't believe that we should punish those who participate in it though. It is a moral issue and should be battled as such. However, it is good that this liberal governor will step down. I mean he wanted to give driver's licenses to illigals.

I could care less about the Prostitution.
Dishonesty is another thing.

You should care about the prostitution. One of the biggest commitments in a persons life, marriage, was deliberatly broken by spitzor. How can you really trust a man on his campaign promises, if the promises to his wife don't even hold up. Sorry, but being involved with prostitution is dishonesty, not to mention a whole bunch of awful character traits.

As you know, prostitution is still illigal. If an investigation can convince a judge with enough evidence that someone is involved in breaking the law, then they will permit a wiretap.

THe hypocracy. The man as attorney general carried out several cases against prostitution rings.
I guess they were the ugly prostitutes and that makes it ok:rolleyes:

This has a lot of implications.

He could end up loosing his bar license. It is a crime in NY.

Further if he was involved, while he was prosecuting the other prostitution ring case, that could be thrown out. One is suppose to come into court with clean hands. Otherwise you can't be breaking the law and prosecuting someone doing the same thing as you are doing.

They also mentioned he had some other prior problems. I doubt he will last.

I went several paragraphs in without the article detailing which party he belongs to. This means he is a democrat.

Fox news saying their sources saying he will resign.

Not listening to Fox, it was a printed blurb.

The "they" who tapped and then offered him up have a plan. First off this is a good thing, "they" can show how their illegal wiretaps are really a good thing.

Second, they would never let this happen to one of their own, this was a sacrifice for the greater good.

Thirdly, it is to strike fear in all their enemies hearts, (the few good guys) that they are listening.

Mann Act,

Transporting a prostitute across state lines.

He is likely history as an attorney, and might want to retire.

This one is not going to go away.

I bet the attorney's for those he convicted for prostitution, are getting the briefs filed to overturn the convictions. Count on it.

Spitzer

Everyone is right about Spitzer, of course, and I single out Bill's insightful comments about "derivative crimes." In addition, the seizure of private text messages and emails is especially disturbing to me. However, this ruthless slimebucket - Spitzer - has only become a victim of the totalitarian system that he worked so hard to enable and grow. This bastard doesn't deserve a single tear (let alone a libertarian defense), and in fact, it'll be justice when he faces the same kind of politically-ambitious totalitarian torment that he has administered to numerous individuals, entrepreneurs, and successful businesses. He has destroyed umpteen lives and business ventures in order to fulfill his ambition to ascend to the ranks of the dictatorial, ruling elite. May he join Nifong in the nether world of payback and ruination

Spitzer is Client-9. I wonder what Client number(s) are designates for "Bubba" Clinton? Who else do we know that is listed in the indictment? How many Clients are there? At the reported rates being charged for "services", I would guess not too many. McCain??? Wouldn't that be cool? < please, please, please! > Stay tuned for further developments!

The 5% Secret Rule applies to Elliot Spitzer... meaning;

Since he's a Career Politician and Wealthy... he can only be charged a maximum of only 5% of the penalty.

Don't you just love these NARCISSISTIC Politicians... they think because "they" are Wealthier and have Political Power, they are So Much Smarter than everyone else

What a MORON government SPITZER is... he could of got a "PAID PHONE" and called only on the road (because all mobiles are Trackable GPS) and use a PAID VISA card or cash for purchases.

IDIOT!

His wife is attractive. Why the hell did he need prostitutes? Was it that he could do kinky stuff with them and the wife wouldn't?

I guess the daughter there is fugly because of his genes, not hers.
