ALBANY - Gov. Spitzer viciously berated a state lawmaker, saying, "I am a f - - - ing steamroller" who will crush the assemblyman and anyone else who stands in his way, The Post has learned.
Sources told The Post yesterday that an enraged Spitzer bitterly denounced Assembly Minority Leader James Tedisco last week after the Schenectady-based Republican called to complain that he had been cut out of negotiations on a just-announced proposed new state ethics law.
"Listen, I'm a f - - - ing steamroller, and I'll roll over you and anybody else," Democrat Spitzer angrily yelled at Tedisco - who was driving in his car and speaking on a cellphone, sources familiar with the conversation said.
Spitzer then boasted about his political strength, saying, "I've done more in three weeks than any governor has done in the history of the state," the sources said.
Tedisco later said, "He [Spitzer] has a different side to him than a lot of people realize...

The sources said Tedisco almost responded with angry words of his own - then decided that caution in dealing with the popular governor was the better part of valor.
Spitzer spokesman Darren Dopp didn't deny that a blowup had occurred, saying only that he would have "no comment" on what he called a "private discussion" between the governor and Tedisco.
But Dopp did insist that the description of the events provided by the sources had been "embellished."
It's not the first time Spitzer has been accused of going too far.
Allegations that he engaged in threatening and heavy-handed verbal conduct surfaced during his second term as attorney general, with most of the attention focused on the claim that he sought to intimidate John Whitehead, then chairman of the Lower Manhattan Development Corp.
Whitehead, in a Wall Street Journal article published in 2005, said Spitzer ripped him in an angry telephone call after he criticized the then-attorney general's investigation of American International Group CEO Maurice "Hank" Greenberg.
Whitehead, who said he took notes during the conversation, said Spitzer had said, "Mr. Whitehead, it's now a war between us, and you've fired the first shot. I will be coming after you. You will pay the price."
An aide to Spitzer insisted at the time that no threats were made against Whitehead, although Spitzer himself conceded, "I disagree with people passionately."
A producer for the Sean Hannity radio talk show also contended that Spitzer had threatened the show in 2000 after he had hung up in anger during a guest appearance.
They say that rage and lust are on the same side of the coin. Spitzer is a prime example of that, apparently.
and i don`t even feel guilty for having too much fun.
the reporters name, Dicker !
add to that this:
” OPERATORS OF “ESCORT SERVICES” INDICTED
Authorities Say the Business Was a Front for a Massive Prostitution Ring
Attorney General Spitzer said today that 18 people associated with popular “escort services” operating in New York City, Long Island, Westchester and New Jersey have been indicted for promoting prostitution and related charges. “

Spitzer has been long overdue for his “Come to Jesus” moment...
He needed his ass kicked into the reality that he was not elected to be God — but only a CIVIL SERVANT whose job is to ENFORCE the law while at the same time, OBEYING the law..
Watching the arrogant #%$#@#$ fall from grace is truly a joy.
Sounds like a typical sociopath. Threaten everybody.
I’m glad that this bum has gotten taken down by his own stupidity, before he can hurt anyone else.

I hardly knew her!

Eliot remember to say, "I never had sex with that ho, er woman!"
Indeed, all narcissistic sociopaths think they are some kind of god & they above the law!
Para-Ord.45 has posted one of the links, discussed yesterday by Sean Hannity.
This link is for anyone who feels that Sprizter was railroaded for no real crime. They can read what he did as NY’s AG in a prostitution case. When it wasn’t about him, Spritzer saw prostitution as a real and dangerous crime.

Bet the rats can’t stand this, they would have covered this one up if they had a chance!!!! ROFLMAO at this one!
When the photos of the Gov’s ‘escort’ come out the caption might be “T’ was beauty killed the beast”?

Keyword in the dominant left-wing media,

Ahhh, poor eliot, it`s such a tragedy, poor guy.
Client #9 is difficult, as opposed to hard.
“Bet the rats can’t stand this, they would have covered this one up if they had a chance!!!! ROFLMAO at this one!”
It’s probably a safe bet that the NY Slimes has been spiking Sprizters whoring activities story for a long time.
The elite left wing rats have gotten by with murder and other corruption for decades because of their control of the MSM.
That control is being eroded each day.
Keyword in the dominant left-wing media,
” tragedy “ .
Like poor Ted Kennedy’s tragedy after he killed Mary Jo and left her body in his station wagon for hours until the Kennedy’s got their lawyers and MSM mediots going.
There were no real stories about that manslaughter, just the tragedy of the Kennedy family. That bs let him stay in office and be one of the worst $inators in history.
You bet, and the MSM hates forums like FR, because we "out" them & they cannot get by with all their lies anymore!!!
I'm incredibly glad that this happened before Hillary or Obama named him as Attorney General. Can you imagine this power-mad lunatic in charge of every federal prosecutor and the BATFE?
Thank you, G-d, for pulling the proper strings to protect the people of this nation from the likes of Spitzer.
I don’t believe in Karma...but if this is karma, I’m all for it.
“I am a f - - - ing steamroller”....
No sir! You are a f - - - ing idiot!
“You bet, and the MSM hates forums like FR, because we “out” them & they cannot get by with all their lies anymore!!!”
Which is why our monthly donations to FR are the best investments we can make for our children, grand children, nieces, and nephews.
It is only a tragedy for his family. They are the only ones for whom I feel sorry in this whole mess.
Politically speaking, I am elated. However, there is a human side to this thing that is pretty devastating. As for ES himself, I couldn't care less - let him live a long, long life and beat himself up constantly for the harm he's done to his family, and for the arrogance he has had up until now. He deserves it, in spades.
It's just what they are doing, saw Alan Dershowitz on CNN last nite, took a peek to see how the commie network was covering this & he basically said that this is "no big deal" and in "other countries this wouldn't even be a headline" and that we in America are making too much of this!
Just when I think the lib left cannot surpass their ignorance, some dimwit like Dershowitz speaks out!
Thanks for the link...that seems to just have been a local operation...no mention of any International operations....Spitz went with the Blue Chip Operators....
Hey Al... Al Dershowitz,
If prostitution is “no big deal” how come Spitzer as AG went out of his way to prosecute at least two prostitution rings? It’s not that we are making a big deal of this, but that Eliot the steamroller made such a big deal out of it when he he was playing at being Mr Clean. It’s not up to us to reconcile this hypocrisy. It’s up to Eliot and his toadies (you included), and they can’t do it.
Big Digger
Ain’t that the truth!
