Eliot Spitzer today decried the use of government wiretaps. According to Spitzer, the Bush Administration is using the FISA Law to entrap honest Governors like himself. "I told you this would happen if you let the Bush Administration tap people's phones". "They say they are looking for Al_Qaeda, but they are really targeting their political opponents under the guise of the war on terror" he said.
Spitzer further went on to criticize the government for preventing people from making a living. "Those ladies have bills to pay" he explained. "Some of them aren't as incredibly smart as I am, so they use whatever gifts the good Lord gave them" "To prevent them from earning the kind of money high powered legal minds such as myself earn is the real crime here"
Democrats are such frauds.
Last week The Smoking Gun posted papers about the international prostitution ring being busted, as they were last Thursday. The high-priced call girls were rated in diamonds on the club's website:
An international call girl ring that solicited wealthy male clients via a web site that rated its hookers on a scale of diamonds (and charged accordingly) has been busted by federal agents. The operators of the New York-based Emperors Club were named in a felony complaint unsealed today in U.S. District Court in Manhattan.
Spitzer was Client #9...
Club owners were wiretapped not Spitshit.
Satire. And your linky no worky.
He has to resign as he as Attorney General went after the women of the night and convicted some calling them vermin and slime. Hmmmm Elliott its your turn now.
The prostitution ring, identified in court papers as the Emperors Club VIP, arranged connections between wealthy men and more than 50 prostitutes in New York, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Miami, London and Paris, prosecutors said. Four people allegedly connected to the high-end ring were arrested last week.
The club's Web site displays photographs of scantily clad women with their faces hidden. It also shows hourly rates depending on whether the prostitutes were rated with one diamond, the lowest ranking, or seven diamonds, the highest. The most highly ranked prostitutes cost $5,500 an hour, prosecutors said.
The scandal was first reported on The New York Times’ Web site.
Pissed off he got caught!
Doesn't the Spitmeister know that PROSTITUTION is against the law? Should we exempt HIM from the LAW?
LOL!!!
We use wire taps to get people who BREAK OUR LAWS - AQ or who ever is breaking our laws - they don't discriminate and wink at hypocritical Demoncrats who want to believe they are ABOVE the LAW.
Spitzer is getting his! That POS deserves all the mockery and humiliation that is coming his way. This guy makes Richard Nixon seem completely honest. I’m sure many of his political victims are laughing their arses off right now.
You owe me a new monitor. Mine is covered in coffee from laughing too hard....
It’s satire. Unfortunately, you can’t tell these days.
you shouldn’t post this crap, people will believe it is true. I don’t believe it is true yet.
Kwami Kilpatrick has been using it quite a bit lately...
I knew it! it was Bushes fault! So now that we know it was the wire taps I guesss his wife is fine with that explanation and he can go back to his normal life! What a dumb a## moron. Hope I see you with a shoppingcart full of plastic bottles one day!
Spitzer will only resign if the Clintons tell him to. He’s a “Superdelegate”, and in The Beast’s camp, and they’ll need every one at the Convention. Wannabet he fights tooth and nail to hang on? Wannabet there’s a Clintonista response to this within a day or two, and it centers on wiretaps?
This man oughta disappear in a cloud of shame and never be seen again in public, but it’ll never happen. Morality means NOTHING to DemocRATs, only power.
God, it makes me sick.....
Beautiful...freakin’ beautiful. This sanctimonious, self-serving sonofabitch has made countless people’s lives miserable and deserves everthing that happens to him...in spades !! Wonder if he did drugs, too??
This is clearly satire. What Spitzer was really doing was going undercover to expose this prostitution ring. He succeeded!
I don't know WHO HIS GOD IS ...
My God doesn't approve of prostitution.
But wait...according to DU (just couldn't resist) it is a blackmail/extortion attempt orchestrated by Karl Rove that includes an illegal wiretap under FISA designed to target "progressive pols" to ensure continuation of the Reich. Oh, almost forgot...and it's just about sex.Excuse me while I go take a shower...
Moonbats over at the New York Times blog on this story are already all over this.
Standard excuses/conspiracy theories include:
1. Bush set him up
2. It’s just sex
3. Bush/Cheney are bigger criminals than Spitzer
4. This accusation doesn’t feed any hungry children
5. It’s a Wall Street/corporatist conspiracy to get back at Spizter
6. Women and minorities hit hardest
