THE GOOD NAME HE DRAGGED IN THE DIRT (used his best friend's name as alias)

Spitzer used George Fox as his alias in his prostitute hookup; Fox is a high-powered hedge-fund manager, and political donor - one of Spitzer's best buddies. Spitzer used George Fox checking into a hotel to rendezvous with the call girl......Fox donated $140,000 to Spitzer's campaigns back to 1998, disclosure records show. He travels in well-heeled circles, with movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, Cablevision's Jim Dolan and actress Bernadette Peters at fund-raisers for Spitzer......Fox's founded Titan Advisors 16 years ago, according to its Web site. Fox began as a Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa Exchange and Commodity Exchange floor trader. He created his own hedge-fund in 1992. He rolled his $650 million business into Titan in 2001.

I remember that when sportscaster, Marv Albert, who had a thing for forced sex, cross dressing, and threesomes was arrested for sexually assaulting some hotel employee, he had been using his brothers name, Steve Albert, as his alias when getting the hotel rooms, booking prostitutes, etc.....
I’m sure his brother was thrilled to hear that.

anytime you pay cash at a hotel that charges $1000 per night there are never questions asked. Period. That’s what you are paying for. Privacy absolute.

Isn't using someone else's name in the commission of a crime another criminal act too?

[mewzilla]

Soros gets around.

[cspackler]

no because spitz was doing the money shifting himself, at least for the hooker

That's why I referenced the room...

The Fox gets the 'Rat in the end.

That posts info for you files, AG:

The two ex-Soros pros will work alongside George Fox, who is ... NY Spitzer's biggest backer and nom-de-guere of Ol' Randy!

like a dose of the clap.

offical statement:

http://www.wnbc.com/politics/15564094/detail.html

The following is a statement from a spokesman for George Fox, whose name Spitzer is said to have used as an alias:

Published reports indicate that Governor Eliot Spitzer allegedly used the name “George Fox” as an alias in the activity currently under investigation. Mr. Fox has known Governor Spitzer for more than 20 years and has been a supporter during the Governor’s various political campaigns.

The news that his name may have been used as an alias comes as a great surprise and disappointment. Mr. Fox only became aware of Mr. Spitzer’s alleged activity when informed of it Monday morning by the media. There is absolutely no connection between Mr. Fox and the Governor’s alleged activity beyond the unauthorized use of his name.

Mr. Fox considers Governor Spitzer a close friend and is distressed by the news that has emerged.

REFERENCE Posted by NativeNewYorker: Soros angle! RYE, N.Y. (HedgeWorld.com)—The recently formed Titan Advisors group, which includes two émigrés from Soros Fund Management, is expected to launch its first fund of funds in early May with about $30 million under management. “We expect the fund to hit about $100 million under management by the end of the year,” said Thomas Holliday, Titan principal, who had previously helped research outside managers for Soros Fund Management.

The team behind Titan also includes Douglas Reid, who departed Soros only three weeks ago after a five-year run as director of banking and finance for the Quantum Fund. The two ex-Soros pros will work alongside George Fox, who is rolling his established $650 million investment management business into Titan Advisors. Mr. Fox will serve as president of the newly formed firm. http://tinyurl.com/24se25

FOX'S STATEMENT The news that Spitzer alleged used his name an alias comes as a great surprise and disappointment to George Fox (Spitler's best friend and donor). Mr. Fox only became aware of Mr. Spitzer’s alleged activity when informed of it Monday morning by the media. There is absolutely no connection between Mr. Fox and the Governor’s alleged activity beyond the unauthorized use of his name.

Now we have proof positive, with his own words, that Fox was involved---perhaps using his Titan Advisors hedge fund bank accounts to launder money to the hooker ring for Spitler.

That POS is everywhere !

“The two ex-Soros pros will work alongside George Fox...”

Spiter is about the lowest life form. His troubles are just beginning. He deserves impeachment.

Those Democrats and their ethics. LOL
