Spitzer Won't Resign.....
Vanity

Posted on 03/12/2008 5:57:18 AM PDT by wny

Democrats don't resign. They don't think laws and rules apply to them. See:

Bill Clinton: perjurer, rapist, felon---reelected

Marion Barry: crack-addict, prostitutes---reelected

Alcee Hastings: corrupt impeached judge---elected to Congress

Barny Frank: boyfriend runs male-prostitute service from Frank's home---reelected again and again

William Jefferson: $90,000 in his freezer---still in office

Ted Kennedy: criminally negligent homicide---reelected repeatedly

Alan Hevesi: caught red-handed using state money for personal use---didn't resign

these are just the ones that spring to mind

Interesting, 66% think he should be impeached. Is the New York requirement for a 2/3 affirmative vote for removal? This may be a close call for Spitzer’s decision.

Reminds me of Gov.Grayout Davis.

And, as a continuing mystery...Democrats keep voting the sleeze-bags BACK into office......Spitzer will probably run for President!

Spitzer will resign because the public will demand it.

Spitzer will resign because he is being forced to by the Democratic Leadership and the Mainstream Media/Liberal Press. They are throwing him under the bus so that the Obama/Hillary campaign will hopefully not get derailed.

The Dems and the MSM have been in the tank so long for Bill Clinton, that this threatens to uncork AdulteryGate and blow his precious legacy.

NO they are throwing Spitzer under the bus to protect their A$$$$es.

In her view, a portion of the tax she pays on every purchase goes to Albany. Albany pays Spitzer. Ergo, she paid the Hooker.

What about the Snickers bar? Is the Spitzer family an owner?

Although the cash used to pay for a $4,300 prostitute named "Kristen" apparently came from Spitzer's account, he used taxpayer dollars to fly to and from his .illicit rendezvous.

Investigators are looking to see whether he used state money for the hotel rooms.

At the same time, state police launched an internal inquiry into whether there was a breach of protocol by Spitzer's trooper security detail during the liaisons, a source told the Daily News.


Here.

She was making a point. It has very little to do with a Snickers Bar and more to do with the fact that he used Citizen funded state resources, in one fashion or another, to have these trysts.
