Although personally wealthy, Spitzer was known to be cheap---so that spending $80,000 on hookers seems out of character with his cheap nature, However, there were many, many ways he could have looted then laudered public funds for hookers.

The New York Times discovered that Spitzer had booked the Mayflower room under the name of George Fox.

Interesting that Spitzer chose "George Fox" to register the room for his tryst....and told hookers his name was George Fox (hookers knew who he really was). NOTE George Fox happens to be his good friend--- one of Spitzer's big buck donors (see below).

Preliminary investigation showed Spitzer was hiding (laundering) money for hookers through three shell companies. Where did Spitler---the lily-white, upstanding, tolerant and compassionate lawyer (/s)-----learn those underhanded money laundering tricks?

Let's hope it wasn't at the hands of his daddy with that handy dandy tax-exempt "charitable" foundation.......the billionaire daddy who surreptitiously financed sonny-boy into office.

Spitzer got into office with large sums of funny money his father family and his buddies put up. No doubt the money had a promise attached. Could be Spitzer colluded with his father and his finacier buddies to pull off this election scam.

Like details of his prostitution obsession, Spitzer kept everything under wraps. Spitzer could have winked and nodded and assured these colluders the sums paid in for his election would get a "return on investment." Follow the money---the contributions to Spitzer's elections can all be traced back to RETURN ON INVESTMENT.

Law Enforcement should give all of Spitzer's donors a thorough going over----the tax-exempt Spitzer family "charitable trust" needs to come under intense scrutiny.

(1) Taxpayers need assurances that Spitzer's official acts are open and above-board and do not conflict with the pecuniary interests of taxpayers.

(2) All documents, phone records and computer data connected to Spitzer should be made available.

(3) A global search of the governor’s financial logs, daily schedules, staff schedules, travel records and phone records, corresponding paperwork and computer data, should be made available for public scrutiny.

(4) A public record should be made of any and all records connected to the governot's office, budget allocations, bonding, state contracts, investing/managing state revenue, investing pension revenue, were connected to Spitzer's donors.

Voters demand to know the extent to which the Spitzer admin colluded in secret insider deals that benefited his donors to the exclusion of others.

L/E AUTHORITIES NEED TO ACT ON THE FOLLOWING:

(A) Were Spizter's family, or his hedge fund donor, listed as sole owners, 50% owners, vice presidents and/or treasurers of companies with offshore addresses? Were companies listed offshore....say, in Tortola, the British Virgin Islands?

(B) NY taxpayers need to see all the SEC filings (and amended filings) of companies doing business with the state during Spizter's tenure to determine whether lucrative state bond issues, and pension fund investments were fraudulently booked by crooked accounting methods, then laundered to hide placement-fees.

(C) L/E authorities need to determine whether offshore firms----with Spitzer's sub rosa help---grabbed a piece of the NY state billion dollar pension fund investments and billion dollar state bonding/revenue billions. These funds may have been improperly directed, in order to enrich insiders.

(D) The IRS and SEC should investigate the extent to which Spizer may have used tax-exempt municipal bonding and pension investments in schemes to circumvent the IRS, SEC, and US banking laws.

(E) L/E authorities need to determine whether licensed financial hedge fund firms looking for billion dollar bond sales and pension investments were improperly directed, and whether Spitzer did anything improper to enrich hand-picked insiders.

Consider yourself highly commended^TM, Liz.

And please, consider forwarding this to Hannity, Malkin, etc.

Remember the Democrat Party's mantra when investigating Republicans:

"We KNOW there's no evidence of wrongdoing, that's why we must leave no stone unturned to get to the bottom of this!"

Cheers!

Eliot plays the Rehab Card???

[Joe 6-pack]

With a dog like that, I'm surprised Sphinczter was renting female prostitutes. Oh well....maybe he'll find himself in rehab.

And this will keep him out of jail.

Addicted to Sex (midi 3:50)
The lights are on, but you're not home.
The money, is not your own.
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another hooker is what it takes.

You can't sleep, you can't eat.
There's no doubt, you're in deep.
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe.
Another romp, is all you need.

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah

It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to sex.

You see the signs, but you can't read.
You're running, at a different speed.
Your heart beats, in double time.
Five thousand bucks she'll be fine, a one trick kind

You can't be saved
Hookers are all you crave
If there's one left just for you
You don't mind if you do

Poor, poor, Eliott. Let the healing begin

New York magazine (3/24/2008) has several interesting articles on Spitzer's fall. One in particular theorized it was an undercover operation to obtain evidence against the Gambinos in the early '80s that gave him an appetite for "covert ops."

According to someone who worked with him on that job, Spitzer never seemed more alive.
