Hardly "pathetic". It is terrifying. The police state in action courtesy of Ubergrupenfuhrer Spitzer. Expect him to outdo himself in the future as New York's next Governor.
Take heart, NY Freepers, because we are about to witness, via the election (or annoitation, if you please) the death knell of what was once the most vibrant, unique, decandent city on the North American continent.
Under Comrade Spitzer, and his homosexual, limp-wristed stooge-sidekick Bloomberg, jobs, capital, and people will finally be left no other choice but to flee NYS & NYC. Spitzer is an empty-suited crusader, a witch-hunter who wants to subject capitilism, free markets, and indeed, personal freedoms to a dunking stoll type torture test, in the hopes of furthering his communist political agenda. He is Joe McCarthy without the patriotism, the Anti-Capitialist as opposed to the Anti-Communist. Last one out of NYC please turn off the lights.
