ALBANY - Gov. Eliot Spitzer has been caught on a federal wiretap arranging to meet with a high-priced prostitute at a Washington hotel last month, according to a person briefed on the federal investigation.
An affidavit in the federal investigation into a prostitution ring said that a wiretap recording captured a man identified as Client 9 on a telephone call confirming plans to have a woman travel from New York to Washington, where he had reserved a hotel room. The person briefed on the case identified Mr. Spitzer as Client 9.
Mr. Spitzer today made a brief public appearance during which he apologized for his behavior, and described it as a “private matter.”
“I have acted in a way that violates my obligation to my family and violates my or any sense of right or wrong,” said Mr. Spitzer, who appeared with his wife Silda at his Manhattan office. “I apologize first and most importantly to my family. I apologize to the public to whom I promised better.”
There's so seldom we get fed poetic justice on the Demonicrat scofflaws! Especially a abject hipocrite of a prosecutor cum Governor of NEW YORK!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
My very thought...I think there’s a wee bit more to this than what we’re getting so far..
If Elliot Spitzer's hookers were really young, he could tell his wife:
"Honey, I shtooped the kids."
I heard that interview....It was really disgusting
Talk about schadenfreude!
What I'm not clear about is whether this agency had a Washington operation or if Washington "appointments" were staffed out of New York. I guess the question is did Elliot pass on Washington girls to have one of his New York faves sent down?
It would make a big difference who's gonna get hit in the future. A New York focus is going to yield almost all Democrats, a Washington focus could turn up a lot of Republican names.
How sweet it would be IF her name IS on the list!!!!
CNN is running a big long story now about Vitter....of course!
Yes, and the most difficult part is trying to live through the worst of it at their ages.
You’re right about their daddy. He’s that and worse.
LOL!
But Charlie doesn't care! In fact that testimony in the Fleiss trial might have set him up for the male chauvinist pig gig he's being playing on TV the last few years!
Valium
Rudy and Eliot are two peas in a pod. Of Course, Rudy used taxpayer money to harbor his mistress.
See my 1225. I’m wondering whether this investigation is focused more on New York or Washington. It would make a big difference in terms of pols they might expose, so to speak.
I’m not sure they really have girls in DC if they had to send one down on a train
I am thinking the same thing. Wait and see. Perhaps the shoe will be on the other foot again. We have some very dumb Republicans preaching values while tapping out wide stances personally.
"Honey, I shtooped the kids."
That could be a promotion worthy of higher office for a dem politician these days.
His self made demise may be a devil send and promote his obtaining a higher office as a modern day democrat politician.
I’ve been thinking the same thing.
You're not referring to toe tapping, are you? :-))
BWahahahahhahahhahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaha
hahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahaha!
I think the issue is Gov. Spitzer wired money across state lines.
What do they say? "Power corrupts! Absolute power corrupts absolutely!!" And I say, there's a little larceny in every human heart and people should be careful not to tempt that little devil in another person too much!!!
By the way... if power is such an aphrodesiac, why did Eliot NessSpithead need whores???
