The Democratic governor of New York, Eliott Spitzer, has admitted to senior officials that he is involved in a prostitution ring.

Did I mention this is a Democrat? I did? Oh, OK. I’m taking a cue from the media, who always make sure to identify Republicans caught in scandals with 80-point headlines. It’s all about accuracy.

The word “Democrat” does not appear in this Associated Press article: NY governor linked to prostitution ring.

UPDATE at 3/10/08 11:58:35 am:

In every language, the first word after "Mama!" that every kid learns to say is "Mine!" A system that doesn't allow ownership, that doesn't allow you to say "Mine!" when you grow up, has -- to put it mildly -- a fatal design flaw. From the time Mr. Developing Nation was forced to read "The Little Red Book" in exchange for a blob of rice, till the time he figured out that waiting in line for a loaf of pumpernickel was boring as f*ck, took about three generations. ... Decades of indoctrination, manipulation, censorship and KGB excursions haven't altered this fact: People want a piece of their own little Something-or-Other, and, if they don't get it, have a tendency to initiate counterrevolution.
