Man, I can't even wrap my brain around the amount he paid.

I'd hate to be his wife. On the other hand, she will probably get a nice settlement in a divorce.

Can someone please explain, what was he getting for $4,300 an hour? Open heart surgery and a hump? Brain surgery and a blow job? Legal advice and a screw (but that's redundant)

They forgot to mention that he's a democrat.

I am offended for all those named "John."

From Dana Milbank's column in the Washington Post:

Silda Wall Spitzer looked like a victim of food poisoning as she stood by her man's side. She cast her eyes downward at the 183-word statement while he read it. She raised her glance only briefly, when the governor admitted he had "acted in a way that violates my obligation to my family," when he offered an apology "to the public, whom I promised better," and again when he pledged to "dedicate some time to regain the trust of my family."

The silent Mrs. Spitzer -- Harvard law school graduate, corporate lawyer, nonprofit founder and mother of the governor's three daughters -- then led Client 9 away from the lectern.

Three daughters. I just do not get the compartmentalization such hypocrites manage.

This guy must have some very "unusual" sexual needs. Big tabloid news when the details break!

"The silent Mrs. Spitzer -- Harvard law school graduate, corporate lawyer, nonprofit founder and mother of the governor's three daughters -- then led Client 9 away from the lectern."

Hmmm. When he was prosecuting prostitution rings, was he wiping out the competition, or was he seeking revenge because the others weren't satisfying is perverted needs? Or maybe he couldn't afford to pay them.

So does this mean his previous prosecutions of prostitution cases were based on insider information?

"Hoist with his own petard" is what I think about this.....If he was just some idiot doing this, it's a tragedy, for him and his family. But, since Gov. Spitzer has been up on his high horse for so long, it's almost comical to watch him fall off that stead now.....that is amazing. He's not some regular guy, he is the g-damn Governor! Did he think nobody would notice?

Since he is a democrat, that is clearly impossible. However, I am sure that some of those sources did go to the media under the mistaken impression that even democrats do such things. Luckily for them, I am sure that the media set them straight about that!

ot:

the msm is reporting that these are "masked Israeli border police", yet they have zero uniform markings. The Israeli uniforms all have shoulder identification iirc. Additionally, the border police wear blue uniforms.

Now the Palestinian "security forces" have the same uniforms, weapons etc., (donated by Israel,.... we all remember that don't we?....) and have a penchent for covering their faces.

something seems fishy to me.

People, you know, and I know that Gov. Spitzer's main problem here is that he is not elected out of the state of Mass.

See Mr. Frank's boyfriend's gay callboy ring. Hasn't hurt Barney.

See Mr. Kennedy's former campaign worker Mary Jo. Hasn't hurt Teddy.

See Mr. Studds' ability to 'turn the page' while he was in office. Didn't hurt Gerry.

Eliot should move to Mass. announce for the governorship, and watch the accolades roll in.

Spitzer sings a song from "A Chorus Line":

Kiss my job goodbye,
And pack my stuff tomorrow.
What did me in is so complex.
And I will regret
What I did for sex,
What I did for sex.

Look, my eyes are dry.
But I feel lots of sorrow.
Let my pecker lead the way.
And it’s gonna vex--
What I did for sex,
What I did for sex.

Gone,
My career is gone.
Never travel on,
Get into the White House.

Kiss my job goodbye,
And pack my stuff tomorrow.
Hope that I don’t
Land
In jail.
Can’t forget
I’ll regret
What I did for sex.
What I did for sex..

Just a guess, but perhaps what he gets for $4300/hr. is prestige, boasting rights. Only such prodigies as oil sheiks, drug lords, and politicians can afford such luxury.

re: #5 Alouette

Can someone please explain, what was he getting for $4,300 an hour? Open heart surgery and a hump? Brain surgery and a blow job? Legal advice and a screw (but that's redundant)

As I detailed in a post yesterday, it only works out to $1,500 an hour.

He gave the hooker $4,300, but $1,700 of that was a down payment on a future assignation. $2,600 was fort that night's screw, plus he had $400 credit from a proevious payment, for a total of $3,000 for the night. He could have spent as much as four hours with her, but he only lasted for two hours before leaving.

$3,000 ÷ 2 hours = $1,500 per hour.

As for what he got for $1,500/hour: hmmmm, living in the San Francisco area as I do, my sexual imagination is too fertile, so I'd better stop typing.

State in Limbo Awaiting Word on Spitzer

Lt. Gov. David A. Paterson said he was in limbo on Tuesday afternoon as he and the rest of the state awaited word on whether Gov. Eliot Spitzer would resign.

“The governor called me yesterday, he said he didn’t resign for a number of reasons, and he didn’t go into the reasons, and that’s the last I’ve heard from him,” he said.

re: #115 MandyManners

He liked to suck on the toes of prostitutes.

Whenever he shows up anywhere, I think of that. It's the reason it's not possible to take him seriously.

re: #119 WriterMom

I don't deny that there would be an Israeli presence there. I am not saying that these could not be Israeli police. I'm just stating that I don't think that these guys are necessarily.

(I remember a video of "Israeli soldiers" beating a poor innocent Phakestinian. After a couple months of it going around, it finally became apparent that they weren't Israeli soldiers at all but instead Phakestinian "security forces" beating a "zionist spy". This was admitted only after the damage to the IDF was done however, of course)

Wonder where he got his money from to pay for six years of 5500/ hour? Tax payers money? Personal money? If personal money, wouldn't you think his wife might notice that amount of money missing?

Might Spitzer have been so intent on shutting down prostitution rings because he was trying to sublimate his own fascination for the "forbidden fruit"?

re: #149 Pawn of the Oppressor

I
have a pet theory (no pun intended) that furries are often closeted
people trying to find an outlet to deal with being gay. From my POV it
seems like an awful lot of them are men who are into other dudes, but
mask it with fursuits.

If you're a mouse furry who's into cat furries does that make you gay? Straight?

re: #134 buzzsawmonkey

I've heard of a duck-billed platypus, but Spitzer would seem to be an over-billed priapus.

LOL! You have an awesome way with the English language!

The Wall Street Journal has a good editorial on him today.
They threw in the word "nuts", but managed to write the whole thing without ever using "a$$hole".
That's better than I could have done.

re: #48 Charles

Picture Spitzer dressed as a French poodle...

picture him as a weasel.

re: #141 BeerDrinking_VictoryMonkey

Just Priapus I think
and I think the dick was banned

re: #154 loppyd

Just GET OUT already!

That's what she said!

re: #160 MandyManners

AMEN.

why the heck is his wife even standing by him during that speech? Ridiculous. Makes her look like an idiot.

re: #141 BeerDrinking_VictoryMonkey

Wasn't there a troll around these parts who called himself "King Priapus?" He was a real, well, you know.

re: #161 bulwrk

What kind of message does that send to her daughters?

A terrible one. When I found out my ex was up to some funny business - I threw him out right then and there. No way was I going to have my kids subjected to that kind of crap.

The comment section over at BBC is filling up quite nicely on this. Most of the recommended posts say Spitzer should go, the sooner the better. Quite a few from folks with...south asian?...names, excusing poor Eliot for doing something that isn't even illegal in some countries. I guess they have no concept of what a Governor or Attorney General should be up to. And a number from the States bemoaning the continued presidency of global war criminal Chimpy Bushitler, while Citizen Spitzer goes down for the Mann Act.

re: #142 Dianna

I had a couple thoughts on that - and I'm giggling madly - but I think I need to get back to working on proposals.

The problem is, well, this is just too much fun.

Yes, yes it is. Beats thinking about ShortShit's latest antics.

good for you

One thing you can be sure of -- the media will find out exactly which type(s) of bizarre sexual behavior Spitzer was addicted to. There are probably hundreds of reporters burning up the phone lines right now to dig this up.

re: #183 WriterMom

HA!

Maybe he met with his hookers on his yacht.

re: #174 buzzsawmonkey

I suspect it is more an expression of infantilism; people wanting to be, and sleep with, stuffed animals.

re: #155 Dianna

He liked to suck on the toes of prostitutes.

Whenever he shows up anywhere, I think of that. It's the reason it's not possible to take him seriously.

Ew. Talk about foot fetishes.

re: #164 BabbaZee

Zombie, is this Furry crap some sort of regressed cartoonish expression of a genuine desire toward bestiality?

Yes.

Also, it comes from anime and manga -- a lot of anthropomorhpic cute-furry-animal-sex in the comics.

Frankly, these people are sick in the head. But they're mostly harmless, and provide entertainment for the rest of us.

How Did Gov. Spitzer Slip Security Leash?
[Link: abcnews.go.com...]

ABC News has learned that Spitzer routinely tried to push off the one or two state police officers who accompanied him out of town, suggesting to the troopers that they didn't need to accompany him as he went to the gym or telling them he was going to turn in early.

Currently, senior officials have asked the New York State Police to take a hard look to determine what, if anything, members of the security detail could or should have known. So far, it does not appear those troopers "looked the other way" and turned a blind eye to the governor's alleged trysts.

According to senior law enforcement officials, Eliot Spitzer, "going back to when he was attorney general," at times kept his security detail at a distance and had been known to tell troopers to stay behind with the car while he walked to his office, a restaurant or a function. Sources said that even at its tightest, the Spitzer public security detail was far smaller than the full phalanx that his predecessor, former Gov. George Pataki, employed at large public functions.

That too. A three-way collision of fetish dysfunctionality: infantilism, repressed bestiality desires, manga fan-geekism.

re: #161 bulwrk

"Daddy can buy mommies like mommy's maid buys milk at the grocery store."

Kids need fathers. Especially girls.

Good going, Spitz.

If there's a problem with Paterson, then Joe Bruno becomes Governor.

How delicious would that be?

re: #176 israel4ever

Sing it, Tammy!

I too am baffled by the wife. Imagine being married to a man who can keep that lie afloat for six years! (That we know of.) That takes some real skill.

"Mr. Spitzer's office has clearly spun his verbal tirades as mere differences in recollection, and since most took place in private, he's so far received the benefit of the doubt. But in other instances--Mr. Grasso, H&R Block and Mr. Greenberg--there are disturbing suggestions that Mr. Spitzer is peddling information to the public that may not be accurate. You can bet that if this were President Bush, the press would be all over the disparate versions of events. But this is Mr. Spitzer, who at this very moment is running campaign ads that are nothing more than a compilation of the adulatory headlines he's received over his tenure.

Far better for the public if a little more light were directed on these discrepancies. Mr. Spitzer is asking to govern one of the most populous states in the nation. Politicians are certainly allowed "passion," but given the power they wield they also have to demonstrate restraint, honesty and good judgment. Voters deserve to know if Mr. Spitzer has the character to hold such a job. "

re: #211 Pawn of the Oppressor

Terrible for the girls.

client #9 is deranged. he is so out of touch w/ reality. i'm sure he is not going to resign w/out a fight. he probably doesn't think he has done anything wrong. and even if he does know he has done something wrong, he doesn't think it should matter because he is exempt from laws that apply to ordinary people. spitzer is pathological narcissist.

Spitzer allegedly used the escort service for at least six months and paid more than $15,000 for numerous meetings, a source familiar with the case told WNBC.com.

#178 BabbaZee

YES! I second WriterMom's plea! FOR THE LOVE OF LIZARDIA AND BALDWIN IV, THE LEPER KING, DO NOT---I REPEAT---DO NOT GO THERE!

MSNBC's spin is that those calling for his resigning are all "prudes!"
[Link: newsbusters.org...]

In the 3 pm hour, in the first blush of the prostitution revelations against liberal Gov. Eliot Spitzer of New York, MSNBC’s experts quickly described the scandal as a nothing-burger. Alan Dershowitz attacked America for being a ''pandering society and hypocritical society,'' since this wouldn’t even make the back pages of a newspaper in sophisticated Europe. "Big deal, married man goes to prostitute!" .....

Oy Veh!

"Mostly harmless". So what percentage of them are bad folk? How often will the world be subjected to, say, a fat guy in a wolf suit going on a sodomy-and-bank-robbery spree?

The dry cleaning bills for the fur suits must be terrible. I can't help it I'm still laughing.

If he's been doing this for 6 years, you've got to figure he's dropped better than $100,000 on hookers. He could have bought some nice investment real estate, but he blew the cash on high-dollar whores. Damn, but his wife has to be pissed.

Eliot has got to go but he's such a stubborn asshole who is not going to leave...

I could see him hanging on no matter what... Knowing that the Republicans in Albany are VERY weak politically, he can turn it into a partisan issue and survive (maybe)...

I hope he quits but I don't like the Lt.Gov. from an ideological standpoint either.

re: #161 bulwrk

Good point. People in this situation, like Dina McGreevey, say they're putting on a brave face for the children, but to me, the message it gives is "I have no self-respect, I tolerate your father humiliating me, and appearances are more important than doing the right thing."

Sayeret Matkal and/or Shin Bet. They both wear masks and both operate without unit markings on their uniforms.

As far as I know, no M-4 carbines (short M-16), or M-203 40mm grenade launchers were provided to the Palithugs.

The vehicle shown in the photo series is an AIL Storm (or Sufa). Based on the Jeep Wrangler. Although early models are available to the civilian public, they don't come with that paint job, and I don't think they were given to the Palithugs.
