Odd that you failed to mention his party affiliation. Do I sense bias here, or was it an honest mistake? I'm sure if it was a member of the GOP it would have been the first 3 letters of the headline title.

journalism is dead!!

Bummer, for him and his family.

I don't think I'd go as far as expecting him to resign, but it would seem prudent for him to make amends for going after so many people who were only doing what he himself did.

There's a word for "consumer crusaders!" It's called communist's. Oh, did I say that? Sorry. How about Marxist? That word doesn't conger up the thought of millions dying and of gulags. Nonetheless, they all want the same thing. Putting the resources of the state off limits to the public. That my friend is communism. "Consumer-Crusaders!" LOLOLOL

Oh, by the way, what party affiliation is Spitzer? Nobody in the news mentions his party. Is he a republican?

Great crusader this guy is. He was prosecuting johns
while he was one himself. Sounds more like a Democrat than a crusader. I wonder what party he belongs to? I'll have to go look it up.

(Shouting from the mountaintop because the feckless press can't do its job) Eliot Spitzer is a Democrat! (/Shouting)

That is amusing, although it's few enough data points to suggest an outright conspiracy. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that the R's are traditionally more about spending tons of borrowed money to outlaw bedroom behavior?

dpk--I bet you think yourself a good person. Beware of he who think himself good, for that goodness is manifest of carnal desire, often the embodiment of evil;
as a result truly a bad person is he.

An educated closed minded person is more dangerous than an axe wielding psychopath.
For the axe wielding psychopath responds to reason, the educated is closed minded.

enough with the charges of media bias for every liberal news source there is a conservative one. It very hypocritical for Republicans to call on Spitzer to resign as they ahve just as many sex scandals.

And hey, why should he resign? Democrats don't care about morals, or women. Heck they have a senator who killed a woman and he's still around. They have a KKK member in the senate. Treating people like dirt is a badge of honor for Democrats. Plus, his wife can run for senate now.

Wonder if Hilary Diane Clinton or Barack Hussein Obama will be the first to offer him the vice-presidency? What a way to enhance your resume, bet other 'rat governors are kicking themselves today.

I'm being serious when I ask - what has he done that should be cause for him to resign? Is it just that he's hired a prostitute or is there more?

Posted by unregistered user at 3/11/08 4:34 p.m.

and republican have more morals? please it just as bad for them or not worst. and byrd was in the KKK as a youth back in the 1930s. He realized it was a very bad idea and denounced his past. He not still an active member.

Posted by bigCon at 3/11/08 5:04 p.m.

Boy it sure is funny. When the, I believe mayor of Spokane was caught is a sex mess, the lefties were crying "Get him Out". Now the Mayor of New York is caught, the lefties say it is O.k. That it is a personal matter. What a bunch of hypocrites.

Posted by unregistered user at 3/11/08 5:10 p.m.

As a youth? He was a Grand Kleagle or whatever they're called. He recruited members. BUT! He's a Democrat, so that's all okay. Same with the guy who left the expectant mother for dead. Now the current jerk used the name of a donor when he committed his crimes... crimes he sent other to jail for. I cannot believe (yes, I can) people are so devoted to one man that they will defend him at all costs
just for partisan reasons. It's why the press won't mention his party. Same reason. Just like Clinton. Just let him hang around and not let his Democrat successor take over, and then you'll have a Republican win his office next term. Fine by me.

I subscribe to Allen Dershowitz (sp) view; we need to get out of other people's bedrooms and bathrooms.

It is a waste of time and money for America to continue with a puritanical double life/culture.

This call-girl was making $5,000 for a night's work; she was not being abused or taken advantage of in any way.

Men, and women, of all ages and social strata have sex outside of marriage; it should be none of our business.

I find this doubly arcane given that this started with an IRS investigation. How on God's green earth can we justify the IRS leading others in to our bedrooms.

Okay, you're all right. Governors get to break the law.
What was I thinking? Only little people have to obey the laws the governors like Spitzer throw people in jail for.

Unreal.

Hey bigcon:

where was the outcry from the GOP when vitter was caught with a hooker? that's what i though.

Posted by unregistered user at 3/11/08 6:06 p.m.

Its not just like Clinton he was with a hooker he broke the law, Clinton, while being immoral did not break the law. And the only reason Bush won was because Nader took 97000 votes in FL. If no Nader Gore wins by a large margin in fL and wins the election

You know what amazes me? if you're a pretty young girl willing to bag a horny govenor or president and make 1000+ bucks an hour by **** yourself around town oh! and become instantly famous would this put you off ??? We in Europe smile at the histerical way you guys are making this out to be the end of the world, yes he did wrong in that he was in public office of trust and being a big hippocrate Spitzer got what he deserved. Hey! America wake-up no one died….Billy Kofi

Hey ! my previous comment about Spitzer saying "Wake up America no one died" seems to have woken some of u guys up..Good theres more

From a Euopean stand point this is how politcis seems to works US style

You have a vice president Dick head Cheney (thats right Dick Head) with a heart condition now high on medication shouting "Lets Invade errh! Iraq" and a cluless president Bush says " Oh! Ok where is it" make up some mad excuse about WMD hence the mess that you've got the world into.

I accept that most reading this share my view and didn't support this mad adventure but for those that do and did, shame on you!!
