Elliot Spitzer is going down.
Martha Stewart is doubtless laughing into her carrot cake and iced yogurt, all the while sitting in front of the fireplace on her Oh So Delightfully Designed sofa.
Spitzer got her on an insider trading deal. Now, he got himself by paying hookers thousands per session for acts undisclosed. This payment for services, illicit, comes from a guy who was busting corruption, shady dealings, insider trading, etc, and on the strength of that reputation got elected governor of New York.
It's all over the news. The NYT was rather kind to him.
Pride goeth before a fall. Irony of ironies, the same IRS who helped him bust drug dealers and other criminals was able to take a look at his bank transactions, from them get a wire tap, and figuring out that he was paying for his hookers via electronic means, get him by the balls and squeeze.
I said it in 1985, when I stumbled across a place in Palma De Mallorca where one could rent a fair lady by the hour on Visa:
The world has gone mad.
Elliot, did you ever hear of cash and carry?
I am sure he'll have fun when his wife files for divorce. The way he humiliated her in a very public manner is standard fare, I suppose, in politics these days. Elliot is from a wealthy family, I suspect the sharks are beginning to circle. (Sharks = divorce lawyers.)
Hang on, she's a New York Democrat, female, one each, spouse of an executive branch head serving in government. She'll stay with him, like her hero Hillary.
Vote Obama: bring a better class of crook to Washington.:P
