Um, really?

[freebird5825]

Well....... no wonder you ladies feel confident about ER. If the market tanks for a decade or two after you retire, you could easily find part time work to replinish diminished portfolios. Us old geezers..... nobody would give us a nickle for anything.....

cleaning house? washing cars?

you be a brave man today...

LMAO

I watched her stand there with him and thought maybe he's already signed over 90% of the family assets to her and during the announcement his bags are being packed.

Is there a new Saturday Night Live this week? I can't wait to see their take on this. I want to see the wife in pearls holding an oversized pair of scissors.

I will stand by my man through all kinds of disasters/mistakes/troubles but he'd be all on his own for something like this.

Not sure what to think here. It's not often I've seen a democrat get busted and admit the mistake in such a short period of time. Maybe he needs to have a conversation with William "not sure why there's $90K in my freezer" Jefferson of LA.

Actually it's sad to see a family destroyed though refreshing to see him accept responsibility - life as he knew it is gone. Will be interesting to hear all the gory details beyond the the call girl thing - there appears to be much more to it.

 

[youbet]

WHAT was he thinking?

THINKING?

 

[Notmuchlonger]

I could probably guess what he was thinking..

 

[FinanceDude]

I just think it's nice to see a Republican accused of having improper relations with an adult member of the opposite sex for a change. <ducking>

Democrat, Tex...........

 

[FinanceDude]

ahhh.. I think guys are just jealous of Clinton because he didn't have to pay for it. .. Canoodling is one thing; paying to canoodle is kinda sad.

Yeah, I give Slick Willie props, he convinced some hotties over the years that he had it "goin' on"..........

Hotties?

I'm sorry, my biggest disappointment is that the leader of the free world couldn't manage to snare some better looking talent.

 

[lazygood4nothinbum]

Sex has nothing to do with it. The point is this guy was an overzealous poster child for doing the right thing, so it wouldn't have mattered if his illicit act was stealing a snickers bar.

your point, perhaps, which i understand. my point was that i don't agree that prostitution should be illegal. in my mind, the only thing this guy did wrong was fail to live up to a ridiculous standard.

 

[haha]

Apparently Rich Women Also Pay to Play

From this mornings WSJ

The Wealth Report - WSJ.com : How the New Rich Are Changing the Oldest Profession

There’s no mystery to why the rich visit escorts. But the secondary reasons are surprising.
According to a survey by Russ Alan Prince, president of Connecticut-based wealth-research firm Prince & Associates, in his book “The Sky’s The Limit,” a sizable percentage of the super wealthy use escorts. He surveyed 661 people who owned private jets. It found that 34% of males and 20% of females had paid for sex.
The most popular reason was “unique experiences” (71%), followed by “higher quality experiences” (57%).

Sorry if this sounds naive but what could be so unique that you have to pay $5,000 for it .

Haven't been myself since Roy Schieder died

Uh, tainted beef?

Whether it's a hooker or your wife, you're always paying for it -- you married fellas know what I'm talking about

Wanted to be known as the Charlie Sheen of politics

Hotties?

Exactly. JFK allegedly had tyrsts with Marilyn Monroe, Angie Dickenson and a long affair with this beauty Judith Campbell Exner

Considering how elegant and classy Jackie O was I think he still showed really bad judgement, but I could understand.

Bill Clinton and Monica I don't get it.


For the money Spitzer spent, and considering that is Silda Spitzer is smart (Harvard Law and high powered lawyer in her own right) and good looking, the hooker better look like a supermodel.

 

[freebird5825]

that was a lead in..and you missed it. 2 demerits!

a hint - there is not enough blood in the body to operate two major organs at the same time. we'll coin a new phrase -the "Spitzer Effect"

Name the organs...

 

[Arc]

Adultery = ridiculous standard? I have to say you lost me there.

 

[freebird5825]

Calling Marquette, calling Marquette

Marquette - would you please grace us with one of your senryū creations ?

As a native New Yorker, I'd be very honored if you would dedicate it to Governor Elliot Spitzer.

While I agree with you that prositiution should be legal, he did wrong (1) committing adultery, and (2) committing a crime which as Attorney General he had prosecuted others for.

First, two one-liners... not original and I'm sure they've already been done, but it came to me while I was washing the dishes...


-------------

You can't be too tough on Spitzer. After all, one of his promises was that he was going to get hard on crime.

-------------

The prostitute came forward today and made a plea for Spitzer. She said to be lenient with him because he's already done lots of hard time

Limerick:

There once was a governor from albany
Who liked to pay women to watch them pee
But then he got busted
The public disgusted
Now he's left with just Internet pornography

Limerick:

This is the tale of Elliot Spitz
A straight-shooting man who knew how to blitz
He went one hooker to far
Got caught in his car
His only hope is that the prosecution acquits
