N.Y. gov. a pimp (ethical, governor, New York, documents)

[GENO-777]

NEW YORK - Gov. Eliot Spitzer has told senior advisers that he had been involved in a prostitution ring, the New York Times reported Monday

So far there's no mention to the level of his involvement...

Did he fund or recieve funds from it?
Was he a John?

There so much potential sleeze for the papers, they'll be running the presses overtime tonight.

He just resigned!

[DasNootz]

It sounds like he was a John... and his name is mentioned in court documents.

I'm so proud!

[LaceyEx]

He was John #9. His arrogance and pomposity is appalling (I'm a former NY'er in the hinterland now). He was just indicted according to news.

Ordinarilly I would not completely condemn someone for this kind of thing. But someone who holds himself as an ethical figure...

[DasNootz]

Lets remember that there's nothing official yet... just rumors.


However, if true it does bode well for my theory that the people who preach about morals the loudest tend have the deepest closets.

[LaceyEx]

I agree-he held himself in different regard than he did others. They are now saying he's expected to resign-guess they jumped the gun.

It would be nice, if for once, NY governors offices were actually located in Albany where the job is as opposed to Manhattan.
