Huh?I never demanded that any of these guys including Larry Craig resign.

Do try to keep up.

Breaking: Spitzer to resign at 11 am.

I was hoping he would fight but as I pointed out earlier, at 30% approval before this, I thought this might be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

ANYONE who supports this kind of behavior from elected officials or makes excuses for this behavior, is just a mirror image of Spitzer, a hypocitical scumbag.

Look in the mirror.

Still waiting for woiyo to link his demand for the resignation of David Vitter or his admission that he made no such demand and I am willing to wait until hell freezes over for his answer.

BTW I never condoned or supported Spitzer's conduct. As I have pointed out he is apparently guilty of a Class B Misdemeanor. (roughly the same as Larry Craig) The Mann Act and Money Laundering are bullshit prosecutions and would never stick in a million years against a client with a dream defense team. But it would cost him some serious change, a lot more than 80k.

Spitzer made a deal and agreed to resign.

If STFU means what I think it means, then you have once again proven that you cannot win the "battle of ideas" especially on this Spitzer issue, without resorting to an attempt to silence an opposing point of view.

You have lost the argument and please feel free to chirp on with meaningless comparisons.

Just for your information, Vitter makes laws, Spitzer enforced them. Spitzer is the hypocrite. Vitter should have resigned 7 years ago when he engaged in illegal activity. But what is your point? You surely must support Vitter also.

Coulters point is irrelevant.

Spitzer did the right thing and resigned in disgrace.

The Entrapment of Eliot
By ALAN M. DERSHOWITZ
March 13, 2008

The federal criminal investigation that has led to Eliot Spitzer's resignation as governor of New York illustrates the great dangers all Americans face from vague and open-ended sex and money-transaction statutes.

Federal law, if read broadly, criminalizes virtually all sexual encounters for which something of value has been given. Federal money-laundering statutes criminalize many entirely legitimate and conventional banking transactions. Congress enacted these laws to give federal prosecutors wide discretion in deciding which "bad guys" to go after.

Generally, wise and intelligent prosecutors use their discretion properly -- to target organized crime, terrorism, financial predation, exploitation of children and the like. But the very existence of these selectively enforced statutes poses grave dangers of abuse. They lie around like loaded guns waiting to be used against the enemies of politically motivated investigators, prosecutors and politicians.

One would think those who claim to be Libertarians would have something to say about this investigation but I guess not. They only howl when the likes of Rush Limbaugh are up against the police state.

Not in one lump sum. (OTOH she wasn't offered it in one lump sum either)

Spitzer should have raped the girl instead of paying her... he could have used the Bill Clinton defense and stayed in office.

You never answered my question. The fact is that you NEVER posted one time here asking for Vitter's resignation nor did you even object to his conduct. That makes you a hypocrite.

Vitter's involvement with prostitutes came tolight last year, not seven years ago. Vitter was given a standing ovation by the Republicans when he returned to the Senate. You and your ilk are the worst kinds of hypocrites. It has been proven time and time again.

Novak: Republican Operative Tipped Spitzer Investigation?

Intrigue: Novak suggests GOP operative behind Spitzer fall

Was a political operative behind the fall of New York Governor Eliot Spitzer?

That's the suggestion in a Sunday column by conservative columnist Robert Novak. A Republican operative, he's found, predicted the governor's fall specifically -- several months in advance.

"Republican political operative Roger Stone, Eliot Spitzer's longtime antagonist, predicted his political demise more than three months in advance," Novak writes. "Spitzer's entrapment by federal authorities investigating a prostitution ring raised speculation that Stone, with a 40-year record as a political hit man, somehow was behind it."

"Eliot Spitzer will not serve out his term as governor of the state of New York,'' Stone said Dec. 6 on Michael Smerconish's radio talk show," Novak added. "He gave no details."

Novak's post was titled "GOP strategists at work."

In an interview last week, Stone cheered the governor's demise, and hinted further that he'd known about the governor's fall.

"I didn't make him go to a prostitution ring," Stone told a Newsday columnist Mar 12. "He did that all on his own."

Asked whether he had a hand in Spitzer's woes, Stone said, "No comment."

"I will say I knew it was coming," he added. "That's why I wasn't too upset about the results of the special election," where a Democrat won control of a formerly Republican seat in the State Senate, where the Republicans have a one-vote margin.

Speaking of the scandal Stone added cryptically: "My work isn't done there. Just watch."

Stone now runs an anti-Clinton political 527 group, Citizens United Not Timid, the acronym of which has sparked fury among liberal groups.

Sounds like a pretty good description of Elliot Spitzer, kind of like NY State's own version of Mike Nifong. Friends from NY tell me this guy had no friends, and lots of people with reason to pounce him should the opportunity ever present itself, and it did...
