News out of my home state of New York as governor Eliot Spitzer has admitted to having been involved with a prostitution ring as a client. What a wonderful dose of irony as a man known for fighting corruption in NY gets busted for hanging with some ho's.
I like Spitzer's approach though. He's not trying to avoid it or keep it under wraps, but rather is being a man and stepping forward with his transgressions. On the other hand it kind of takes the fun out of the whole thing. There's no "bitch set me up moment" like with DC's own Marion Barry.
It will be interesting to see if Spitzer can keep his job and if the whole thing will blow over. Kwame Kilpatrick, the mayor of Detroit, isn't letting his sex scandal get him down and the Minnesota Vikings still have a team after their "Sex Boat Scandal", so there's hope for him. Maybe the next time he's in DC (where this redezvous took place) he could meet with Councilman Barry, who served 6 months in prison for getting caught smoking crack cocaine, and then was reelected mayor, then got three years probation for failing a drug test, and is currently a DC councilman. That man is bullet proof.
According to the Wall Street Journal his brother, Daniel Spitzer, a neurosurgeon, said: "If men never succumbed to the attractions of women, then the human species would have died out a long time ago." Way to put it in perspective. In a similar vein, 3LW was quoted as saying "Playas, they gon play".

Enjoy sir.
3LW is not quoted nearly enough in current events discussions. Perhaps they were ahead of their time. Thanks for reminding me.
