A brief commentary on your now…

Poor Eliot Spitzer! Disregarding all the poor choices he’s made, I have an element of sympathy for the former governor of New York. It’s kind of easy to pick out the humor amongst the scandal. The fact that he was such a fierce enforcer of ethics that he’s been coined many do-gooder nicknames is funny now because he likes to bang expensive prostitutes. The man has money. He spent over $80,000 of his own money on whores from a prestigious internet escort service. He didn’t use money laundered from the state or tax payers, no no, he used his own! Isn’t that something to be commended? I respect people with needs. Mr. Spitzer needed loving so bad he was willing to pay over $2,000 an hour for some. Poor, poor Eliot Spitzer didn’t know where to turn. After properly researching which vendor to use, he chose the top of the line which means that man has class, which I also respect. I wish he didn’t resign, I wish he fought for his job. Personal lifestyle choices should be kept separate from professional image.

Alas, I guess in today’s society, everything you do and wear and say adds to your reputation. Status and sourceablity are increasingly becoming the most important thing in this world. Eliot Spitzer’s is now tarnished forever, along with the rankings of men we all know and a couple that I’ve known in particular.
