    no you didnt answer it. I asked what should have dominated the news the week he was exposed?

    you gave no answer, you said omg...

    and secondly, spitzer was the governer of NY. he was one of the most recognizable figures in the crime fighting world for years.

    but somehow you don't think his downfall should be headline news....in America?

    Oooo...sex scandal...stop the presses.. stop the world

    encore encore...

    My advice is start filtering your drinking water or switch to bottled at the very least.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    are you crazy or what...no but seriously.

    You actually need an answer to an excruciatingly obvious question, then make insinuating claims on top of that?

    ok...

    where did your common sense wander off to?

    The war, what's really going on with economy, all shit going on in Africa and China, the truth on the federal reserve scenario, you know real stories instead of one sleazy politician banging some overpriced slut.

    but anyhow,...

    why the petty high school insults?

    the war??? the war hasnt been reported on much because there isnt overwhelming bad news like there used to be. good news doesnt make the headlines.

    the economy is headline news, everyday. its shoved down our throats day in and day out.

    its quite clear you dont get it, but this isnt just "one sleazy politician". he was governer of NY. and was the biggest crime fighting attorney since guliani. he deserved to be made an example of...even more so then what was reported.

    that is going to trump news of the happenings in africa and china anyday.

    He slept with someone...honestly....big deal. We get sanitized fast food stories on the economy etc not actual accounts. This is the part you don't get. One level deeper than how you're thinking lies the reality.

    The reason it's a big deal is that it is illegal.
    And he based his career on prosecuting people for the EXACT SAME THING.
    And he used state funds to do it.

    I'm not surprised this was front-page news for a week. You can only run so many "Iraq War Still Going On" headlines in a row.

    I think if you lined up all the officials that slept with call girls and printed stories for each t it would be an entire weekly section in the newspaper.

    Lots worse hypocrisy going on you know...

    Man, why didn't O.J. use that defense?

    "Yeah, I killed her. So what? Other people kill people, too."

    Besides, you seem to be glossing over the part about Spitzer basing his whole career on busting up prostitution rings. That adds to the newsworthiness of it all.

    Hey, you want to go bang a transvestite hooker (and you know you do), go right ahead. Just don't be all high and mighty about other people doing it.

    I have no problem with him fucking a hooker. unfortunately, its illegal. and he threw alot of people in jail for doing exactly that.

    its getting kinda fun pwning you. but yes, lets take this to a deeper level.

    you have the economy all figured out do ya? I'm on the edge of my seat to hear this one.

    Well he beat out Britney that's for sure...

    Maybe he can go take wide stance lessons from Larry Craig sometime.

    On a good day, the US media is one clown shy of a three ring circus...

    the story was underplayed if anything. spitzer was the poster boy for fighting white collar crime. he fought hard to bust prostitution rings. this could be the most hypocritically man ever to hold public office.
    ...and he was caught by the very same measures that he had put in place to capture the big dollar johns of these rings. He got caught in his own trap. :eek:

    Did his trap include wiretapping and domestic spying? I don't know so this is a serious question.
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    I believe that it did include wiretapping after certain irregular movements of money were noted in his bank accounts. So, yes, I guess that would probably classify as domestic spying. This type of operation was his baby in regards to its use against the big call girl rings and their big $$ johns.
