Spitzer did not resign. Sounds like he's going into rehab. Whew! |
|
That always fixes everthing.

10. Maybe he's claiming he's a sex addict |
|
And all that contact with prostitutes while he was cleaning up the state was like having an alcoholic in charge of the bar--he couldn't help himself.

4. They tried to make me go to rehab . . . but I said, "Oh hell yes, |
|
will this save my career?"
Different lyrics.

He's taking the right wing deodorant of rehab instead of stepping down! He's throwing that sort of hypocrisy right back at them.
I hope he takes the opportunity to regroup and comes out slugging at the thieves and hypocrites who worked so tirelessly to disgrace him.

6. going into rehab for what? an addiction to breaking the law? |
|
I didn't know that rehab was the penalty for doing something illegal. But then, I'm not a former attorney general.
(I strongly believe that prostitution should be legal, but that's beside the point. If you're the governor, and you break the law in such a spectacular and idiotic way, you resign. :eyes:)

7. I actually hope that the American people will ignore this. They |
|
seem to ignore it with most others after the disgust of the treatment of BC and his affair with Monica. I must say though that Elliott and BC were flat out STUPID! If your job & reputation means anything to you at all, damn it, keep your damn pants on!

12. When someone in this sort of position says |
|
"I need to take some time..." it usually means that they are going to try the sympathy card by checking into rehab.

They are merely working out the logistics of his resignation according to CBS.

20. They may have to drag Spitzer off the stage. Maybe he'll take Hillary with him. |
