Oh you kids! Those Democrats are just as bad as the Republicans.
So what is wrong with a Governor seeing high class prostitutes that cost up to $5,500.00 an hour?
Nothing so much really, unless you are Governor Spitzer of New York, who pledged to eradicate corruption in government. Oh, and if the prostitute was paid with taxpayer's money, or by lobbyists hoping for a favor... Then you are in trouble. You can bet your @$$ that Governor Spitzer didn't pay for the pretty woman out of his own pocket.
Well, back when James Madison was Secretary of State, government funds were used to hire a prostitute, on retainer, because the ambassador of one of the Barbary States insisted on being supplied with a concubine.
ReplyDeleteJeffrey - I'm quite sure it is still done all of the time... But one must follow the money to determine how serious this might be.
ReplyDeleteYou would think that a lawyer would be able to figure out a way to pay with untraceable cash or Walmart gift cards or something.

ReplyDeleteLOL!! I get the impression that these folks aren't exactly shopping at Walmart though! Maybe Cartier or Versace.
The old seven deadly sins are still applicable, right ;}
I'm glad you caught it, Swissie!
ReplyDeleteYeah, although I just read an article within the week saying that Gucci and other high end merchandisers are discounting their items in this country because of the value of the dollar falling.
Maybe it will have to be Wilson's Leather. I see they probably are having pretty good sales to avoid going bankrupt.
