Typical government overspending

OK, I suppose I need to take an afternoon off of work and actually make a blog post about Eliot Spitzer.

All I can say is...

What kind of idiot spends $5,000 an hour on a hooker?  What, didn't he shop around for a better deal first?  I mean, what the hell?  I just spent 2 minutes doing a basic Google search and concluded that a tenth that price seems to get you the finest call girls of the web.  Typical liberal politician: just throw money out the window without even checking first to see if there is a more cost-effective method.

No wonder New York State under Spitzer is billions of dollars in the red.

That's all I have to say about that.

For now.

For five grand an hour... sheesh...

I admit it, I went to the NY Post and read about the woman and saw her pictures and, honestly, can't see why anyone would want to pay even a tenth that. Not the best looking woman. A weird tattoo on her hand. You'd think for that sort of money you'd at least be meeting "classy" courtesans, like what you see for instance in the super-villain's hideout in Bond movies - foreign, beautiful, educated, etc.

Not trash.

Google this "foreign beautiful educated" along with "Call Girl" and see what comes up...

:-)

I imagine it will read more like a singles ad.

Hey Gully,

That's great ammo against the dems about NY being in debt -- what's your source?

Five grand isn't so bad for government procurement. Give the Pentagon five grand and all they come up with is a toilet seat or a screwdriver.....

Government is the worst place to have money saved into. Look what has happened to our Social Security Account. Every year since the time of Regan eras, social security account has been decreasing. Regan, Bush, Bill Clinton and now G.H.Bush has taken out most or all of what was left in the Social Security account and he is telling us that we have to save what we are making now in to saving account or invest it in to stock market. Is that what we wanted or expected from our own government? This is outright wrong. Now, we are left to suffer and pick up the bills. This is disgusting.
