$1000 an hour hookers are NEVER skanky.

*One* was! That's the point - Spitzer's hooker was outed and we saw her.
Yechhhh! He wasn't just a ****ty hypocrite, he also overpaid and had
lousy
taste in women.


Catch her at a really bad time? Or she can suck start a Harley...a
croquet ball through a half mile of garden hose....G

She has to have some kink she is good at that earns her that kind of
money.

That's actually correct and perceptive.

The laws of supply and demand don't go away, no matter how much and how many
wish it.

Still, not my cup of tea. Have a look:

You consider THAT a skank?????

tch tch tch....I take it you either like men, or have been poreing over
the airbrushed goddesses in Playboy.

Thats pretty good looking. Even by california standards.

Now I can understand if she isnt your "type" even if you did like girls,
different strokes for different folks as they say.

Your twisted world view makes you look buffoonish.

Hummm..you ARE a buffoon, mea culpa

Wow, Thunder. You sure come up with some relevant cites.

"indicted on state charges involving federal prisons in a South Texas
county that has been a source of bizarre legal and political battles..."

PS. Why the crossposting? I know you have better manners than that.

Oh, I thought he meant the State Government.
I don't know about La., but my home state is Il. and it was
pretty
crooked when the first Daly ran it from Chicago, and for a long
time
before that. I wonder if "getting caught" is all that separates
one state
from another that way?
I always hate OT but since I grew up in IL and went to undergrad in
LA (Tulane) I couldn't resist

IL (Actually Chicago) has ALWAYS been more corrupt than LA... since
the days of Cappone and then the first mayor Daly. They were
always just much smarter about not getting caught until the more
recent years. BTW.. the city (Chicago) always runs BETTER and more
efficiently with a corrupt mayor.

Also interesting fact (I use the word fact lightly) According to
the FBI only 48% of the murderers in the US ever serve time.... in
recent history 50% of the IL Gov's will serve time.. so... you are
more likely to go to prison if you are elected as Gov of IL than if
you committ MURDER!!!! :-)

I am glad I now live in South Florida... a beautiful little Banana
republic where we expect our politicians to be on the take.... Look
out NJ... we are coming up fast in the outer lane!!! you could be #4.
nail on head

True! I am so mortified that my proud home state of NJ is getting
eclipsed by places like Illinois.

We need a PR firm for our corruption. We need better and more
newsworthy corruption.

But how do you compete when your closest neighbor elects a governor
who made his name tracking down prostitution rings, then gets caught
in bed with a skanky $1000/hour hooker?
We have our work cut out for us, all right. The trouble is that our
corrupt politicians don't think big enough. We've become small-timers
in the bigger scheme of things. Our guys think that a new cabin
cruiser, season Jets tickets, and a couple of bimbos serving drinks in
the luxury suites at Yankee Stadium is living in corrupt luxury.

What we need is politicians who know what they can command in the
marketplace. Maybe we can get them some help from MLB players' agents.

Ed, I think you have come up with a new profession, a corruption and
take manager for politicans. The cover name for the office is political
expiditer. Politicians themselves seem to blow it when it comes to
being on the take.


John
I still think that hiring them from the ranks of MLB players' agents is
the way to go. If they can get $82.5 million for A.J. Burnett, they can
revolutionize New Jersey's political corruption.

Ed Huntress
I wouldn't bet my last dollar on Illinois or Lousiana being the "most

I dunno. I'm still cheering for NJ. But the FBI must have some basis for
making the judgment. We'll have to ask them.

I see no reason to trust any agency connected to the Bush Administration
Justice Department. Which is not to say I think Blago should remain in
office.
Do you see any good reason to cross post?
--

Salmonbait
I'm crosspost neutral. Once in a while, though, it does bring in a new
poster more interesting than, say, the pack of jackals.

How can you say you're 'crosspost neutral' if you do it? Or was that
supposed to be a joke?

It seems as though you try your hardest to insure you receive more than
your share of insults, derogatory comments, and anger from others. That
would tend to make your complaints somewhat meaningless, no?

Krause has 50 people here calling him an asshole. I would say that's
pretty conclusive, wouldn't you, John?

I refuse to be the fifty-first. Let someone else have that honor.

I'm just trying to help Harry out a little. He complains that he's picked
on and therefore can't stop the insults and name-calling. I think he has at
least the willpower I do.

What it means is that I don't care if crossposters show up or not. Some
of them have far more interesting things to say here than, say, the
jackals. It's not as if this is a newsgroup about boats.

If you find them more interesting, why do you not go to their groups and
join them. I'm sure you'd be more appreciated than you are here, and your
knowledge of politics would put you at the head of the pack (not to imply
that they are jackals...don't get me wrong).

Of course not. Simply because most of the corrupt politicians are

After all...Democrats are expected to be corrupt.

This is silly. Power corrupts.

Some. Seems to be a larger percentage of Republicans are corrupt,
however. And even the Republicans who are not corrupt wish to corrupt
the nation.
