Spitzer's Defenders.........LMAO ! ! ! :o :o :o
The loony GetBig Liberals who are on here trying to defend Spitzer, what a joke !
Just one problem though, It wasn't too long ago, that Spitzer was taking down prostitution rings and saying "the johns are just as guilty" for the television cameras and the cable news shows. Seems like it was against the law then ! ! !
And do you Libs honestly think Spitzer would not have gone after any Republican that would have been doing the same thing ?
Remember Spitzer's dirty tricks of having State Police track Republican Sen. Bruno ?

Now, for some reason, the whole subject is just the result of American prudery and provincialism, at least according to Alan Dershowitz of Harvard University.
The left is such a joke. There's no dummy as dumb as a dummy who thinks he's brilliant. The Democrat party is led by people like that.
-
settle down, my muslim friend.
we're all happy to see a hypocrite like spitzer fall apart like this. some people feel prostitution is a victimless crime and wastes resources that could be used to keep crack off playgrounds, sure. But spitzer broke other laws too, and he's dealing with the deserved shitstorm now.
-
as usual, little 240 doesn't get it ::)
Hint 240, It is called hypocrisy ! ! ! !
If it is not a big deal ( Prostitution ) then why did Spitzer take down prostitution rings, and then say on Television "the johns are just as guilty" for the television cameras and the cable news shows. Seems like it was against the law then ! ! !
And at that time, I don't remember any Liberals on GetBig saying it was wrong , and complaing about the waisted resources !

Did you even read 240's response?
-
Hint 240, It is called hypocrisy ! ! ! !
I used the word 'hypocrite' which is someone who engages in hypocracy. I think we're on the same page here?
Compared with other crimes, high-end prostitution rings aren't a huge drain on society's moral fabric. not like drugs and gang violence, which loses resources so they can spend years tracking horny married guys overpaying for mediocre 22 year old tail.
Spitzer took down rings because he's a hypocrite, sure. And his career is over because of it.
-
Exactly who is trying to defend spitzer?
Are we so desperate that we must make stupid accusations or is there evidence of a person on this board trying to defend him?
-
Eldon,
can you please quote some of "The loony GetBig Liberals" who have been defending Spitzer?
-
sure 240,
"Enough of this Puritan hypocrisy. Everyone's fucking around, and some people are getting unduly penalized for it". -Calmus
http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=205610.0
Back when Spitzer was bringing down Prostitution rings, and saying "the johns are just as guilty",
nobody on here complained then, or said "the States need to legalize Prostitution"
-
I'm sure Calmus will be eager to elaborate on his statement.
-
Back when Spitzer was bringing down Prostitution rings, nobody on here complained then, or said "the States need to legalize Prostitution"
Arguably that's one. But then again, I don't think the question about the legalization of prostitution was a hot topic here year 'round.
-
sure 240,

You are correct. Defending this corrupt fool by calling for the legalization of prostitution because "everyone" is doing it? Absurd.
I heard that some of the funds he used were from his daughters' college fund (yes I know they are wealthy).
-
Arguably that's one. But then again, I don't think the question about the legalization of prostitution was a hot topic here year 'round.
Thank you, you made my point, It only became hot when one of the Liberal's hero's fell , because of it being a law. and now all of the sudden, you have liberals saying it should not be a law, or that their were political motives behind it.
But they had no problem with the law before hand, and would not have had a problem with the law, it if would have been a Republican that would have been caught !
Hypocrisy !
-
Who's defending him? I haven't postd or seen any posts defending his recent actions
-

oh brother ::) We all get the hypocrisy and I feel an suspect 240 probably does too that this does make him a hypocryte and he needs to pay the price for that as it looks like he is. I doubt anyone has posted info otherwise ::) The only thing I did was to say that there might be other unknowns in play, this being politics. Nobody is defending his actions... There's a big diff.

-
Whoa, I don't see him defending Spitzer. Look, this is the kind of thing that Spitzer would have went after others for and he himself engaged in activity he would have gone after others for. I don't think you're going to find Calmus disagree with the fact that a hypocrite like this, should pay the price. He made a statement about prostitution that was probably brought to mind with this. I doubt Calmus is defending Spitzer's hypocrisy in the current status quo. You might have clarified with him before launching this silly, "all the libs on getbig" rant ::)

I think most people agree with George Carlin: Selling and fucking are legal. Why isn't selling fucking legal?
You're making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Can you honestly say that if it would have been a Republican caught, that you would be on here saying it should be legalized ?

Name three Spitzer defenders...?

this should be funny ;D

the States need to legalize Prostitution
Enough of this Puritan hypocrisy. Everyone's fucking around, and some people are getting unduly penalized for it.
Fully agree, however, it will never happen. The world's biggest consumer and producer of pornography is quite hypocritical on issues of sex and morality.
Prostitution is a States Rights issue. It's legal in Nevada.
I think most people agree with George Carlin: Selling and fucking are legal. Why isn't selling fucking legal?
You're making a mountain out of a mole hill.
I actually think there should be some level of legalized prostitution,
So are treason, lying to congress & the people, war-profiteering, subversive attempts to dismantle & destroy the constitution, and complete dereliction of duty, ...far more serious illegal and impeachable offenses, ...with far graver consequences for more IMO, but we've largely seen these ignored. To suspect a pattern of more of the same is hardly unrealistic. What's unrealistic IMO is anyone thinking a politician goes down for his crimes. The reality is, his crimes are discovered, and if not concealed, certainly ignored, until such time that his enemies decide to expediantly dispose of him. That's real!
-
Are you kidding? I used the George Carlin line weeks ago before the Spitzer deal. Nowhere do I defend Spitzer. And nowhere do I call for the legalization of prostitution. Pointing out the common sensical approach of George Carlin is just plain funny.
Mountain out of a Mole hill.
How do you live with the injustice of these liberals?
-
You said the issue was hypocrisy, told 240 he didn't get it. Nothing you just posted defends Spitzer's hypocrisy. Looks like you don't get it, we do!
-
Eldon, to prove hypocracy, you'd have to find Clamus quotes where he first attacked a Republican for prostitution, then defended this Dem for it.
Can you find that quote?
-

So you admit you're a liberal?
-
So you admit you're a liberal?
Fuck no, you clinton voter.
I'm happy when a hypocrite from either party gets caught banging hookers and is forced to resign.
Crap like that doesn't belong in leadership, no matter what party.

He can't find shit. Only crap that he feebly tries to twist around.
Eldon, you can find better stuff on libs than this.
-
So you admit you're a liberal?
to be honest, don't you think he strikes you more as an independent thinker. I see him on here defending a spectrum of stances. The problem is, once you've sided whatsoever with one single liberal opinion and departed from a solid hardcore righwing only stance, rightwingers are happy to throw that person to the wolves. On the other hand, someone who is liberal like myself can get away with the occational rightwing stance on something because it's in our nature to be open minded in all opinions. Again, if we're being fair here, I think one would say 240 seems to have moved into an independent line of thought. I'm guessing from what he has said, you might find him voting either way, depending on the candidate.
-
So you admit you're a liberal?
Well duh. He is liberal as the day is long.
-
Well duh. He is liberal as the day is long.
I make my case stated above. If you're not hardline, they'll toss you to the wolves. Must be a paranoid world behind the iron curtain of rightwingers...
-
Coach believes that anyone who questions the white house in any way is a lib.
Coach believes that all moderate repubs and dems are libs.
Coach believes if you have any questions on WMD or 911, you're a lib.
Karl Rove bragged of his ability to divide voters using this simple term. The right-wing radio hosts use the word like hitler used 'jew'... a blanket term thrown at any enemy. Remember Romney and Mccain calling each other liberals in the primaries? Same thing. The most hateful word they know.
I don't fault Joe, because I used to do the same thing. I blindly repeated white housee press line and if you disagreed, you were a piece of crap lib. Now, I see I wasn't thinking - I was just doing what my training told me to do. One day, and he may never admit it, Joe will realize the far right neocons aren't always correct or honest.

yes it does, it was in relation to my comment above your post and as I said, your post made my case. With your statement you do exactly what Joe did and what every other rightwinger does when someone even dares cross over on even a single point. My post was spot on, sorry it when by you.

240, put down the weed ::)
My original point to you about hypocrisy was in reference to Spitzer.
He is a hypocrite, even you said this in your first reply to me on here.
And for a liberals to come on here saying prostitution should be legal, on the very next day after Spitzer resigns from office, is being a hypocrite

OK, I'll bite. Maybe liberals, like myself, have held that belief prior to Spitzer's deal. So what? A dumb law is a dumb law. His job description forced him to uphold the law even though in his private life he broke that same law. Yeah that's hypocrisy on his part. How does that make me a hypocrite?

Even though many politicians think they are, nobody is above the law, Nobody !
Prosecuting people for breaking the very same law he was breaking is one thing, but going on Television, bragging about it all, is hypocrisy at its finest.

No it's fucking not ::) especially when after you've put your your stupid challenge out we affirmed out condemnation of his actions, WHAT FUCKING MORE DO YOU WANT ::) Look buck rogers, it happens all the time, when something happens in public that surrounds other issues, it often happens that people will also bring up that goddamned issue, that's nothing new. The only thing that's new is your making accusations of the issue being brought up. You're calling Calmus guilty by the shear association of bringing up the issue. WTF man, that's stupid as you appear to be. I for one would have no problem defending Spitzer if I felt he deserved it. It's freaking retarded of you to tell us we're finding some side way of supporting Spitzer's actions.... RETARDED!!!

shit, if you take a girl out and want to get laid. you know your going to have take her out to dinner and everything, which by the end of the night will cost a hundred bucks or two.
then if she fucks you, hows she not a prostitute? hows that not paying for sex?

Yes, you melted down, just look out your last comment :o Many times when a liberal melts, they start in with the name calling. :o
I have responded to every post on here, go back read.
You change your name to " Hugo Chavez " and yet you call me a "clown", and then later "retarded " ?
LMAO ! ! ! !

I don't know what politicians think unless they tell me what they are thinking. Spitzer acted contrite and I hardly think he was bragging. While I don't condone what he did, I do see the shortcomings in criminalizing prostitution. We are all hypocrites in life--part of some its dialectical progression--but I don't see myself being a hypocrite on this matter. Spitzer, yeah, sure he was. That's apparent.

Decker,
The bragging comment was in reference to him going on television back when he was A.G. when he went on t.V bragging about all of the prosecutions on Prostitution rings, and he made the comment " "the johns are just as guilty"" and will be gone after as well.

I think you need to go back and read, and if you think me saying retarded is a meltdown, you've never seen me meltdown ;D Oh you'll know when I do and everyone here who's not a noob like you can attest, this ain't one of my meltdowns ;) In this case, it's clear you posted "meltdown" to avoid my points and evade them by going down this path, clearly!

No meltdown from Hugo here.
That's his standard way when he's passionate about something.

I didn't see those statements b/c at the time they were made, I didn't care. I don't think that makes him more of a hypocrite than he already is.
I am not getting the same satisfaction of his demise that you are. I thought he was doing the people's work in many respects. I don't relish watching that kind of effort go down the drain.
We have enough worthless politicians--yes-men and toadies--already We don't need to lose a guy doing a hell of a job in my opinion.

You melt down worse than a Liberal, more like a child. How old are you ?
"noob" ? nice try, but.....and I have been posting on GetBig long before you ever posted on here, at least under the name Berserker.
When I first stated posting on here, the only ones posting under the general section were MellonWheels, Avenging Eagle, Jdogg, AllDoggitty, and a few others.

Decker,
My view of him is he is an arrogant, self centered, typical politician that lets all the power go to their head, and start believing they are above the law.
The only thing that he tired to do as Governor, was trying to get Drivers License for illegals, even though the majority of NewYorkers were against it.
-

yea, that would be a pretty weak meltdown by my standards :)

ok baby hugo, besides seeing on your name calling in the above statement, what points did I ignore ?
I already answered everything you asked earlier in this thread, go back and reread
I said to 240 that Spitzer is a hypocrite,
I said that it is hypocritical for people like clamus to come on here saying that prostitution should not be illegal, the day after a prominent Democrat resigned, and that is it would have been a republican, Clamus and other liberals would not be on here saying this.
I have answered every question on here in relation to this.

The only thing that he tired to do as Governor, was trying to get Drivers License for illegals, even though the majority of NewYorkers were against it.
If I were to guess, I would say he did not think he was above the law. And here's why, if he did entertain such thoughts, he would still be in office. Why? B/c he had the impression that he was above the law...Like with President Bush. He's knowingly committed a felony with his FISA violation and his justification: The law doesn't apply to me in a time of war. Bush is still in office.
Of course Spitzer's arrogant. He's a politician. A certain amount of ego is prerequisite to embark on a career as a leader of men.
Despite being on the job only a few months as governor of NY, he had these accomplisments to point to:
He doubled charter school choices across NY,
He brought healthcare coverage to 400,000 children,
He created a billion dollars in Medicaid savings without cutting benefits,
He helped secure a $600 million dollar downpayment for stemcell research.
He dropped the drivers license plan last year. http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN1363693520071114?feedType=RSS&feedName=topNews&rpc=22&sp=true

oh brother, let me make this easy for you eldon... Do you deny that when an event happens with controversial subjects involved often those topics spin off of the event and enter the public discourse with temporary renewed interest? If you do not deny this truth, you have no case and well, sorry, you have no case. ;)

either he's got an awesome place or I think he's fibbing a bit:
2006: Westchester County, north of New York City, ranked No. 1 with $7,337 in median property taxes paid. No. 2 was Nassau County on Long Island, with $7,025. But no doubt, he's probably paying to much.
-
looks like median for the high end places for 2007 was close to 8000.00 I guess that places most in the upper range around 16,000 so KH either has a corruption/mafia problem, is lying, or has a 2 bedroom mansion with a 42 car garage :D

yea but they listed the highest counties in the nation were I looked for the 2006. Those were the highest median prices out of the whole US. Come on dude, you pay 25,000 for a 2 bedroom... no way man.

That's what I thought. That's a little less than 5 times what I pay on my humble home...and I have a double lot and I built my house in 2003.

DHS is really on top of it ;D

dude, if your 2 bedroom condo is in the median of the highest taxed from 2006, that means your property taxes shot up like 300%... I have my doubts here.

hahaha. I met my wife when I was 20 and I've been paying for it since. That didn't sound right.
lol. Wives are expensive mang. I could survive in a studio big enough for my weights and my big screen TV. But when you're married you have to do the whole "house" thing.
