Is Rick Ellensburg Spitzer's Number One Whore?

My, what a scathing indictment of Senator David Vitter from the Blogosphere's most infamous sock puppet Rick Ellensburg (aka Glenn Geenwald) when Vitter's name turned up linked to a prostitute.

Maybe Vitter should have made things right - and changed his political affiliation before getting caught. Classic liberal hypocrisy watch below.

As NY's chief executive, at the very least, Spitzer opened himself up to black mail with far more significant potential implications for an executive, as opposed to any legislator with but one of many votes. Personally, I wouldn't excuse either individual given the state of current law. But as with any true whore, with Greenwald it all comes down to what positions you prefer - once established, everything is negotiable from there.

Who cares if Eliot Spitzer hires prostitutes?

» Surprise! Left Wing Bloggers Hypocritical on Vitter, Spitzer; Glenn Greenwald Castigates David Vitter, But Cobloggers Rick Ellensberg and Thomas Ellers Excuse Spitzer from Ace of Spades HQ
True enough, I guess I have disagreements with my own cobloggers. But on something like this, I really think that Glenn Greenwald, Rick Ellensberg, and Thomas Ellers should synthesize their positions so their joint blog isn't so hopelessly schizophreni... [Read More]

The thing is prostitution isn't consensual sex it's contractual; prostitutes aren't hired to have sex, they're hired to shut up and take whatever the buyer wants.

Not to mention the misuse of state resources and funds - it's one thing to boink whatever it is that gets you off on your own time and dime - it's another when you have a stae police escort to and from.

As abhorrent as I find prostitution, I can't help but wonder what the fuss is all about over Vitter or Spitzer.

Firing a politician for prostitution is like firing a janitor for covering up other people's messes. It's basically just a blunt way of describing the job.

Is Mrs. Spitzer a likely running mate for Hillary now ?

Poking around the Blogosphere, I found out a few things about Karl Rove you may wish you hadn't known. Caution - my research starts with Susie Bright. And no, that ain't a cheap by the way. It speaks to the man's historical sense of target selection. Anyway, you might not wish me pointing you to a boing-boing article titled... well, I probably shouldn't tell you the title. It's literally Not Safe For Work. At least, not anyplace Adolf Coors runs.

But on the other hand, you get to see the two best t-shirts speaking to this issue currently available on Zazzle.

And yes, according to Reuters, the fact that this issue hit t-shirts almost as fast as it hit the blogs is, in fact, news.

I find that depressing. But being a Libertarian, that doesn't stop me from cashin' in!
