Has any disgraced politician ever gone away gracefully? Newt Gingrich keeps popping up, Dick Cheny won't go away. Senator "Diapers" Vitter wouldn't een quit the Senate. At least Spitzer had good taste in hookers.
If Bush and Cheney aren't disgraced then no one is. As for Gingrich he cheated on his wife while criticizing Clinton for doing the same thing. That would be his second wife who he met while cheating on his first wife. I don't think Spitzer used state money for his hookers but I'm not here to defend Spitzer. I don't remember the Supreme Court boycotting Clinton's speech (really, even the liberals?) but if you say so. As for Kennedy and Chappaquidick the car went off the bridge. Ted could have died himself. Was he drunk? Was he cheating? I don't know and neither do you. (Although he is a Kennedy.)
Yes, I did go to the University of Idiots (San Jose State).
How can you compare Bush and Cheney to anyone else? You don't like the way they ran the country?.....OK. I have no problem with that. I don't like the way Carter ran the country but i don't compare him to Clinton or Kennedy.
Look it up. Even the libs boycotted. Unlike yourself, they showed some courage.
Yes I DO know Kennedy was drunk. I also know that he didn't call the police or an ambulance. He called HIS LAWYER! Why was a married man leaving a party with a young girl in the middle of the night heading away from both of their homes? Do the math yourself.
You don't know what Newt did or didn't do or when he did it. The problem with Clinton is that he was in THE WHITE HOUSE and HE LIED UNDER OATH. He was IMPEACHED!
Finally, i don't remember all of the details with spitzer but he was forced to resign in disgrace. Shouldn't he just stay there? It's not like he doesn't have his daddy's millions to fall back on. The silver spoon is still there for him.
Banging a hooker was the least of Spitzers crime. He was a crook and a shakedown artist.
Hes trying to rehabilitate his image as the guy that "told us so" bout Wall St? Fuck that. Name one reform he enacted as the Sheriff of Wall St? There are none, he blackmailed firms with bad pr, they paid up and his law firm donors got rich, then he moved on to the nect victim. Fuck that guy.
... I love Newt, but he did do the dirty to his 2nd wife as he was going after Clinton. Im a believer in the glass houses thing.
Well,even if it's true. He didn't lie about it under oath. He didn't call a press conference to lie about it and then bomb a country to distract the world from it. He didn't try to destroy the people who ratted him out. Clinton did all that and more. I just don't see how they compare.
I did google the Supreme Court thing and it's true that no Supremes showed up, although some of them made excuses that may have been true in some cases, at least the liberals. Bush and Cheney disgraced this country with torture, secret prisons, limiting Habeus Corpus and Posse Commitatus, and leaving the country in the state they left it in. Torture, by the way, is illegal.
Clinton lied under oath about sex and therefore could have been, and was impeached, although I don't think he should have been. Bush and Cheney could have been impeached for torture and illegal wiretaps if the Congress had been so inclined. Reagan could have been impeached for Iran/Contra. But the only one who got impeached was the guy who got the blow job.
I agree with you that Spitzer should go away. So should Senator Vitter.
Clinton lied about EVERYTHING. He just got caught on the blowjob thing. Which I never agreed with as I am of the notion that The President deserves one a day and if the wife aint willing.... heck then name Scarlet Johansen or Jennifer Connoly to a Cabinet position.
"Bush and Cheney could have been impeached for torture and illegal wiretaps"
Grow up Gary. Trust me, torture will continue under Obama. Im sure someone is being slapped around right now as I type. Theyll just change the name of it to Happy Happy Joy Time or some ridiculous shit. Same goes for the wiretaps. You so concerned about the WH going after private citizens, keep an eye out for the kid that tried to shakedown Bidens daughter.... hes fucked.
... speaking of waterboarding, how fucked up is it that Teddy Kennedys dog is named Splash?
"Oh, and Clinton was a much better President than Bush and if you don't think so then you're wrong."
For what it's worth by the way, i agree with gary that the pres.shouldn't have been impeached and actually shouldn't have been investigated for the lewinsky thing. I said so at the time and i say so now. He should have been impeached for bombing a country to distract us from it however....
What Clinton and Gore should have been impeached fot (and what they were under investigation for before Reno used the Lewinsky smoke screen) was selling our military secrets and technology to the Chinese for a wing in his library.

Gary you need to get a job.
Gingrich? Disgraced because you disagree with him?
Cheney? Disgraced because you disagree with him?
How does that differ from Spitzer? Ummm forced to resign because he frequented high priced hookers and used state money to pay for them.
Clinton - lied under oath and was impeached. Had the ENTIRE SUPREME COURT BOYCOTT HIS STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS.
Kennedy- KILLED SOMEONE DRIVING DRUNK WHILE CHEATING ON HIS WIFE!!
Where did you go to school anyway? The university of idiots?
"The university of idiots?"

Every last one of them. Yes even Ruth.
Kind of a big deal, you follow politics at all? Or just copy and paste Daily Kos?

Whats next?... the rubber glue rebuttal.
If torture continues under Obama I will still oppose it.
As for rubber glue, you should really stop sniffing it.
"Banging a hooker was the least of Spitzers crime. He was a crook and a shakedown artist."
i agree with the donkey on this one.
for what it's worth.

It means you win Anita. You win.
what do i win?
Would it shock you if I said drinks?
Or we could just order room service.
Dude stop hittin on my girl.

I was talking to Anita. Gary is all yours.
What Clinton and Gore should have been impeached fot (and what they were under investigation for before Reno used the Lewinsky smoke screen) was selling our military secrets and technology to the Chinese for a wing in his library.
i was thinking more in terms of the green stuff, you know, cashmoney.
I'm cool with role play....
So Ill be Client 9 and you'll be Kristen?
Or we can get real kinky and I could be Mayor Marion Barry and you could be crack whore?
Either way.

As long as that doesn't refer to Dom DeLuise I'm down.
