What an idiot.

Elliot Spitzer has dug his own grave with his penis. Why would you go to the trouble to paint a large target on yourself, when everyone on Wall Street already hated you? This is really an unbelievable story to me - the guy modeled himself as an “Untouchable” and then goes and pays $4000 to be “touched”. Caught using a wiretap of all things - he should know never to talk on the phone about illegal things.

Does this prove that you need to be somewhat deranged to run for public office? That a screw needs to be loose in the head? (Get your mind out of the gutter) I think we should just streamline the whole electoral process and only elect people that are in need of psychological help. This would speed things up a bit.

Or maybe it just shows human frailty. And the need for people in power to randomly hookup with other people that they are not married to. As Chris Rock says, a man is only as faithful as his options. I guess being the governor gets you more options….

The number of American adults is about 230 million, meaning that one in every 99.1 adults is [getting free health care].”

The report, from the Pew Center on the States, goes on to state “The cost of medical care is growing by 10 percent annually, the report said, and will accelerate as the ….. population ages. “

In this day and age when employers are taking the beating of ever expanding healthcare bills, why do some people get a free ride? My company pays thousands of dollars every month in premiums for very basic coverage - and the employees pay the other half. Why can’t my people get 100% free healthcare?
