ALBANY - Gov. Eliot Spitzer has been caught on a federal wiretap arranging to meet with a high-priced prostitute at a Washington hotel last month, according to a person briefed on the federal investigation.

An affidavit in the federal investigation into a prostitution ring said that a wiretap recording captured a man identified as Client 9 on a telephone call confirming plans to have a woman travel from New York to Washington, where he had reserved a hotel room. The person briefed on the case identified Mr. Spitzer as Client 9.

Mr. Spitzer today made a brief public appearance during which he apologized for his behavior, and described it as a “private matter.”

“I have acted in a way that violates my obligation to my family and violates my or any sense of right or wrong,” said Mr. Spitzer, who appeared with his wife Silda at his Manhattan office. “I apologize first and most importantly to my family. I apologize to the public to whom I promised better.”

“his promise to clean up ethics in NY state government”

Code words for removing all ethical Republicans in NY state government. Are there any?

I’m going to read and refresh my warped memory about Dietrich Snell.

The MSM really bent over and grabbed their ankles for Spitzer and the Toons on that one.

Between the laws he proposed and the way he conducted politics, one has to believe Spitzer had very personal reasons for opposing the Second Amendment.

You’re right, Meek.

They condemn ours, too.

Unfortunately, we don’t seem to condemn them enough.

I’m sorry to hear you’ve been sick.

We need you making graphics, but we need you well more.
Get some rest, and work when you feel like it.

Feel better!
