Eliot Spitzer Kept On Black Stocking Socks During Prostitute Romps, Feds Told

The New York Daily News reports that a controversial political strategist alerted federal authorities to Eliot Spitzer's dalliances with prostitutes, adding the detail that the former governor kept "his midcalf-length black socks" on while using the services of the high-priced call girl:

A controversial political strategist sent a letter to the feds in November saying that then-Gov. Eliot Spitzer "used the services of high-priced call girls" in Florida - and kept his socks on while he did.

The missive from a lawyer for Roger Stone said his client had obtained the lowdown on Spitzer from "a social contact in an adult-themed club."

"The governor has paid literally tens of thousands of dollars for these services," the letter to the FBI reads, according to the Miami Herald. "It is Mr. Stone's understanding that the governor paid not with credit cards or cash but through some prearranged transfer.

"It is also my client's understanding from the same source that Governor Spitzer did not remove his midcalf-length black socks during the sex act," said the letter, which was signed by Stone's attorney Paul Rolf Jensen. "Perhaps you can use this detail to corroborate Mr. Stone's information."

Why are the media campaigning against Eliot Spitzer? Find out by reading the excellent article at the link below:


"A useful rule of thumb in evaluating spectacular scandals around prominent public figures is to ask what and who might want to eliminate that person."

While everybody's laughing at Spitzer jokes, are you not recognizing the name ROGER STONE?
ROGER STONE, member of CREEP?
ROGER STONE of Willy Horton fame?
ROGER STONE who helped throw the 2000 election?
Spitzer's resignatiuon was a Republican setup - he hurt too many Republican crooks on Wall Street.

FOOT CONDOMS...Spitzer's idea of safe sex.

[booksnmore4you]

And the best reply is.... so freakin' what? Maybe he always has cold feet?

[MsLiz]

or ugly feet. He paid his price of admission, he can leave his dress socks on. That's not exactly a fetish.

Actually, in a hurry, or lazy and inconsiderate.

There is nothing more ridiculous looking than a man wearing nothing but his socks.

Overshare, stop!

During the sex act, During the sex act!!
Please tell me this information came off AP or Reuters.

What does the color of his socks have to do with the political hit job scored on the guy who was fighting predatory lending by the same people to whom Busco gave a taxpayer-borne handout/bailout package? What has his self-funded hobby to do with the fact that he, as a john, was subject to investigation by a massive federal taskforce, while the clients of the "DC madam" case (coincidentally involving high-ranking GOPers) were let loose? I mean, surely news involving a fetching blonde is a must-pursue for any self-respecting journo, but wouldn't there be a more pressing deeper point here that might do with some actual journalistic work perchance?

Hello?

[Shantee]

Too much information!

[Toonadude]

Hey --- he's modest.

[Maya11]

The one and only time I'll EVER quote Dick Cheney-"So"?

[sisyphus]

Wow. Why would anyone even care what he wore? I don't even care that he paid for sex with a consenting adult with his own money.

I do care that he was singled out for prosecution, but SOCKS??? Somebody needs to get a life.

[Mutineer]

If you're a fan of Coupling (the BBC version) you know that Eliot fell into the sock gap. But I guess when you're paying, you can wear whatever you want.

[WomanInOrangeSweater]

While i'm really grateful to know the details about the socks, I'd like to know a little more about the "controversial political strategist," too. Thanks.

If only vaudville and burlesque were still around. What a great act Eliot Spizer gliding accross the stage wearing only his black executive stockings and garters while Larry Craig wearing only his shiny new "mary-janes" does an Irish step dance and Bill "firsr Black president" Clinton in grease-paint and on bended knee belts out a medley of Al Joelson favorites.
