I'm going to throw the remote through the TV if one more news twink says something on the order of "When we come back, we'll look into what drives a successful man like Eliot Spitzer to risk it all..."
Oh yes, let's convene a panel of experts for that. Let me help you: because he wants to get his nut off! Stop with all the analysis! It never ends, I hear all these people talking about how powerful people think they can get away with anything, so it's a thrill, or that it's for this psychological reason or this one -- please, he wanted to CUM WITH SOMEONE! Stop overthinking this: people need sex, and married people generally aren't getting it. Studies show (OK, I'm making that up, but it's true nonetheless) that people married 20 years only have sex on Valentine's Day, their anniversary, and their birthdays. You can hate me as the messenger, but it's true -- how can anyone be expected to still want to score with someone you've been having sex with for a score? Mr. Spitzer simply wanted what humans desire, to feel that sensational sensation when you're hot for someone, to touch and hug and bump and grind -- this is really not that complicated! If you're ascribing more to it than that, it's probably really more about your own fear that your spouse wants to do the same thing.
Or is doing it. Married people are often starved for sex, touch, affection, not to mention the kinky stuff that wifey definitely won't do. So if you find yourself at such a place in life -- and this is most certainly wives as well -- where you're dieing like this, you can do one of three things: get divorced, cheat, or continue to live a life with little or no passion, sex, etc. It's easy to point fingers, but how about some recognition that society's rules are so at odds with human nature that there are actually no good options for an Eliot Spitzer, and the ZILLIONS OF PEOPLE JUST LIKE HIM, many of who are tut-tut-ing today. I guess a guy is a hero who sticks it out and leads a life of quiet desperation. I'm not so sure it's heroic to make him.
I can't help but think that the Clinton campaign isn't negotiating as we speak for the rights to air that scene as their campaign ads.
I just wish Bill Maher would give it a rest on how "all women want everything from one man, and all men want just one thing from every woman"! He makes much better points when he stops generalizing so grossly.
Don;t get me wrong , you're still funny and witty and politically incorrect.
Any time a governer (or any other politician) puts himself in such a position (horny or not) he has already failed his post.
as far as sin and all that crap dont let the self righteous get you down. they just wish they could do it so they project their guilt on to the guy doing it.
when the evangels quit being war mongers and self righteous and wanting to blame the gays for every evil in the world and think they are the only path to heaven maybe i will join them but i aint holding my breath. and who did jesus have the most problems with in his time. you guessed it the religious fundamentalists.
they dont have a clue they are exactly what jesus taught his followers not to be. not a clue.
If you're a politician cracking down on organized crime, DO NOT use those services provided by the organized crime you're trying to crack down....
He knew how law enforcement investigates and flags people.
Just like Clinton did it with a girl who was way WAY too young not to immediately have to go and talk about it.
That's what at issue. Not the sex, but the level of stupidity of the risk. This makes it psychologically, um, expressive.
Doesn't mean Eliot is a nut. Means he is like a lot of men, stupid as hell sometimes when it comes to getting his nut.
Sure, the thrill of doing something illegal, of conning others, was probably part of the excitement. It was risky as hell. But the magnet pulling Elliot was the same magnet pullling a lot of men -- the amazing lure of being worshiped at the altar of your prick. Don't ever underestimate that power.
Yes, maybe I didn't know about all the tricks of the trade because I was a virgin when I got married.
But, we had great sex as my ex told our counselor who was attempting to save our marriage. I loved sex with him. We played, we had fun, but he had a girlfriend or two, our entire marriage. I finally left when I figured out he was never going to change. It took 16 years though. I loved him more than life itself.
I still love him, 20 years later. He is still a womanizer, albeit, an older one. He married the women who finally broke us up. He told me some things she would do for him sexually that I had never heard of much less, would have done. Talk about unsafe! I left him and moved to Colorado with our son. The other woman who married him, stayed 7 months after years of trying to get him. She wrecked my marriage, for what it was worth. He married again, and still is unfaithful to her. She just enjoys the money and drinks too much. He is still in touch and sends me money and my son money. My son is so screwed up because of this. Not by women but by drugs. We are making headway now, as my son is now turning 35 and knows that his father has a huge problem. The ex was an alpha male. Ambitious, now rich, ran marathons, and circles around everyone who worked with him. But, he had to screw every woman he knew from friends wives, to my friends, when he could. Plus, every women he met because he could. Don't blame the wives of these men for their sins of unfaithfulness.
The men are the sorry souls who will never be happy except for when their dick is inside of some slut.
Same, Same, Same...He's sick now and wants to come home so I can care for him. NOT!
love to inspire
and up from this world
marriage to acquire
and while the first
demands the absolute truth
im afraid the other
is far, far, far, to often
but a lier.
s.2000
He didn't mean to pay for sex,
That wasn't part of the plan,
But though he was the governor,
He was also a genitalman.
