Rep Power: 369 | | | Addiction If one spends $8K on 8 separate occasions gambling, one is a gambling addict.
If one spends $8k on drugs on separate occasions, one is a drug addict.
If one spends $8K on separate occasion on alcohol, one is an alcoholic.
If one pends $8K on 8 separate occasions on sex, one is a lowlife scumbag for whom no punishment is too severe.
Please explain.

How that sums up addiction, or how it doesn't?

Rep Power: 14 | | | I dotn feel the need to comdem any sex addict.
I do agree they looked for something to get rid of Spitzer for.
He fought the power and is very likely a sex addict too.

I love the double standard democrats have, their party can do ANYTHING, say ANYTHING, break any law and it is just fine. A republican even blinks near any of that and it is " kick that bastard out" time.

Rep Power: 14 | | | Oh I did not say he should not suffer the consequences of his actions my friend.
I do however think the reason he was pursued was his persuing of high level finacial fraud cases.

They truly believe in the golden rule, do unto other's BEFORE they can do unto YOU!
If the Democratic party did an assessment of themselves, at this point in the election process, you would have to admit, they are sucking HARD on the hind tit!
