Eliot Spitzer, Governor of New York, resigned yesterday after being linked to a high priced ($5,000 per hour!) prostitution ring.
And there are many other politicians who have resigned under a cloud, are serving jail terms, or are just sneaking around up to no good.
We should not be shocked since there is nothing new under the sun. These quotes merely prove that proposition:
When they call the roll in the Senate, the Senators do not know whether to answer "Present" or "Not guilty."
Theodore Roosevelt.
It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly American criminal class except Congress.
Mark Twain
Enough said!
