"I’m not going to take this lying down," Governor Spritzer said in resolute tone. "I have a history of ‘standing up’ for things that I value, like $5,000-an-hour prostitutes," the governor unabashedly explained. (Yisroel Pensack)
Here are more Eliot Spitzer jokes:
"The big new scandal breaking here in New York, Eliot Spitzer apparently involved in some kind of prostitution activities — you know what that means?: Hookers. And right now, Spitzer is huddling with his advisers to develop a drinking problem." –David Letterman
"Gov. Spitzer responded just a few hours ago. He said, quote, ‘I violated my obligations to my family and I violated my sense of what is right and wrong.’ Spitzer also admitted violating someone named Amber." –Conan O’Brien
"Eliot Spitzer admitted publicly that he was involved in a prostitution ring, which means Hillary Clinton, now, only the second angriest wife in the state of New York." –Jay Leno
"According to the FBI wiretap, they had the transcript, Gov. Spitzer was listed as Client No.9. No. 9? He’s the governor, who were the eight guys in front of him? You’d think as governor, you’d at least get to go first." –Jay Leno
"This is the guy who vowed to clean up New York. But to be fair, he did bring prostitution to its knees one girl at a time." –Jay Leno
"Here’s what happened, it was one of those sting deals. And they caught Eliot Spitzer, Gov. Spitzer, with a wire, recording him soliciting a prostitute. And I’m thinking, ‘Holy cow, we can’t get Bin Laden, but we got Spitzer. We got Sptizer.’" –David Letterman
"The thinking is the governor may step down now to spend less time with his family. The good thing is, he was caught soliciting a hooker, but on the bright side, it did not involve an airport men’s room." –David Letterman
