I think this is what my grandfather would call "bad for the Jews."Update: Remember when David Vitter was outed as part of a prostitution ring? I don't remember quite this level of awed fury. On the bright side, no election for a couple days!Update the Second: Sigh. It's the hypocrisy, scumbag:
As attorney general, [Spitzer] also had prosecuted at least two prostitution rings as head of the state’s organized crime task force.In one such case in 2004, Mr. Spitzer spoke with revulsion and anger after announcing the arrest of 16 people for operating a high-end prostitution ring out of Staten Island.“This was a sophisticated and lucrative operation with a multitiered management structure,” Mr. Spitzer said at the time. ”It was, however, nothing more than a prostitution ring.”Did he ask them for a recommendation before sending them to jail? Let me be clear: I don't think prostitution should be illegal. I think it should regulated and, insofar as possible, rendered safe for both the customers and the prostitutes. But insofar as you do think prostitution should be illegal, it shouldn't just be illegal for people more powerful than yourself.
