Call-girl business: high pay, brief career
I don’t know which is more surprising: That caped crusader Eliot Spitzer allegedly had sex with a call girl, or that he paid her $4,300.
If you haven’t been in the market for a prostitute lately, that might sound like a lot of money. But it’s pretty typical for a high-priced call girl in a big city.
The Emperor’s Club VIP, the New York agency Spitzer allegedly used to hire a prostitute, charged $1,000 to $3,100 per hour for its so-called models, depending on their “education, sophistication and ambience created,” according to a cached version of the club’s Web site, which has been taken down.
The club’s “most valued clients” were offered membership in the Icon Club, which allowed them access to “the most highly ranked prostitutes whose fees started at $5,500 per hour,” according to a complaint filed in federal court for the southern district of New York.
Spitzer allegedly arranged a four-hour date with “Kristen” - identified by the New York Times on Wednesday as Ashley Alexandra Dupre - in Washington, D.C., on Feb. 13. It was the night before Valentine’s Day and his testimony before Congress on bond insurance.
His $4,300 payment appeared to include $1,500 to be put on deposit with the Emperor’s Club for his next rendezvous.

There’s some truth to that. It is well known that Hitler and the Nazis in general drew inspiration for their own pogroms from the US’s extermination of the various native tribes, for instance.That said, i think the Nazis had more influence on us and our politics than the other way around.
Perhaps you didn’t understand the sarcasm of my “We were Nazis before Germany!?!”…
And Himmler was from Ohio
And now, i’m betting, we’re doing it again.
No, all hail RON PAUL OMFG CONSPIRACIES!!!!!1143 ROFLBBOMG.Seriously though, take the conspiracy nuts with a pinch of salt. This is the Internet, not a logical land of debate and substantial evidence.
You spelled ROFLBBQOMG wrong.
And thats my point - To get into political power, there has to be some drop in ethics somewhere. Everyone has their Achilles heel. My suspicions is that the neocons have exploited the Patriot Act to not really look for terrorist activity, but to find dirt on their opponents.
I think part of the problem is an unrealistically high moral expectation of our leaders. Nobody is 100% righteous, and those who claim to be are probably hiding something.
:O We were Nazis before Germany!?!
Do you happen to have information towards that end? Like a source? I would like to learn more about that. I will try to find that myself.I really wasn’t trying to be flippant in my previous post. Mod me down redditers if you want, but the fact remains the vast majority of our problems are because of our dealings and corrupt politics.We armed the very terrorists we are now “fighting against” for instance.
Why? Can none of them actually be fucking moral and ethical? Maybe they should all be thrown out.
