Ok..I'm sure everyone knows all about this....however, it has raised some interesting thought processes in TAB'S demented cranial cavity so I thought I would just throw some things out to get some reactions.......
Ashley Alexandra Dupré, 22, the woman called Kristen is the $5,500.00 an hour hooker (let me spell that....Five Thousand five hundred dollar an hour) that was the object of Spitzer's affections....
Silda Is Spitzer's wife who stood beside him during his confession of wrongdoing and his resignation as Governor.
PERPLEXING QUESTIONS:
IN LIGHT OF HIS PROMISING CAREER, AND HIS FAMILY HONOR WHY DID HE DO WHAT HE DID?
The answer to this could fill 4 books...but I think the short answer is that he was in a position as governor that would allow him to have the freedom to take part in such activities without a high risk of exposure......He made the mistake of dealing with an escort service that was under federal investigation....therefore GOTCHA !!
Were there problems at home, work, etc...etc...that led him to seek the services of a high priced call girl or was it the "Thrill" of doing something "Taboo" for a married family man?
A $5,500.00 an hour hooker?
I am so sorry but what the hell is with this...there is nothing .... N O T H I N G a woman has, or can do that is worth that kind of money...so what the hell was he thinking to pay that kind of money for sex....
The only 3 things I could think of that would be worth that kind of hourly rate would be a round of golf at Augusta National (home of the Master's) or a one on one chat with either Carl Sagan or William Buckley Jr. two men I totally admired and respected... which will give you a barometer of my sanity
So it must be that money to these type people is meaningless... they have so much money that price is not a consideration..... Money to them is like M&M's to me....I have plenty so I can afford to let you have as many as you want......
STAND BY YOUR MAN?
What is with these women who stand by their men who do this sort of stuff...It happens over and over...what is their problem.
If that were me...Not only would my wife not be there, I would not be there...My ass would be a hood ornament for her SUV and they would spend a week getting my teeth, hair, eyeballs and skin out of the front grill and radiator....
As a wife, I would love to think that I'd kick the bum to the curb or at least make him pay. However, I think she's in shock and probably demoralized in a way we wouldn't necessarily understand. It's not always so easy to make the right decision, as you well know. I'm not in the least sure what I'd do, I think it depends on the circumstances.
As to Spitzer, all I can say is absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Anexplorer...very good question...and how many parties of interest are there...I doubt it stops at 9....could it be that there will be more press conferences in the future. Who knows....but I think there is a lot more to this than is currently out....The money required for this service should include some very well heeled people in prominent places...

Do you need to know what my wife would do if I pulled something like this?
Ever think how many folks in Uganda could be helped for this amount?

putting his wife through that kind of public humiliation.
Why she would be by his side, and why he would allow her to be by his side is beyond me.....
Old TAB can not make a moral judgement as you may well have figured out by now...but to put her through that to me is uncalled for.....
thanks for the comment...
Happy St Patrick's Day!
