Let All the Whores Be Revealed

Today Rob Kall of OpEd News, responding to the reported bidding war between Penthouse and Hustler for access to the prostitute in the Spitzer sting, wrote: Spitzer's Whore Should Not Make A Nickel...

I commented:

Neither should the other Whores. . .


Like the mainstream media that looked the other way when John Conyers, Jr. was holding hearings in December 2004 in Ohio (and sooooo many other times). . .

Like Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Tucker Carlson, etc. -- who knowingly distort information to gain favor with the rich and powerful. . .

Like Colin Powell, who was informed by military analysts prior to his United Nations speech that the aluminum tubes were NOT for uranium processing . . .

Like Condoleeza Rice, who -- I can't even begin to list her frightening incompetence, lies, and defensive obfuscations as both National Security Advisor and Secretary of State -- but there was an eery window into her pscyhe when in 2004 New York Magazine reported that at a Washington social event Miss Rice tripped on her words, referring to GWB as "my husb--" before finding the term "President Bush" - this from a woman who has never had an occasion to use the term "my husband". . .

Like every White House appointee who got the job because of ties to industry, Karl Rove, and/or the neoconservatives. . .

Like the Christian Right, who believe they are above Christ's message of compassion and the Golden Rule. . .

Like "Christians United for Israel" -- the lobbyist group founded by Pastor John Hagee (who recently endorsed McCain), which strongly supports Israel's attacks on Hamas, Lebanon and urges attacks on Iran -- while praying for the Rapture/Armageddon, which coincidentally brings the wiping out of the Jewish people. . .

Like the arms manufacturers, who know about the carcinogenic, chemically poisonous vaporized depleted uranium they have let loose . . .

Like all the other Deciders who choose pollution and wealth over the survival of their own progeny -- I mean, really, what can Dick and Lynne Cheney, and their daughter Elizabeth (a chip off the old Vader) and her husband Philip Perry, be telling the grandkids? Just how big are they making that underground safehouse?

Still, even more important than the whores. . .

THE PIMPS.


While it is extraordinarily pitiful to watch yet another man lose everything over the need to get unauthorized, immature, cheating, naughty sex (rather than evolve into an honest meaningful responsible compassionate sexual relationship with his spouse)...

It is also obvious that powerful wealthy interests found Spitzer to be a very testy problem. In addition to Bush and the mortgage bankers, there's also Shell Oil/Giuliani/Broadwater, Roger Stone, and probably many more.

As the truth creeps out, we may end up thanking Spitzer for his weakness, because the light will shine on so many more Pimps and Whores who have been parading as legitimate entities and people, and give us the chance to clean up our system of democracy.
