There, I said it.

I am fully aware that as a feminist I should be wagging my finger at Spitzer for the rest of his life for his stupidity and hypocrisy. You know what, though? I don't give a shit these days given how Wall Street is taking down the whole country with them.

To be honest, I miss Elliot Spitzer the Attorney General more so than the Governor. No offense to Cuomo who is doing a somewhat decent job. I just sigh whenever I read a column like this one:

But wait a moment, aren't we in the midst of reopening contracts all over the place to share the burden of this crisis? From raising taxes --income taxes to sales taxes-- to properly reopening labor contracts, we are all being asked to pitch in and carry our share of the burden. Workers around the country are being asked to take pay cuts and accept shorter work weeks so that colleagues won't be laid off. Why can't Wall Street royalty shoulder some of the burden? Why did Goldman have to get back 100 cents on the dollar? Didn't we already give Goldman a $25 billion capital infusion, and aren't they sitting on more than $100 billion in cash? Haven't we been told recently that they are beginning to come back to fiscal stability? If that is so, couldn't they have accepted a discount, and couldn't they have agreed to certain conditions before the AIG dollars --that is, our dollars-- flowed?

The appearance that this was all an inside job is overwhelming. AIG was nothing more than a conduit for huge capital flows to the same old suspects, with no reason or explanation.

This is my wish for Spitzer: We need something like The Sunlight Foundation for New York City. I would love to see Elliot head a non-profit dedicated to bringing transparency and stamp out corruption to ever single aspect of New York state and local governments along with the courts and all federal agency dependencies with a huge chunk focused on that 8th ring of hell called Wall Street.

Yeah, I know it's not politically correct to talk about him in public, but fuck it. I want Elliot Spitzer and his steamroller ways unleashed on Wall Street and all their enablers in this state right now.

The added bonus? Payback to all the assholes that back-stabbed him. Forget about the niceties. Revenge is sweet.
