Semi-Daily Rants from New York City's Angry Man

"As I know more of mankind I expect less of them, and am ready now to call a man a good man, upon easier terms than I was formerly." - Dr. Samuel Johnson, Boswell, Life of Johnson, Sept. 1783

Eliot "Schadenfreude" Spitzer - or Fractured Fairytales from the Empire State

We must say, we rather enjoy the mess Governor Spitzer has created for himself. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Today the steamroller is not only out gas, but appears to have run over his own foot in recent months before coming to a halt on the shoulder. Despite Spitzer's campaign pledge that everything would change, recent months have revealed nothing appears to have changed, and as the State and New York City begin facing the reality that tax revenues are DOWN (we muse sotto voce whether the fact that residents, not counting illegal aliens hoping to get driver's licenses, are leaving the state have had an effect), the music chair of the coming budget fandango should be amusing to behold to all but NY taxpayers as the long line of interest groups Spitzer has made promises to knock on his door to collect.
