New York Gov. Spitzer linked to prostitute: report

[Thorne]

Prostitutes and camp-followers have been around since the day after the first army was invented. In some areas it can be the greatest source of income for the indigenous population.

I think, with rare exceptions, it is only human nature that we are not generally sorry for doing something, especially something enjoyable, UNTIL we get caught. I once heard it stated that the type of personality required for making a successful politician almost guarantees that he will be attractive to, and attracted to, the opposite sex. So it shouldn't be surprising when our politicians stray.
