That's $1.53 per second. I wonder if I can get twenty bucks worth.

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

I don't really understand how these things work, but I had a good thought. If the blind lieutenant governor becomes governor, maybe we can get him an ugly girlfriend for less. He'll never know, and it could save the taxpayers of New York a lot of money.

So if we combine headlines, the "lady's" time is worth just under 51 barrels of oil.

Well, that's because only those who have perfected the "Splittengoofer" manoeuver are allowed to charge that high a price. If you've never ran into one of us...er, I mean, them, then it stands to reason that you can't imagine it.

I hear tell that there are a couple who do Pro Bono work. They'd better not let the Union catch them. Or Bono's wife.

Why DO political wives do that? It's one thing to Stand By Your Man when you know he is innocent and that he is being falsely accused of something (as Hillary did all those times that Bill was falsely accused of things by the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy), but when there is no question that the guy is guilty (as when he admits to his, um, indiscretion, as Spitzer did), why is it necessary for the wife to have to stand there and be on public display like that? I could understand it if she were standing there with his shredded nuts hanging from her teeth, but it seem that she is usually being The Supportive Spouse, and I wonder, supportive of what?

I believe this is a tactic to establish plausible deniabiliity, just in case the husband happens to take out the garbage some night, trip over the cat on the back porch, lose his balance, do a double-flip off the top step, and land smack dab on top of three .38 bullets that just happen to be passing through the neighborhood. At least, that's why I'd do it.

And let me tell you something--if I ever pulled a stunt like that, Mrs. Buff would not be standing next to me at the podium. In fact, now that I think about it, I wouldn't be standing, well, anywhere.

And, most damning of all, what it says about his ability to manage a budget and the state's economy. He paid $4300?! Anybody knows you can take $100 into any strip club in the country and get perfectly good service and keep the $4200. Idiot.
