Think Progress, August 7, 2007:

Humility Has To Be More Than Just A Talking Point link

Our guest blogger is New York State Gov. Eliot Spitzer. [ lmao - konservo]

– First, it is my core belief that without passion and conviction in politics we are doomed to fail.

– And second, there are serious risks that occur when those same qualities – passion and conviction – are not tempered by humility. Whether it is foreign policy abroad or domestic affairs here in New York, I believe that how we as political leaders manage these risks will ultimately determine our success.

Hubris has been a major fundamental flaw behind the Bush Administration’s failed foreign policy.

Hubris:D

Think Progress, Today:

Spitzer linked to prostitution ring. link

New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer (D) “informed his most senior administration officials that he had been involved in a prostitution ring.” Spitzer “abruptly canceled his scheduled public events for the day” and “is set to make an announcement about 2:15 this afternoon at his Manhattan office.”

UPDATE: Fox News is reporting that sources say Spitzer is “expected to resign.”

UPDATE II: In his public statement, Spitzer apologized to the public and his family but did not resign.

UPDATE III: TNR notes that Spitzer once prosecuted prostitution rings. 

:lol:

  5. “Kristen” stated: ‘I don’t think he’s difficult. I mean it’s just kind of like . . . whatever. . . I’m here for a purpose. I know what my purpose is. I am not a . . . moron, you know what I mean. So maybe that’s why girls maybe think they’re difficult . . . . ” “Kristen” continued: “That’s what it is, because you’re here for a [purpose]. Let’s not get it twisted – I know what I do, you know.”
