There never was a horse that couldn't be rode and there never was a cowboy that couldn't be throwed.

Anyone notice the resemblance between Spitzer and LSU head coach Les Miles?

Now, this brings up another question: Has Les Miles been named "Client # " on anyone's VIP list? Hmm? Well?!? Has he? I think the suggestion is proof enough. :lol:

From the Smoking Gun:

Photos Of Eliot Spitzer's Hooker
Meet "Kristen," the 22-year-old woman who brought down the governor

MARCH 12--Meet "Kristen," the high-priced hooker who trysted with Eliot "Client-9" Spitzer last month at that Washington, D.C. hotel. The 22-year-old prostitute's real name is Ashley Alexandra Dupre (though she was born Ashley Youmans), according to a New York Times report. On the following pages you'll find an assortment of photos that the young prostitute has previously uploaded to her MySpace page, which describes Kristen/Ashley as an aspiring musician who left home at 17 and has been in New York City since 2004.

I hope that the wife leaves with his millions and wipes some of that smirk off his face. :evil: He's probably playing that Tammy Wynette song (Stand By Your Man) to her, as we speak.

If someone were to pay you ten cents for every kind word you ever spoke and collect five cents for every unkind word, would you be rich or poor?

Wow, I hope all people are not so quik to throw away their spouses.

While I do not condon this behavior, I do know that it is far better in most cases, for the couple to stay together. There does not seem to be any evidence of physical or emotional abuse in his past.

This behavior is certainly evidence of a deeper relational problem.

Please be careful how you make your claims as to what you would or would not do.

Anyone else look at those photos and think, "For that kind of money, you'd think he could do better."?

Dr. Ron, I respect you, but I can tell you one thing if a man is having sex and paying for it with anyone else but his wife, then I certainly do not see why a woman has to "stand by her man."

If a woman is caught cheating, she's considered a whore and ever sympathizes with the poor husband. Why is it that a man should be treated differently?

Good points raised by everyone.

The scary thing is what if she got an STD passed to her by her husband after one of his Close Encounters with the Third Kind.

My wife is, but you couldn't buy her for that.

I think what Dr. Ron is saying (and I'd agree) is that no matter if it's the man or the woman, if the marriage can be salvaged, that should be at least attempted first. As Christians forgiveness is required, and reconciliation if possible would still be best.
