"Over the course of my public life, I have insisted, I believe correctly, that people, regardless of their position or power, take responsibility for their conduct. I can and will ask no less of myself." Eliot Spitzer, March 2008.
Isn't it off-putting that getting caught creates the opportunity to pontificate? Where was this kind of statement before the revelations? And would it have been made had the revelations never been made? Without being holier than thou, one wonders whether or not one should assume a priori that everyone is NDG.
