Senior Republican Ratfucker from Florida Told FBI About Spitzer

March 23rd, 2008

Ratfucking is an American slang term for political sabotage or dirty tricks. It was first brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in their book All the President’s Men.

Ok, so now it’s official: Spitzer was taken out on purpose.

I assume that any connections to Florida are related to drugs. But who knows… Over the last week or so, I’ve read Spitzer-9/11 and Spitzer-subprime.

The only thing I know for sure is: I don’t know.

For example, I’m sitting here wondering: CIA involvement or No CIA involvement? Sure, it’s possible, maybe even likely, that this Roger Stone prick has, “a social contact in an adult-themed club.” After all, we’re talking about the “family values” crew here. But what are the odds that this particular prick would hear the dope on Spitzer via such channels? Of all the whores and johns and clubs and Republican goons in the world, Roger Stone has something to say to the FBI about what Elliot Spitzer was doing with his wee wee?!

Oh yeah, don’t forget the pimp with three passports (two Israeli and one U.S.).

Via: Miami Herald:

Almost four months before Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigned in a sex scandal, a lawyer for Republican political operative Roger Stone sent a letter to the FBI alleging that Spitzer ”used the services of high-priced call girls” while in Florida.

The letter, dated Nov. 19, said Miami Beach resident Stone learned the information from ”a social contact in an adult-themed club.” It offered one potentially identifying detail: the man in question hadn’t taken off his calf-length black socks “during the sex act.”

Stone, known for shutting down the 2000 presidential election recount effort in Miami-Dade County, is a longtime Spitzer nemesis whose political experience ranges from the Nixon White House to Al Sharpton’s presidential campaign. His lawyer wrote the letter containing the call-girl allegations after FBI agents had asked to speak to Stone, though he says the FBI did not specify why he was contacted.

”Mr. Stone respectfully declines to meet with you at this time,” the letter states, before going on to offer ”certain information” about Spitzer.

”The governor has paid literally tens of thousands of dollars for these services. It is Mr. Stone’s understanding that the governor paid not with credit cards or cash but through some pre-arranged transfer,” the letter said.

”It is also my client’s understanding from the same source that Governor Spitzer did not remove his mid-calf length black socks during the sex act. Perhaps you can use this detail to corroborate Mr. Stone’s information,” the letter said, signed by attorney Paul Rolf Jensen of Costa Mesa, Calif.

The letter also notes that while Stone believes the information is true, he ”cannot swear to its accuracy” because it is second-hand.

James Margolin, a spokesman for the FBI’s New York office, would not say whether the bureau had received the letter. A spokeswoman for Spitzer also had no comment.

The letter was written several months after allegations were leveled at Stone that he had left a threatening phone message at the office of Bernard Spitzer, the ex-governor’s father, regarding ”phony” campaign loans involving his son’s unsuccessful 1994 bid for attorney general. Stone denied making the call but resigned as a consultant for state Senate Republicans in Albany.

Spitzer, the crusading attorney general who became governor, resigned March 12 amid allegations he was a client of a high-paid prostitution ring, the Emperors’ Club. Four people have been charged with operating the ring. Spitzer has not been charged. A federal affidavit described a rendezvous between Spitzer and a prostitute known as Kristen, since identified as Ashley Alexandra Dupre, at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington on Feb. 13.

One of Stone’s lawyers, Fort Lauderdale attorney Robert Buschel, said the letter’s release is an attempt to set the record straight about Stone’s possible part in the Spitzer drama. Stone confirmed the letter and referred The Miami Herald to his lawyer for comments.

”The conspiracy enthusiasts on the Internet are going wild over Roger Stone’s role in the fall of Eliot Spitzer. We felt it was important to lay out for the public exactly what Mr. Stone did tell the government,” said Buschel, a partner in Rothstein, Rosenfeldt, Adler of Fort Lauderdale.

Stone works as a partner in a separate public affairs and consulting company with the same name — Rothstein, Rosenfeldt, Adler — in the same office as the law firm.

”We trust this information was helpful to federal authorities in making their case against Mr. Spitzer,” Buschel said.

    Amen!

    There’s always an Israeli involved, isn’t there?

  3. Eileen says:

    I for one think it is a rat fuck hit job tangentially connected to 9/11. Some write that Spitzer was in on the 9/11 hit job. Maybe so.
    But as Governor I believe his affilitations changed. Have you heard of anyone other public official writing against the Bush Mafia and the subprime?
    Follow the money. This might also explain the Israeli passports. Heh. Heh.

    I meant to add sure, CIA is involved.
    Carlisle = Bush Sr. = CIA.
    Duh, the CIA headquarters at Langley in Washington D.C. has been named after Bush.
    I keep trying to remind myself to take a picture of this HUGE sign as we drive out of Washington D.C. past the CIA marked by “The George H.Bush Bush Center for Intelligence.”
    I know I have a very dark sense of humor. But that sign is always good for a laugh. You know, seeing the name Bush and Intelligence on the same sign. Sigh.
    Iraq and Intelligence and Bush. Cripe.

  5. Eileen says:

    sorry for all my typos. Just off of 55 hours of 24/7 😉

    anyone = any
    Carlisle = Carlyle
    and the is only one Bush not Bush Bush on the sign!
    But if it were Bush Bush on the sign. Ha ha ha.

  6. Eileen says:

    Uh, and what is happening re Carlyle this week? All of those U.S. pension funds in California that just developed wings saying bye-bye.
    Absent the first announcement re the Carlyle investmment fund going belly up this is no longer news worthy?
    Eh?
