Best Spitzer joke lines
16 March 2008
You might not follow the august Sunday Times. So here’s their round-up of the better lines about Eliot Spitzer’s downfall:
America’s comedians and tabloid headline writers have had a field day with the prostitution scandal featuring Eliot Spitzer:
- “Hillary Clinton is now only the second-angriest wife in the state of New York” – Jay Leno
- “The governor was only supporting New York’s No 1 industry” – David Letterman
- “Eliot Spitzer is set to leave office on Monday – which means a hooker party at the governor’s mansion this weekend” – Jimmy Kimmel
- “Politics is the only profession where, when a guy gets caught with a hooker, the wife has to stand by his side. You know, if this guy was a plumber and he got caught with a prostitute, he’d have his wife’s tyre tracks over his head” – Leno
- “It’s sad. Spitzer said there is so much he left undone: Amber, Ashley, Rhonda” – Letterman
- “The governor-erect” – New York Post
- “The name of this prostitute service is the Emperors Club, which sounds better than Whore House, doesn’t it? . . . On the website they rank the girls from one to seven diamonds. The diamonds represent how many you have to buy for your wife after you get caught” – Leno
- “He thought Bill Clinton legalised this years ago” – Letterman
