A JetBlue flight was diverted from its trip to San Francisco today when Christina Szele lit up a cigarette mid flight and became abusive to the flight attendant who was reminding her that we don’t do that. She claims she doesn’t remember disregarding the particularly well known regulation because she was drunk. She certainly must have been.

I am reminded of Steve Martin’s famous bit in which he sarcastically suggests that the ultimate defense is to simply declare; ‘I forgot’, as in ‘I forgot armed robbery was illegal‘. Apparently Mrs. Szele thinks being drunk is good enough an excuse.

I am calling her to the carpet as an Arrogant Jerk for two reasons; 1. failing to realize that she can’t hold her liquor, and 2. for not remembering how sensitive we are in the skies these days to even the slightest infraction.

Smoking, by the way, is not a slight infraction when flying in a closed space at 30,000 feet. The smallest fire on board a plane can be lethal, and if you haven’t been paying attention: Lethal is bad. Sure, we used to do it 30 years ago, but there was a time we thought bloodletting was a good idea, too.

While I hope this single ridiculouse incident doesn’t cause anyone to suggest that carrying cigarettes on board be made illegal, I have to consider that it may take that kind of extreme nonesense to get the point across to smokers. (You may recal from this article that I am not hip to the Jerkiness of many smokers.)

If you are thinking that my assertion that Christina Szele is an Arrogant Jerk is a little over the top, consider the damage done: the incident became such an affair that the pilot made a decision to land in Denver. That takes some serious consideration. Landing a plane where it isn’t supposed to land costs many thousands of dollars. Several hundred people on the plane were no doubt a little bothered by the decision, and I am certain the pilot knew it wasn’t going to be a popular decision.

My personal opinion is that Szele thought this would be a fun publicity stunt. She has been in trouble with the law before, and I’m guessing she wanted a little attention. Well, attention is what she is going to get…

Aside from getting herself good and soused on a plane, and then lighting up mid flight (advertised in the safety video as a ‘federal offense’), she took a successful swing at a flight attendant. Reports indicate she landed a tight-fisted jab on the flight attendant’s face. She let loose with a string of choice words you would more likely hear around an oil derrick, and threw in a couple racial epithets for good measure (the target flight attendant is black). That’s quite a list of bad behaviors all in one episode.  How bad?…

If convicted of these basic charges, Christina Szele becomes eligible to spend as many as 20 years in prison. If a bonus situation befalls her, she will also be awarded a life changing fine of up to $250,000. You could fill your car up a good handful of times with that amount, even at today’s prices.

That was one expensive cigarette. I hope it was unfiltered; I would hate to think any of it was wasted.

This week Omar Sharif joins a list of Arrogant Actors who make millions in the United States, and then turn their venom on the American populace in wide, sweeping generalizations.

Apparently, the Middle East Media Research Institute had a word with Omar and learned that the United States is doomed to fail in Iraq because people like him ‘prefer to go to the neighborhood sheik’ instead of voting in a democratic process. Fine enough, and to each his own. If the people of Iraq would rather continue for another few thousand years in dogmatic servitude, that is fine with me. This is not really my point…

Later in the interview, Omar reportedly said ‘I lived in America for a long time. Only ten percent of all Americans have a passport. In other words; ninety percent of them never left America; they don’t know anything.’

Ahem: They don’t know anything?

I find this to be a remarkably Arrogant and Jerky thing to say. Let’s break it down…

For one, United States Americans live in a very big place. I think it is fair to say that we have members of our national populace who have traveled far and wide, and have learned much about many of the world’s beauty and wonder, without ever leaving our borders. Our nation holds a sample of every type of geography, and so many cultures and ideals it would be hard for one person to discover them all.

Interestingly, many of the comments on this page about passports were from Europeans who use their passports to visit the U.S.A. Can you really blame Americans for not needing to leave a place that most other people want to visit? Does anyone blame the Hawaiians for staying in Hawaii?

To say a person doesn’t know anything simply because he or she doesn’t have a passport is ridiculous. But lets press the issue…

I would find it hard to believe that more than ten or twenty percent of the people of Egypt have a passport. (For the record; Egypt is from whence Omar hails.) I know from personal experience that relatively few of the people of Australia have passports. And I also know that very few Mexicans, Central Americans, or even South Americans have passports. Actual statics are impossible to find on the Internet, but neither could I find any mention of someone calling these people stupid for it. I wouldn’t.

A high percentage of Europeans have passports for the simple reason that you can get to any number of adjacent countries by train in less time than it takes to commute to downtown Manhattan from New Jersey. But most of the world’s population live in places that are not immediately adjacent to another country, and therefore do not need a passport.

My point here? ‘Not having a passport’ is common, and in no way is connected with how smart you are. It is simply a matter of needing to go somewhere. Furthermore; I have met a good handful of people who have passports that couldn’t point out their destination on a globe if you gave them a hint. Seriously.

Finally, and the highest point of exposure for Omar’s Arrogant comment: It would be difficult, if not downright impossible, to determine the number of Americans holding a current passport. The number may exist somewhere, but it isn’t public.

I tried to find the number myself to research this rant, and could find only second-hand information about what percent of Americans hold passports. This guy has done some research, and found multiple stories from good sources claiming percentages from as low as 7% to as high as 25%. The numbers are varied, and even less reliable when you break them down between children and adults; it is proposed that over 34% of U.S. adults hold a passport. Not bad, but does that really tell us anything other than ‘a lot of people are traveling’? And does ‘traveling’ equal ‘knowing something’? No.

My four year old son has a passport. Do you think Omar Sharif is counting him as one of the ’smart ones’? My boy is pretty bright, but come on; he’s only four! And besides, even though he has held an active passport for three years, he has only used it once to travel into Canada. I doubt that added to his intelligence (he was only one year old), although he did get to see Niagara Falls from the good side.

Omar Sharif is an Arrogant Jerk for saying such a thing. He uses bad statistics to press a point that is simply ridiculous in its very nature. It would make as much sense to say that ‘All Egyptians are stupid because they live near sand’. Could that be true, too, Mr. Sharif? The answer is an obvious ‘no’.

Omar is accusing Americans of being limited in their view of the world, while he himself is demonstrating a very narrow view of Americans. He should be so wise; apparently he has a passport.

But as Omar Sharif clearly demonstrates; while holding a passport might make you smarter, it won’t stop you from being an Arrogant Jerk.

If ‘ignorance is bliss’, I believe John Kerry is kicking his heels together while he dances down the street toward the next sunset, whistling Dixie. Either that, or he is a big Arrogant Jerk.

John said today ‘we were basically at peace’ on September 11, 2001. To give him even the slightest bit of credit, I hope he meant before the towers fell. Nevertheless, you would think a senator of the United States would have a better grip on the big picture.

Or perhaps he just forgot about the attack on the USS Cole in Yemeni. Yes, not quite a year before the 9/11 attacks, we were blatantly attacked by Islamic Extremists, who killed seventeen U.S. Navy sailors, and blew a hole the size of a bus in an armored destroyer.

Maybe he wasn’t paying attention in those privileged briefings when the CIA disclosed that Al Qaeda performed a trial run on USS The Sullivans destroyer. This trial run is considered the precursor to the USS Cole incident, and would have been equally devastating if the incompetent bombers hadn’t sunk their own craft during the approach.

And could it be that he is too young to remember the devastating assaults on two U.S. embassies in Africa, just a couple years earlier in late 1998? I don’t think so; the attack killed over 220 people, and injured enough people to fill a small stadium. It is still pretty memorable to me, and I have never been a United States Senator.

And since John Kerry became a senator in 1985, I find it hard to believe he doesn’t remember the first bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993. It was a pretty big deal, with six deaths, over 1,000 injured, and a nation standing amazed before their television sets, wondering how in the world the trade center didn’t come tumbling down after such a blast.

John Kerry explained his remark by stating that, while our nation had been under attack for 10 years running, we weren’t ‘fundamentally at war at the time’ because we technically hadn’t declared that we were at war. He must have gone to school at the same place that Bill Clinton did. I wonder if John Kerry knows what the definition of ‘is’ is.

Does ‘war’ start when you officially declare it? Or when some bunch of jerks attack you and start the fight? Have you ever wondered what they were saying around the pleasant waterways of Pearl Harbor late on December 7, 1941? John Kerry must think they were saying ‘Hey guys, it’s OK; were not really at war…’

Hey John Kerry; wake up and smell the coffee. Then, stare at yourself in the mirror and have a sample of what an Arrogant Jerk looks like. It takes a special kind to forget that our uniformed men and women have died in aggressive attacks against our country during a time that only an Arrogant Jerk could call ‘peaceful’.

With all the natural disasters happening around the world this week, I was waiting for this to happen, and it has. Finally someone has come out to claim that god is angry with us, and that this is his wrath.

Breaking the icy silence from the religious far right is Reverend Erwin Lutzer, a religious Arrogant Jerk who wants us to believe that these acts of weather and plate tectonics were sent from above to punish us, no, wait,… to remind us, no, wait,… to teach us… (there are so many contradictions in this 30-second clip it made my head spin).

Brother Lutzer was interviewed by Neil Cavuto on Fox News in a way that makes me think they knew in advance how ridiculous this guy would sound. Neil is visibly objectionable near the end of the clip; thank goodness.

Erwin Lutzer is clearly off his rocker, and is an Arrogant Jerk of the pious kind for trying to instill fear into the hearts of those who are already down on their luck. Is it really more comforting to believe that god did it to you? I wouldn’t think so. Let me give you my two cents so you understand where I am coming from…

While we often call these happenings ‘Acts of God’ for lack of better classification (’Acts of Mother Earth’ was voted down immediately after we ran the Pagans out of town). These conditions are normal, and have been turning Earthlings on their heads for millions of years. The fact that there are more humans in harm’s way during these more recent times means that more people are affected, and more people can talk about being affected by them.

I’ll stop before I give you the whole nickel’s worth, and try to make sense of why god would choose to speak to us in such a riddle, as opposed to just coming down and saying ‘howdy’. Let’s move on.

Cavuto starts his interview by reminding us that there are ‘fires in Florida, earthquake in China, cyclones in Myanmar and tornados throughout the Midwestern United States’. Yes, it has been a terrible week for a lot of people. More than usual in any given week, bringing world attention to the tragedy and sincere, heartfelt sorrow from those of us more fortunate.

Reverend Lutzer has chosen to rub salt in the wounds and is proclaiming that god has done this to these poorest of people in order to teach us all a lesson. What an Arrogant Jerk. Even Cavuto asks why god would do this to such humble and meek people. After all, aren’t they the ones who are going to inherit the earth?

Reverend Lutzer and his suppositions are ridiculous from a reasonable perspective, and unsupportable even from a theological perspective. There is simply no way to explain why god would do such a thing without twisting and turning and adding a heaping plate of baloney to the mix. This guy is full of himself, and is wielding ‘god’ around in order to show himself off as an authority. This sort of behavior really turns my gut, and should be offensive to anyone who has the slightest consideration for those affected.

He is adding insult to injury in a most Arrogant way. God did this to those poor people in order to teach me a lesson? That just doesn’t make sense no matter how you slice it. Nevertheless, it seems to make sense to our good Reverend Lutzer. In the video, you will see this Arrogant Jerk stand firm in his belief that god has done this. Although coming up with a clear and reasonable explanation is a little more difficult for him.

Reverend Erwin Lutzer, you are an Arrogant Jerk.

PS: Florida authorities have captured a person they believe is responsible for starting the fires in Florida. His name is not ‘God’, for those of you who were holding your breath.

If I am ever to accuse a barroom rapist of being an Arrogant Jerk for slipping a date rape drug into an unsuspecting young girl’s drink and having his way with her (a clear-cut case if there ever was one), then I would be remiss to skip the opportunity to add the leadership of The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Just last week I was defending this exotic religious cult in the name of freedom. I watched as Texas officials marched over 400 young children away from their mothers, and clenched my jaw at what seemed to be a cold-hearted government. ‘The government has no business taking those children from their mothers’ was my mantra. But it has changed. As I argued my point, I admitted to being curious as to why those close to the case, in particular Judge Barbara Walther, would make such an extreme decision. ‘There must be more to the story that we’re not hearing’ I recall observing. There is…

Fox News reported today that of the 53 girls taken from the Yearning For Zion Ranch in Eldorado who are between 14 and 17 years old, 31 are pregnant, or have been. That’s nearly 60 percent, or roughly 120 times the national average.

Hearing this news, and working out the numbers, I was reminded of how I felt when the female voice at NASA calmly suggested that ‘we have a major malfunction’ when the space shuttle Challenger blew into a million pieces over the Florida coast. I was sickened then, and feel the same wave of nausea today. To describe what is going on behind the closed walls of this cult as a ‘major malfunction’ is an understatement. I have turned a 180 in my thinking. Take the kids and hide them away forever. Give them to loving mothers everywhere who will feed and clothe them, love them, and most important of all, defend them against evil, disgusting Arrogant Jerks such as these.

Please understand; this is an equal opportunity crime. The men in this cult should have very bad things done to them for abusing these poor children, and for shaming them into submission in the name of ‘God’. The women, mothers and sisters alike, should also be punished for standing by as this was going on right under their noses.

Some of you will come to the aid of the women because they clearly have been brainwashed. That is sad and unfortunate. I have never been held under duress to this extent, but I do understand the power and control a cult can have over its parishioners. Reason can prevail, and it only takes one moment to say ‘hey, I don’t think that makes sense…’ to get the ball rolling.

Remembering the Jim Jones incident, I have come up with a litmus test for anyone who needs it: If your god wants you to hurt yourself or others, mistreat innocent people, or take advantage of another human at their detriment, you believe in a false god and are being misled by someone who is taking advantage of your gullibility. Amen, and get out.

The evidence clearly shows that the Texas polygamy incident is more than just an isolated case of underage sex; these men are fostering submissive women in a cult atmosphere where risk of eternal damnation is levied for their own sexual gratification.

Warren Jeffs, the ultimate leader of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and his leadership ilk, are bigotrous Arrogant Jerks for brainwashing young girls and treating them like sex slaves. I am sure it is easy to fear the ‘devil’ when he is lying over you in your bed. To think of the crap these people must be telling each other to justify such activity fills me with rage.

I believe in freedom. I believe in freedom for these young girls, too. Have at it Texas; stomp this out before the flames get too high.

From near the bottom of the dregs of society, Frank White of Dallas, Texas, proves to us that you don’t need to be a fat politician or snooty upper class citizen to be an Arrogant Jerk of the worst kind. Yes, Frank, you are a disgusting low life Arrogant Jerk.

Here’s the story…

Apparently, a young man named Andrew Bow, who is one of our uniform-wearing defenders of freedom (a young ROTC student, to be exact), was at a Greyhound bus station waiting for a bus. While there, he experienced some kind of debilitating seizure that put him on the ground and into convulsions. My own sister’s boyfriend died under similar circumstances, so I assure you Mr. Bow was in dire straits, and in need of immediate medical assistance.

Enter Frank White, a 33 year old man with so little capacity for human compassion that it is hard to describe him without literally comparing him to a mollusk. Allegedly, (come on, they’ve got the whole thing on video) Frank thought this would be a good opportunity to rob the young man of his wallet. So he did.

I could not find any information online to indicate whether Frank White tried to lend a hand at any point, but by the accounts I have been able to dig up, he didn’t. He simply walked over to a man in trouble and took his wallet. This is simply disgusting human behavior. I didn’t really want to qualify Frank as an Arrogant Jerk, because in most cases being one implies that there is a sense of superiority on the part of the offending Jerk.

Frank White demonstrates to me that you do not have to be a pious upper statesman to exude Arrogance. Frank’s complete and utter disrespect for human suffering shows that he considers his fellow being to be beneath him. So much so that pain and suffering were given second consideration to scoring a quick buck or two. Literally; our soldier could not have had more than a few bucks in his wallet.

Fortunately, the entire thing was caught on video, and Frank White will get to spend a little time in the slammer for being such a Jerk. Stealing someone’s wallet is a low life crime. Doing it while the victim is in need of medical help deserves some special attention from the courts. This guy needs to do some hard time at a labor camp working for one of those loudmouthed chain gain bosses who thinks he can work a man straight.

It is a shame we have to share our air with these kind of people. I hope Andrew is doing all right.

Ted Turner said in a recent interview with PBS that he has “always suffered from foot-in-the-mouth disease”. Mark this down as one of the few times I can agree with him.

I seriously look forward to a day when I have so much money that reality just doesn’t matter. Of course I could probably just buy some weed on the street corner and achieve the same level of dementia for just a couple of bucks. Get this…

According to Ted, in 30 or 40 years Mother Earth will be eight degrees warmer, and we will all be cannibals because “basically, none of our crops will grow”. Seriously; he said that. With a straight face. I thought I was previewing the Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live. Ted Turner is a Ridiculous Arrogant Jerk.

Don’t worry about being eaten just yet; Ted also explained that most of us will be dead by then. He also suggested that the reason the Earth is warming is because there are “too many people using too much stuff”. The solution he suggests is that we all voluntarily limit the number of children we spawn to “one or two”. Kind of like all those Hollywood tree huggers who voluntarily drive hybrid vehicles… as their third car! Yeah, that seems to be working. But wait, aren’t we jumping the gun here;

Global warming, as scientist are learning, is a seasonal pattern that occurs every century or so. Our Earth has experienced periods of warming before, and also periods of cooling. In fact, evidence is shaping up to show that we are heading into a cooling period as we speak.

And will eight degrees really destroy all our crops? I am pretty sure eight degrees in my high mountain region will actually enable crop production during specific times of the season. I really cannot imagine a world full of cannibals, so I am hoping he is wrong.

Perhaps Ted has been watching too many of those old zombie movies from the Turner Network Archives.

I read more of what Ted had to say in his interview with PBS and was quite surprised at his level of absurdity. He sounds like a guy who has been reading too much conspiracy theory, and believes it. He needs to get out and walk around a bit. Feel the grass, breath the air, spend a couple bucks on one of those Chicago dogs.

We’re still a bit chilly here in the mountains; eight degrees would make things just about right. Rest assured, I am certain that no one will want to eat you come August when temps soar above 100. Extra crispy?

UPDATE: No sooner did I post this than did the BBC publish an interesting article about ‘global warming’. The article, titled Global Temperatures To Decrease, can be found here. Somebody tell Ted, before he gets too hungry.

I believe Heather Mills is such an Arrogant Jerk that she doesn’t comprehend what she is doing to herself.

The Daily Mail (not necessarily a beacon of trust) reports that Heather has now issued a statement demanding that court records be completely revealed. The reason she wants this, is because she feels that the partially revealed records vilify her as, well, an Arrogant Jerk. What she doesn’t realize is that it is her public behavior that vilifies her as an Arrogant Jerk, and nothing in the world will help that. Not even $50 million dollars, apparently.

The really Arrogant thing about her statement, and current rant, is that she is contradicting herself. Blatantly. In her professionally read statement (she didn’t read it herself; she has ‘people’ to do that for her. Glad she is putting the money to good use…), she says:

“With my head held high, I am very glad to be a strong woman and will use my wealth productively and continue my attempts to make a positive difference in this world. My strength and determination to move on and continue the work we started years ago is fortified by your support.”

YaWhah? Let’s get a few things straight Missy: Your head is not ‘held high’, and you are not taking the high road. You are a barking mad dog with no decent purpose. Please let it be and move to a quiet private island and spend some time with your daughter while she still likes you. And what’s all this about ‘my wealth’; come on, it almost sounds like you feel you earned that money. You didn’t. People who have done truly great things for this world will never see that kind of money. You stole it by pretending to be extraordinarily needy. Nice job.

The only ‘difference’ you are making in ‘this world’ is self condemnation. Please stop, this isn’t a good idea. We actually thought you were kind of cute once. Not any more. We actually enjoy publishing awful pictures of you to emphasize the point that you have become a raging mad dog (note the one on this post).

And let’s not get her wrong, people; the ‘work’ that she is so inspired to continue is not an admirable effort to save the children or the whales. No, the ‘work’ that she is referring to here is her attack on Sir Paul and her effort to get the courts to reveal the rest of the trial documents. Oh, but in the same breath she is quick to note that “As the record shows, I had no wish for these proceedings to be made public, but releasing them in part is particularly unfair“.

Probably. But I am not sure releasing the rest of the docs is going to help her cause. We already think she is an Arrogant Jerk. Does she now think that when we learn about when Paul called her an awful so-and-so way back when, that our hearts will melt and we will suddenly feel sorry for her and demand that Paul cough up another $200 million to match her original request? I don’t think so.

Whatever Paul called her, if he did at all, it is likely that we will all think he was being nice.

In a book about how to get the rest of the world against you, you might find a chapter featuring Heather Mills and her angst-ridden tirade against our beloved Beatle, Sir Paul McCartney.

The case study would start with a too-short courting period, followed by a fairy tale wedding and equally short marriage to one of the single most eligible widowers of our time. Then, and as if to throw salt on the wounds, the jilted woman would begin demanding absurd amounts of money and recompense for spending four miserable years living a life of luxury.

As many of us did, I grew up on Paul McCartney’s music. I can recite almost every Beatles song, and whenever I hear a Wings song, I am flush with memories of my adolescence. Pleasant ones. And so for this reason, I and many McCartney fans are voicing our disgust for what we collectively regard as an obvious case of an Arrogant Gold Digging Jerk gone wild.

No one can say we didn’t see it coming. In fact I knew things were awry when I heard somewhere that Heather couldn’t personally name a single Beatles song just prior to the wedding. Not even a hard working gold digger, she didn’t even bother to be remotely interested in what makes Paul The Walrus.

For several reasons, people are pointing to Sir Paul as The Fool on the Hill. And to some extent I might agree. But to his credit, and with a dash of empathy, we have to recognize that he was still ailing after the loss of his lifelong love, Linda, and he may not have been thinking straight. May Linda rest in peace, if that is even possible while this is going on.

Heather Mills finally had her day in court today, and walked away with about 50 million dollars. Not bad for four years’ work. If she lives to be 90, she will have to spend more than a million dollars a year to run it dry. So you would think that she would have little to complain about. Oh no; she apparently had plenty to complain about.

Reporters were reportedly appalled to hear her rant on and on after the court handed her a free ticket to ride. They even counted the number of words (about 33) until she mentioned her work with ‘charities’ (a running joke aimed at her propensity for self adulation in the name of the needy). She certainly didn’t seem grateful, and took the moment to make sure everyone considered her the victim.

So I will hereby recognize her as the ‘Arrogant Other’ for being a Jerk to Sir Paul, and for drawing the ire of everyone after droning on in complaint while tucking 50 million dollars in her purse. Not one penny of which she actually deserves. Sure, she says it’s ‘for Beatrice’, the daughter they had together. Yet, in the same breath she mentions that nannies are pretty expensive these days.

I can’t think of a single mother who doesn’t dream of having a mere tenth of what Heather just received, longing for the chance to spend every lasting moment with the children. The fact that Heather Mills keeps mentioning a nanny makes me think that Beatrice was just a pawn in her bid to make a buck.

Yes, Heather Mills is the ‘other woman’ to Linda McCartney, who’s love and devotion continues to serve as an inspiration against the antithesis we know as Heather’s worldly example of marital convenience and charitable pandering.

Linda could name a Beatles song or two. Let’s hope his next love can, too.

Heidi Fleiss calls ‘Client 9′ an ‘Arrogant Jerk’, and so do I.

‘Client 9′, it is presumed, is actually New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. Spitzer is rumored to be resigning today over a scandal involving himself, a string of high-priced prostitutes, and the ethical backbone of a slug.

To catch you up; Heidi Fliess, the former Madam, is held up as a subject matter expert in an unsealed investigation into prostitution spanning from New York to Washington DC. ‘Client 9′ is a person named in the court documents, presumably to hide his (or her) identity as a public figure. Currently speculation is running wild that ‘Client 9′ is really Governor Spitzer.

Based on court descriptions of ‘Client 9′, Fliess is on the record saying that she knows this type of client well, and that he is an Arrogant Jerk. I agree with Ms. Fliess, but for different reasons…

Governor Spitzer is an Arrogant Jerk for two fairly serious reasons: First, for cheating on his wife. Silda Wall Spitzer gets extra credit for standing by her man in his hour of desperation, even though I am sure there is plenty of well deserved venom being spewed behind the curtain. Cheating happens every day, but that doesn’t make it right, and it is an awful thing to do to someone who has stood by you while you climb the political ladder.

The second reason is equally troublesome and deceitful; Governor Spitzer has built his reputation on ‘cleaning up this town’. How can you clean up this town when you are literally in bed with the ‘enemy’?

I use the word ‘enemy’ softly, and still have a hard time understanding why prostitution is illegal in the first place. But it is, and that makes the governor a two faced Arrogant Jerk. Like so many evangelists and politicians before (and around) him, Spitzer was preaching one thing from the pulpit, and doing another in the closet.

He has sent people to jail for doing exactly what he does. Talk about a conflict of interest. I can just hear him in the break room saying ‘Hey judge, when you send this guy up the river for visiting a prostitute, see if you can get her number for me. …I, uh,… want to do a little research for my next public speech…’

Great job, Governor Spitzer, you are an Arrogant Jerk. Even Heidi Fleiss thinks so.
