Wretched Excess
The article from which this comes is in the Styles section of today’s New York Times. Since it doesn’t appear in the online edition, I have laboriously copied the following out by hand. That way you’ll know that at least one person is thinking straight about this whole Eliot Mess.
Bob Beleson, 58, an independent beverage marketer who lives in Manhattan, said that the discussions he had with several buddies condemned the governor not for his sins but for his excess. “These guys that pay $4,300 for a hooker are the same guys that pay $9 for an espresso,” he said. “They’re ruining it for everyone else.”
