David Paterson Blames the Police for Making Him Come Clean on His Misuse of Campain Funds and Our Taxdollars
There was a very amusing story in the New York Post yesterday about Governor David Paterson blaming the State Police for forcing him to tell everyone about his numerous indiscretions.
Here’s clip from the article. A quote from Paterson.
“I was hearing these outrageous rumors about myself, and I decided to tell my own story before I had to respond to them.”
Since the rumors weren’t rumors (they’re actually true) why should we believe that right after Spitzer was laid low by his own scandal, Paterson only came clean because he claims the cops were going to spill the beans?
What Paterson should have said was:
After what happened to my boss, I knew it would be only a matter of time before people found out that I was inappropriately using taxdollars and campaign funds to pay for hotel rooms for me and my mistress.
But it’s way easier to blame it on the man and those mean and nasty profiling cops when you get caught misusing funds.
Do all the drugs you want, I could care less. But using our tax money and your political contributions illegally is just wrong.
Blaming the men and women in law enforcement just drives a bigger wedge between them and the public which helps no one. Now we know how the “No Snitching” campaigns get started. The regular folks are just following the lead of their Democrat elected officials.

Isn’t that what the police are suppose to do? Look into crimes? Last time I heard drugs were illegal. Sorry stampede, I have to disagree with you. I don’t think our elected officials should be doing drugs, or using prostitutes.
I am surprised the State police had time. I thought they were too busy keeping an eye on Joe Bruno.
