Should we reserve some room for second thoughts on Spitzer . . . ??? ????
Governor Spitzer has long battled with the former comptroller for New York States Pension Fund, Alan G. Hevesi, who holds duel Israeli-American citizenship, and prompted a US Federal Probe that charged Comptroller Hevesi of using the over $100 billion of funds entrusted to him for the personal benefit of his friends and family, and to which Mr. Hevesi pled guilty for and paid a $5,000 fine.

The focus of Governor Spitzer’s investigation, these reports state, revolve around the growing crisis embroiling the Carlyle Group as it nears total collapse and is facing insolvency due to Larry Silverstone’s withdrawal of over $14 billion from the embattled groups coffers, and which could see the loss to New York States already troubled massive pension fund of over $10 billion.

1. thank you, thank you
As soon as I heard Andrea Mitchell (Mrs. Greenspan) express white-faced concern about Spitzer leaving his tasks as point man for the financial crises, I wondered about the Carlyle Group and any possible involvement.

Here it is.

They took him out at a certain time. Why right now?

3. Silverstein...."we decided to pull it" regarding WTC 7
not Silverstone.
Major 911 insider.
Spitzer was also said to be investigating 911 put options from Sept.11
wtc7 3rd building to collapse into its own footprint in near free fall speed,not hit by a plane and a few small fires and slight exterior damage.
911 was an inside job.

4. Evidently Spitzer has shown "buddy/buddy-ness" with Silverstein and
his pursuit of the double WTC payoff --
and turned from citizen recommendations that he investigate 9/11 ---


Sooooo . . I find that all really disappointing ---
and perhaps further proof of Spitzer's stupdity ---
or his inclination to support those who contribute to his campaigns?

And, especially when the "collapse" of the WTC building #7 would seem to have been of intense
interest re its documents to prosecutors and corrupt banks --- !!!
