The Hypocrisy Hall of Shame

Eliot Spitzer
Jaws dropped in March when the New York Times identified holier-than-thou New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer as Client 9 of a big-bucks prostitution ring. Wasn’t Spitzer, 49, the white knight who vowed to restore ethics to Albany? The guy who, as state attorney general, routed out Wall Street corruption? The same crusading prosecutor who only years earlier had busted up prostitution rings? Indeed it was. Spitzer resigned, the investigation continues, and behavioral psychologists gain a textbook case of hypocrisy.
