Let's Face It

Let’s Face it …Eliot Spitzer is the hottest topic in blogworld…you couldn’t write a juicier story than the Spitzer scenario unless you were Danielle Steel or maybe Shakespeare…sometimes I confuse their bodies of work. The rise and fall of Spitzer could easily be compared to a Shakespearean tragedy…sadly written and played by Spitzer himself. The 2 faces of Eliot Spitzer…

Speaking of Faces…you can tell a lot by them. During the news conferences, I couldn’t take my eyes off his wife, Silda’s Face “standing by” the man who had betrayed her. Even through her stoic Facial expression you could see her pain. One reporter remarked on how much her Face had aged in a couple of days…Hello knucklehead, do you need to beat a woman when she’s already down?

Then there is the SOB Eliot’s Face…It has arrogance and haughtiness written all over it. The words coming out of his mouth were saying “I’m sorry”, but his Facial expression was saying, “Damn, I got caught.” Spitzer…the Face of smugness even in the Face of disaster.

Let’s Face it …sometimes the most self-righteous people have the most to hide…so if someone is standing on top of some soapbox condemning everyone else…we might wonder what they are hiding…and how many faces they really have.

Let’s Face it…it probably wasn’t pretty when Spitzer had to Face his wife and family. When Eliot and Silda …are alone…behind closed doors…Face to Face…I hope she lets him have it…with both barrels. It has been questioned as to why she would “stand by her man.” There are numerous reasons…shock, love, her teenage daughters, but whatever way Silda chooses to Face this ordeal, should be up to her…we shouldn’t question her.

You can’t judge a person until you have walked a mile in their shoes. Let’s Face it…her shoes are shoes…no woman would ever want. And Spitzer has to Face himself in the mirror every day.
