Spitzer's Behavior Shocking, But Personal
The Current Discussion: New York State governor Eliot Spitzer admits he hired a prostitute. Should people care, and why?
In a free society, sex between consenting adults should be their business and theirs alone. On the other hand, in a free society people must also be free to advocate norms of behavior for those in public life. So, while I have no objection whatsoever to Spitzer's activities, I will not deny critics the right to be shocked.
