Eliot Spitzer Tests America's Moral Compass

by Staff
March 18, 2008

Sacramento, California (christiansunite.com) - Widespread disgust over the alleged adultery and prostitution involvement of Democratic New York Governor Eliot Spitzer shows the America still has a moral compass, according to West Coast pro-family organization Campaign for Children and Families.

In reaction to the federal complaint implicating Spitzer in a prostitution ring, Campaign for Children and Families President Randy Thomasson said, "Character matters. A person's 'private life' matters. What is inside eventually shows on the outside. The reason that America is disgusted with the alleged prostituting lifestyle of Eliot Spitzer is because America's moral compass is still working. Fortunately, the United States has not forgotten how to blush."

Despite some viewing Spitzer as a "moral authority," noting he had instituted a "moral code" to clean up Wall Street and fight organized crime, Spitzer apparently has no moral code in sexual matters. More than any governor, Spitzer has tried to destroy the man-woman marriage definition and to license homosexual "marriages." As Attorney General, he harassed pro-life crisis pregnancy centers.

On Monday, as the alleged prostitution involvement was breaking, Spitzer was scheduled to speak to New York's largest pro-abortion organization, Family Planning Advocates, which supports unlimited tax-funded abortions, without regard to a girl's age or the number of tax-funded abortions in a calendar year.

"Spitzer has embraced anti-family public policies since day one," said Thomasson. "Is it any surprise that his so-called 'private' policies are also destructive to his own family? His immoral practices have made him unfit for public office. It's sad that his wife stood next to him, instead of distancing herself to show her real hurt and disapproval. As Dina Matos McGreevey would tell you, this 'stand by your political man' act is a sad, choreographed charade."

Quotes about character and the public trust:

"When a man assumes a public trust, he should consider himself as public property."
-- Thomas Jefferson, Rayner's "Life of Jefferson," p. 356

"...the liberty of conscience hereby secured shall not be so construed as to excuse acts of licentiousness..."
-- Constitution of the State of New York, Article I, Section 3

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion....Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
-- President John Adams, October 11, 1798, in a letter to the officers of the First Brigade of the Third Division of the Militia of Massachusetts

CAMPAIGN FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES (CCF) is a leading West Coast nonprofit, nonpartisan organization representing children and families. CCF stands for marriage
and family, parental rights, the sanctity of human life, religious freedom,
and back-to-basics education.
