Hookers and lawyers cost the same

There aren't that many high priced hookers. And of these, a subset isn't even worth it. A good lawyer gets you something good or gets you out of something bad. A good hooker is like a good hamburger. No? They don't care about you. Just, "pay me." Move on.

I know nothing lower than a woman who is interested in you because of money. No respect whatsoever. Shallower than shallow.

pfft, lawyers are more expensive. Seriously who'd be dumb enough to leave a paper-trail on this sort of stuff. When you get elected to office, does some switch in your brain turn off like "can't happen to me...." same shiz, different day

Like the new Gov that is moving up from Lt. Gov. They asked, "have you had any dealings or knowledge of the call-girl trade?", the first blind and black Gov of NY to be paused for a long time...and said:

"...only the lobbyists". New York is in great hands now.

And as the former governor has taught us, when you're buying discretion, it's always better to pay in cash.

discretion : high-end hooker :: not guilty verdict : high-priced attorney

This is really just an example of news media telling people what they should care about. It's exactly the same as Larry Craig or Bill Clinton. People shouldn't be surprised that politicians frequent prostitutes, seek gay hookups, or date the intern; regular people do these things, so why expect anything different from politicians?

Oh, right, CNN and friends are in the business of making something out of nothing. "Politicians like regular people" doesn't sell news.

Another apt comparison for a prostitute: the trophy wife. A hooker that lives with you.

While the hourly rate for a lawyer and hooker may be comparable, there's a notable difference in how each fucks you.
