"Spitzer to give ethics lecture at Harvard"
I don't know where to start.
What does this say about Harvard; America; society in general?...

Clemente Lisi reports in the New York Post:
"Disgraced former Gov. Eliot Spitzer will give a lecture Thursday on ethics at Harvard University -- something that has angered the madam who once supplied him with high-priced hookers.
'I am greatly intrigued as to what Mr. Spitzer could contribute to an ethical discussion when as Chief Executive Law Enforcement Officer of NY he broke numerous laws for which he has yet to be punished,' Kristin Davis wrote in a protest letter to Professor Lawrence Lessig at Harvard's Edmond J. Safra Foundation Center for Ethics.
'As Attorney General he went around arresting and making examples out of the same escort agencies he was frequenting.'
Spitzer, 50, was forced to resign as governor in 2008 after it was revealed that he was the client of a prostitution ring at the center of a federal investigation."
