Iranian American Forum, July 28 2013

Bill Maher invited three guests for his Real Time panel on Friday, July 26 2013. All three participants in the show had one thing in common: history of pandering.

The first invitee was Eliot Spitzer, the former New York state Governor whose prostitution scandal has forced him to resign in 2008.

Upon his resignation, he confessed that he paid up to $80k for call girls over the period of several years while he was Attorney General and later as the Governor.

The second contributor to the show was Bob Ney, the former US congressman who spent 18 month in prison for his role in Jack Abramoff’s corruption scandal. During the plea bargain with prosecutors, he also admitted to bribery from two businessmen in London who worked with the Iranian regime.

The third guest was Reza Aslan, a member of NIAC’s advisory board who actively involved in numerous fundraising for this lobby group that many Iranians believe pursuing Iranian regime’s interests in Washington.

Participation of three corrupt figures in a panel with the main topic of Anthony Weiner’s sexting scandal brands Bill Maher’s Real Time last Friday an exceptional show.
