Oh, it's this new teevee showPOTENTIAL SEASON TWO CAST MEMBER? “Gov. David Paterson’s 15-year-old son was arrested for possession of a stolen credit card after cops caught him shooting dice near his Upper West Side school, law enforcement sources confirm.” A textbook case of “boys will be boys,” to be sure. Hopefully he bought some cool shit before they caught him. [NYDN]

Easy defense. “My dad gave it to me; he’s blind as hell and never knows whether he’s giving me one of his cards or one of somebody else’s.”

hiphophitler January 12, 2010 at 6:40 pm

And if that doesn’t work, try the “my dad’s the fucking governor, asshole!” defense.

Sharkey January 12, 2010 at 6:44 pm

That’s what they’re calling it these days, “shooting dice”? Come on.

germansteel January 12, 2010 at 6:45 pm

That’s a hard core gambler who, at age 15, is putting his wagers on a credit card. Although, if it was stolen, that makes it a little better, but still.

Extemporanus January 12, 2010 at 6:47 pm

Fucking kids nowadays, putting their illegal bets on plastic!

What’s next?! Three-stock monte?

“Earlier today, Governor Paterson’s son was taken into the 20th precinct and subsequently released to his parents. The Governor and the First Lady ask that their privacy is respected during this personal time.”

Ahaha talk about waving a red cape in front of a bull. They’d have been better off claiming it was some other Governor Paterson’s kid.

[re=493561]germansteel[/re]: [re=493564]Extemporanus[/re]: I totally pulled a Paterson.

Way Cool Larry January 12, 2010 at 6:50 pm

at least he’s light-skinned and doesn’t speak in a negroid dialect…

Suds McKenzie January 12, 2010 at 6:56 pm

“shooting dice”? Is he a Jet or a Shark?

betterDeadThanRed January 12, 2010 at 7:14 pm

At least he’s “not into drugs” or at least not arrested for that.

shortsshortsshorts January 12, 2010 at 7:24 pm

They didn’t end up charging him with anything. If justice exists, anywhere, Little Patterson will be arrested immediately for some reason.

Escape Goat Nation January 12, 2010 at 7:25 pm

I bet he calls the English teacher Daddy-O

And since we’re on the subject, I did watch an episode of, “Jersey Shore” and I can attest to the fact that all Italians behave like that. Well they all behave like that until they join the Mafia or marry a member of the Mafia. I lived in Connecticut and worked in New York for 10 years and have first hand knowledge of the ways of Italians.

DustBowlBlues January 12, 2010 at 7:53 pm

How can New York be so weirdly fucked? Besides that whole terror attack two-fer, Eliot Spitzer was such a hard ass on the Wall Street dickwads, who knew he’d be a totally fucked up (and fucked) Governor? And that the Lt. Governor would be so inept, he ranks up there with Oklahoma’s own Cowboy Pink Williams (true, that. He had his name legally changed) as most ludicrous lt. ever?

And that he would appoint that lame little woman to Clinton’s senate seat? A lady so lame that Harold Ford would forget he’s from Tennessee and can’t run for senate in New York but would anyway, because he’s speaks well and is light skinned and she is lame.

What is wrong with you people on the east coast? Conn gives us Lieberwhine, and New York’s state and national politics is totally fucked up.

bago January 12, 2010 at 8:06 pm

Given Patterson’s appearances on SNL, I would think that he’s not really a fan of…
New Jersey!

Veritas78 January 12, 2010 at 8:19 pm

“Shooting dice”? How quaint. If only all the kids did that. He could have been shooting skeet.

Hopey dont play that game January 12, 2010 at 8:47 pm

I’d say this guy was just another well-connected, douche but a douche actually serves a purpose.

Radiotherapy January 12, 2010 at 8:53 pm

Let’s just hope they weren’t loaded dice….these kids today.

rocktonsammy January 12, 2010 at 9:28 pm

I’m sure daddy never seen this coming.

Veritas78 January 12, 2010 at 9:36 pm

There goes his internship at Goldman Sachs.

They liked the dice part, it was the getting-caught.

Mr Blifil January 12, 2010 at 9:43 pm

Cops caught him “shooting dice?” Was he down in the sewer with a bunch of guys in zoot suits singing “Luck Be a Lady Tonight?”

“Daddy I got cider in my ear…”

lawrenceofthedesert January 12, 2010 at 9:56 pm

If the credit card were Spitzer’s, I’d like the story a lot. In real life; if the NY Daily News prints only the names of juvenile offenders who are offspring of pols that Rupert doesn’t like, they should be ashamed and castigated. What’s their policy regarding juvie offenders?

You really would think his father would keep an eye on him.

Speed Ball January 12, 2010 at 11:12 pm

Shooting DICE? What ever happened to normal private school activities, like shooting china cat heroin and snorting massive cocaine lines? Shooting DICE? This is not the new york I know.

El Pinche January 12, 2010 at 11:13 pm

Hahahaha , feast your good eyes on human failure:

Watch Billo bite Palin’s silver dollar nipples oh so gently. The mixture of stupid and Billo’s verbal falafel banging actually made my nipples hard.

BUT even Oreilly knows she’s only capable of being the Teabagger candidate (not the GOP ticket).

Maybe he can enroll in the “Scared Straight” program, featuring a talk from Ashy Larry.

SayItWithWookies January 12, 2010 at 11:36 pm

Oh, that Paterson kid — he’s the eel’s eyebrows. I saw him and a flapper in the rumble seat of a flivver pulling up in front of the speakeasy the other day — and they weer doin’ the Lindy ’till morning at the Cotton Club. Well gotta scram — 23-skidoo and don’t take any wooden nickels.

[re=493568]Way Cool Larry[/re]: His dialect is distinctly Jewish.

SayItWithWookies January 12, 2010 at 11:55 pm

[re=493652]El Pinche[/re]: Oh my goodness. Did you notice the part where O’Reilly plays the clip of Steve Schmitt describing how he was called in to assist with Palin’s debate prep? Bill asks her about whether it wasn’t going well and Palin (around 3:41) says “I think he’s basing this on an anonymous source.” What?! Schmitt’s giving his firsthand account. Even O’Reily must’ve felt like a big sissy letting that slide.

It also seems he has a quiet contempt for her. But I think after a couple more of her appearances there’s going to be some backstage fireworks. First, Bill doesn’t like her — my guess is that it’s partly because she’s a terrible speaker and second he feels genuinely threatened by her. And she thinks she’s a brilliant speaker who ought to have her own show 24/7. So the evolution of this little dialectic ought to be very entertaining.

CanadianBacon January 13, 2010 at 12:02 am

Shooting dice? I call BS. Well, okay maybe if he was doing it on a Wii or Playstation. I can’t believe any self-respecting teenager would actually undertake any real physical activity that didn’t involve physical violence.
He certainly has a future in the financial community since he has already learned to work wth someone else’s money.
As far as Gov. Patterson, he won’t be the first parent to turn a blind eye to his son’s activities.

schvitzatura January 13, 2010 at 12:05 am

Cee-lo fo, fiav, seeix! Albanysonnyboi in da hizzy!

El Pinche January 13, 2010 at 12:36 am

[re=493660]SayItWithWookies[/re]: I’m ashamed that I enjoyed that clip a little too much. The clip said more about BillO than Palin. Yes, so much slipped by him, and it was quite obvious (if you know the background which you know he does). It’s kind of sad to see that Big Bad BillO is nothing but Ailes’ little bitch.

SayItWithWookies January 13, 2010 at 1:15 am

[re=493664]El Pinche[/re]: Well he deserves to be called the worst kind of shill for letting the “anonymous source” thing slide — I mean, if it hadn’t been Sarah Palin I would’ve said she laid such a huge egg just to dare him to fuck with her. But I doubt Sarah would ever make herself look inept on purpose, even as bait — even assuming her deviousness could outrun her natural instinct for ineptness, which is doubtful.

Y’know, I wonder if she’s being foisted on Bill because he’s been a little bit the voice of reason on Fox lately (I’m too lazy to look, but I swear I’ve seen at least two different segments in the last week or so where he’s reined in some of the crazier righties) and Sarah is sort of his counterbalance. And now he just has to sit there and let her gush random nonsense out of her collection of emailed WorldNetDaily articles her aunt Betty sent her twice a week. I’ll bet that’s some pre-Vatican-II purgatory for Bill.

[re=493660]SayItWithWookies[/re]: [re=493652]El Pinche[/re]: Heh. Katie Couric > Bill O’Reilly.

Softballs for the new Faux commentator. Got to hand it to loofa Bill, he knows how to keep Rupert Murdoch mollified and he’s doing his best not to tear down the Palin-Fox franchise, such as it is.

I hope Glenn Beck says something inappropriately romantic to her when he gets his turn. He’s the wild card.

El Pinche January 13, 2010 at 1:56 am

[re=493666]SayItWithWookies[/re]: [re=493667]Lascauxcaveman[/re]: As much as I would enjoy a potential combination of crazies on the same show (Beck, Palin, and Malkin), I don’t know if I can stomach Palin’s fakey American common people bullshit.

Sorry Wonkette for bringing the Palin. I’m just fresh out of blind jokes. I’m sure Patterson kid bought a Zhu Zhu pet or something with the loot.

Ducksworthy January 13, 2010 at 11:49 am

[re=493660]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Billo’s already been dethroned by Beck from his title as the King of Krap. Not this snowbilly comes along an threatens to … to. Do you know that Laplander women castrate Reindeer with their teeth. You can see they were both having castration fantasies one happy one not so much, also.
