Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt, the legendary journalist who in 2007 helped expose Sen. David Vitter’s rendezvous with multiple escorts, has some harsh words for Gov. Eliot Spitzer.

“It is matters like these that brings hypocrisy to the forefront of American politics,” Flynt said in a statement issued on Monday afternoon. ”Although I didn’t have anything to do with his outing, I wish him well.”

It is notable that Spitzer is a Democrat, since some critics of Flynt’s focus on Vitter’s misdeeds had said Flynt had pursued a Republican sex witch hunt. Flynt has always maintained that he wishes to expose political hypocrisy in all forms.

It was revealed earlier on Monday that Spitzer last month participated in a prostitution ring called the Emperors Club, but had cracked down on prostitution rings when he was attorney general of New York.
