Weiner's Back

Why do you think she cares if he does a little on line flirting? It isn't a good old fashion affair that people don't care about but still.

This wasn't a little flirting. This was hard core sex talk, "Now the next thing I'm going to you is...." He offered to buy this woman a condo in Chicago. The photo was not of the previous type, his junk covered by a towel or in undies. It was a photo of his completely naked penis.

That is serious flirting but still flirting.

Report about overweight cats with the title "pussy galore" thats important news unlike a mere republican senator indicted for corruption. Got to keep things in perspective.

I wouldn't vote for David Vitter, but he stood for reelection after his scandal broke and was duly reelected. Anthony Weiner is doing the same thing- asking the voters for a second chance. The major difference that I can see is that it looks like NYC voters might have more sense than Louisiana voters.

We can only hope. He ain't getting my vote!

I don't think I remember a time when our three major city newspapers (Times, News & Post) ever totally agreed on anything - except this. All three say that Weiner should step down. Add to that The Wall Street Journal & El Diario (largest Spanish paper).

The New York Times condemnation of Weiner was of particular interest since the paper seemed to love Weiner, giving him and Huma the cover of the magazine a few months ago with a nine page fluff piece.

I would think the writers of the fluff piece would be especially irate with Weiner, since now everyone knows they're chumps.

You really hope that Weiner wins because it would become a running embarassment for the Democrats, don't you?

I've never been very sympathetic towards people claiming to have a "sex addiction" or "problem with porn", like, say, Tiger Woods. The diagnosis seems to conveniently pop up right after the "addict" gets caught with his pants down, literally.

But the more I've been thinking about Weiner (!), the more sympathetic I've become. It's gone from a hilariously satisfying takedown to an amusing situation to just shaking my head, and finally, now, just kinda sad. The NYC voters never should've encouraged him with their support. He never came fully clean about the first round of incidents, and continued to lie about them during his "rehabilitation" period prior to this run. That should've clued people in to the fact that he hadn't fixed or resolved anything. IMO, the guy just has nowhere else to go in life - one of the problems with having a class of career politicians.

Anyways, to answer your question in all seriousness: I don't want him to continue the race, much less win. I think there comes a point where these things reflect badly on all Americans, not just half of us.
 
Sorry, not seeing the"respect her choice" thing with respect to the wife. The guy is scummy as all hell and is dragging her and her family down with him. And the cock pics are the least of what I am referring to.

I also tell women not to use Internet Explorer or talk on their cell phone while they drive, just the same as men in those situations.

I don't see how it is respectful to her or the women and girls watching to remain silent on the sick charade.

I think you're right and I wouldn't be surprised if they do a more responsible follow up once this is all over.

One group of people in the US love Weiner;The Comedians. He has given them hours of easy material.

Some of the excuses his supporters are making for him on Newspaper Comments section are just pathetic.

Yes, Huma Abedin not dumping her husband for naughty text messages is exactly the same as passing numerous laws regulating and limiting womens' reproductive choices. :rolleyes:

Not just reproductive choices, either, but feminine medical choices in general. By closing the clinics, they are stopping millions of women from getting cancer screenings and other preventive medical needs.

I would never vote for Weiner on the grounds that anybody dumb enough to get caught a second time is too dumb to hold public office.

I love the double standard on display in this thread;if this were a conservative Republican a lot of Weiner's supporters here would be leading the lynch mob.

Only if Weiner was a "family values" type of candidate. I don't get why the Republicans are all up in arms over Weiner, but didn't say anything about Sanford's return. Oh, I know know why. It's ok if you're a Republican... to break any law or moral standards.

I'd hate to make a living by fluffing Weiner.
