New Yorkers should be ashamed for electing this scrawny little runt of a wiener. You said it, limousine liberals, these people are pathetic and how they manahe to get elected is a mystery to me. This little runt can’t answer a simple question because he’s ENTITLED and HOW DARE anybody question him about this while he’s trying to do the work of the people right? Little anthony wiener got caught with his underoos down and and now he’s backpeddling in classic clinton style. This id the little runt who racked up over three grand in unpaid parking tickets for parking in handicaped zones, fire hydrants, you name it bacause the little runt is drunk with power. You people in New York better wake up and toss this little trerp, I can’t stand the sight of the weasel!

Let’s not forget about Charlie Rangle and my favorite, Chuck Shuemer. It always amazes me that the people of harlem constantly complain about the schools and their neighborhood, but when election day rolls around they always vote for the same people (Rangle has been in his seat for FORTY YEARS!!). One week later, they complain how bad things are in their neighborhood.
I wanted to see W appoint Chuck Shuemer for supreme court. It would have been fun to either watch his head explode from short circuit or see him vote against himself (to quote Groucho Marx, “what ever it is, I’m against it”)

Actually, assuming the picture is of Rep Weiner, it would be conclusive evidence that he is not a putz.

A schmuck maybe, but not a putz.

Photoshop can be an amazing piece of software.

Vet, the sarcasm was practically dripping off my computer screen in shazam’s post. Basically saying that if Rep Weiner is telling the truth, then a very serious infraction occurred and a thorough investigation must be conducted. I wouldn’t worry about taxpayer money though in this one, within a day or two they will determine the putz accidentally did the Twitter equivalent of hitting “reply all” to an email and he basically showed the world the kind of guy he really is. A true blue Dem to the core.

There are Republicans in NY?

cathy, cathy, cathyi: You really must stop hiding behind the Democrat mindset (and try some reality for a change). WHAT ABOUT CHRIS LEE!!! He was a US Congressman (Republican) who was forced out of office for sending a picture of his BARE CHEST (not against the law, as opposed to a “member at attention” (which IS against the law).

What about US Congressman Mark Foley (Republican) who was forced out of office because HE SENT AN EMAIL to a man who was over 21! Compare that to US Congressman (Democrat) Gerry Studds WHO REMAINED IN OFFICE AFTER HAVING SEX WITH A 17 YEAR OLD MALE INTERN!!!!

How about US Senator Bob Packwood (Republican) who was forced out because he kissed and fondled middle-aged women in his office! Compare that to US President Bill Clinton (Democrat) who was FINED but allowed to stay in office after numerous affairs (including unwanted) and forcing his wife and daughter to wait for Easter dinner while he “serviced” an intern, downstairs, in the Oval Office, who was YOUNGER than his daughter!!!

What about US Congressman Mel Reynolds who had sex with a 16 year old (dozens of times) and was sent to prison? What about Jesse Jackson’s “love child?” What about John Edwards? And his love child, and his girlfriend, Rielle Hunter? What about JFK and RFK sharing Marilyn Monroe? Or JFK and Sam Giancana sharing Judith Campbell Exner? What about the master of them all, Old Joe Kennedy who brought his Hollywood girlfriend to the family dinner talble and forced his wife to share the family dinner and the family home (when she slept in the house). (Don’t worry, Rose got even after his stroke!)

It sounds like your upset over the fact that a Democrat isn’t getting a free pass from the media roughly 70% of whom self identify as Democrats. You might as well give up the insinuations of media bias. The fact is he could have defused this entire story simply by denying that the photo is him or that he sent it and calling for an investigation. Instead he halfway denies it, refuses to say whether or not the photo is him, and doesn’t even call for an investigation into how his account was supposedly hacked (because he doesn’t want a criminal charge of filing a false report and obstruction of justice). It’s not unreasonable for people to expect their elected officials to behave more maturely than the average 6th grader.

har har

In your second paragraph, you say that Republicans stay in office no matter the allegation, and in your fifth paragraph you reference the most recent example of a Republican resigning from office. I understand that you libs are too scattered to be consistent throughout the echo chamber, but is it too much to ask that you be consistent in a single post? Really?

Dawn…you have selective memory.

The difference between Repubs and Dems is that Dems tolerate this kind of behavior (and worse), but the Repubs usually force their miscreants out of office.

As to Mr Weiner…couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

Stop drinking Koolaid!
a simple question with a simple response.
Did you send the picture? yes or NO
BTW, if he believed that hiis account has been hacked, should he report to the FBI? He know that filing a false report is a crime.

gee Dawn who accused Weiner of anything. I can say though that if pelosi was still speaker their would be hearings if this guy was a republican, and you would be calling for it. It is a federal offense to hack an email or twitter etc. account, especially a federal official. Since hacking is serious the state or the feds have an obligation to investigate and find the hacker. And wouldn’t this be the perfect way for you stalinist types to finally nail Breitbart and put him in jail.Weiner made the accusation of hacking so it is up to him to pursue it. No one is charging Weiner with a crime. He will not pursue it because he fbi could identify the ip of the sender in about ten minutes, and I bet the address would be Weiner’s phone. Again the progressives get out progressed,because that is what your all about especially pompous Weiner.

“Whether it’s a picture of him or not shouldn’t really matter if he didn’t send it. ”

Dawn, get your partisan mindset out of the way …. if Weiner had that picture on his computer, one must wonder why? And as far as being hacked, that is on its face a lie.

He is simply too unimportant for anyone to hack his accounts.

Really, Breitbart is a “known liar”? Please give an example or are you just one of the many left wing spineless bomb throwers? You know state it enough times and it becomes gospel. That sort of spineless, lying bomb thrower.
Just because you do not like what is being reported does not make it a lie.

Heh – you said “root.”
When did politicians earn the right to be believed when they deny something embarrassing? This is not a court of law, it is the court of public opinion. People are entitled to disbelieve politicians whenever they like. And the fact that Wiener can’t tell whether it’s his picture or not tells us he photographed himself at some point in his undies with a telltale bulge, even if he didn’t post it in this instance. Which makes him a little weird, doesn’t it?

So Dawn, do you think he’s innocent? His story has changed, he grants interviews and then deliberately doesn’t answer, continues to come up with delerious answers to the simple question of “Is that you in the picture?” I also find it almost hilarious that you criticize those who think Weiner is guilty and then go on to make accusations about Breitbart, suggesting his guilt without any evidence. And to answer your first question. Yes ACORN is guilty of voter fr4aud as has been proven in several court cases which led to the firing or resignation of several staffers.

@matt [citation needed]

And what exactly was the answer?

@yamamaknowsbest

You mean when he kept answering the question by talking about pie? It’s amazing how New Yorks biggest wanna be tough guy has suddenly turned into a shrinking violet. Running from Cameras.

Of course, if I had a legacy of 1) flashing, 2) being unable to pass a budget in 2 years and 3) helping the Democrats usher in an era of high unemployment and all time high food stamp dependence, I’d be trying to keep cameras away from my office as well.

So is it his weiner?

Oh shut up cathy

Ditto, cathy! I also know he is guilty as sin!

TEll me, Ellen, what’s your feeling on Schwarzenegger, Bill Clinton, Vitter, Craig, and Lee? Go ahead and tell me you feel the exact same way when this happens to Repubs…. that shoe doesn’t quite fit so well when on the other foot, is my guess. The problem here is his arrogant refusal to quit obfuscating, and just FESS UP. This issue was created AND PERPETUATED solely by Mr. Weiner. End of sentence. And if you think a “private investigation” initiated by him is going to show that he did it, you are naive. As disgusting as it is to witness this BS, his arrogance leads the majority of people to wish he gets his commeuppance.

Clinton isn’t a Repub and millions of tax payer $$$ were used to investigate his on the job blow job. Is that money well spent? It’s not like Clinton was a bible toting family values preaching kind of guy like ALL the Repubs who point their crooked little finger at every Democrat in their way.

The Republican Party is full of hypocritical liars and give Republican voters a bad name.

As you said, Clinton isn’t a Repub, but of all the people on the list he is the ONLY one that was convicted of lying while under oath. The President of the United States got up, pointed a finger at the camera and lied to our face. That, however, is not a crime. Just as Wiener lying to the press is not a crime. What amazed me, even until this day, is that people defended that. “it was only about sex”. Sorry that doesn’t cut it. A lie is a lie and we should hold our elected officials, especially The President, to a higher standard. Once again, right is right and wrong is wrong. it doesn’t matter if it is repub or dem. if it is wrong it is wrong. Let’s stop saying “well what about this guy or that guy, that dem or that repub.”
Wrong is wrong
