Well, well, well, another liberal scum caught like a rat in a trap with his own devices. Will he pay or skate? I say skate.
Point being, there is a double standard. Wrong is wrong, unless you are a lib then it's OK...if you aren't a lib then it is not OK...Got it?
What is wrong is only wrong and people must be held accountable if it is the other guy not if it is my guy....sort of just oozes hypocrisy, doesn't it.

Right, because only Dems do these sorts of things. I'm sure Maria and the former Mrs. Gingritches and Mrs. McCain will be pleased to hear that. ::) Now, onto to this particular scumbag. He is done. I don't know if he broke any laws, but he has been outed as a lying, cheating weasel with bizarre sexual tastes. He also (much like Arnie) sort of cheated on a hot accomplished woman for nothing. Plus, the fact that his name is Weiner isn't helping. His mentor Schumer (its his old seat) is walking away and Pelosi is calling for an investigation, the wife is tight with Hillary (who has some issues with cheating husbands), and the NY tabloids are debating whether making fun of him is just too easy. The guy is toast. ;D

FQ, look at the record, Tom Delay gets jail, Wrangel and Dodd are told "Go forth and sin no more" (again ) Maxine Waters is a "victim" because she slapped a cop, Frank, conflict of interest, male prostitution, and an inconvenient corpse in his Mass home and the guy is STILL in office.

I see Weiner hosting a CNN show in the future.

Maybe Fox. Sean Hannity lost his co-host. "Hannity and Weiner" anyone, or would that be redundant? Alternatively he and Elliot Spitzer would make a great pair on CNN now that Kathleen Parker left, (of course Spitzer actually had sex, rather than just texting about it, but that's why Weiner would be the side kick). ;D

It's entertaining the morons in the country so they won't think about the economy, unemployment, falling home prices, foreclosures and other, more important things on the news cycle. Smoke and mirrors and some very bright people are falling for it!
Forget about this asshole and remember what's important.
And, again.....Maria Shriver is about as attractive as a anatomy skeleton....one more person refers to her as attractive and my head's gonna explode and I don't like it when that happens!
;D

Ok just to hear the boom. She's a cutie!" ;)
And there it is. ;D
I just read the responses over at CNN and had to vote the second option for them.
You have got to read these responses. It's crazy. The women posting are the ones defending this guy! :o
I don't get it. ??? It's like saying, "Sure. Sext with whoever you want. I don't mind." :-X
My wife would kill me if I did that. (and, to be honest, I'm glad she feels that way.)

Now, Mrs. Weiner is a cutie and soon to be on the market!

LOL!
+1 on that. ;)

Remember how the National Organization of Women defended Clinton when he was accused of rape ?
Talk about short term memory loss, it was just the last 2 weeks it came out that Frenchman Strauss raped another woman in France same MO as the one in NY but the victims socialist Mother convinced her to let it slide.
The agenda is much more important than a few victims.
Besides, it wasn't his pecker, it was just a ..." representative wiener". ;D
Now to comment on the "morality".
You're a bunch of f*cking hypocrites.
You wouldn't have any problem at all if some woman sent you unsolicited titty shots, so lay off the self righteous BS.

Hey, I'm not saying she's a beauty queen, but for a woman in her fifties with three kids she's all right, and she's smart as hell (though not so much in choosing a husband apparently :-X). I wouldn't choose her as a pin up, but I don't think she deserves ridicule either.

All his Lib buddies in Congress, are making a "hard" decision, and not
playing, associating with the Wiener anymore.
Even the former head of the DNC Tim Kaine, wants him to "pull out"...... Reid told him to call someone else.
All too easy to make jokes of this pencil neck Wiener.
Good news, he won't be the pit bull attack dog of the Left. We have Debbie Wasserman Schultz, aka Pelosi lap dog, for that now.
She's the one that said "undocumented immigrants" are NOT doing anything illegal... :P

Just to prove to Rastus that Dems will turn on their own as fast as Republicans I offer this. There is no double standard. Libs will run from Wiener as fast as conservatives ran from Foley.The easiest way to identify a sinking ship is to do a census of the rats. ;) Here is the latest from Politico, posted 6-9-11. There is no double standard Rastus, just bastards on both sides of the aisle. There is plenty of blame and hypocrisy to go around.
FQ13
Democrats start bailing on Weiner
(I will not comment on that headline FQ13 8))
Rep. Anthony Weiner’s grip on his House seat grew far more tenuous Wednesday as he was hit with the release of another graphic picture purported to be of his genitals, the public revelation that his wife is pregnant and a flood of calls from prominent Democrats for him to resign.
It’s up to Weiner to decide whether he’ll ride out a scandal that grows more intense, and more embarrassing, by the day. For now, Weiner is resisting the calls. “He is not resigning,” said a Democratic insider who spoke with him.
Continue Reading
But pressure is steadily building from within Democratic ranks for him to call it quits and end the saga of the first Twitter-made political sex scandal.
Two former Democratic National Committee chairmen, former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell and former Virginia governor and current Senate candidate Tim Kaine, have called on Weiner to tender his resignation, as has Rep. Allyson Schwartz, the Pennsylvania Democrat who runs the recruitment and candidate-services operations for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.
“Having the respect of your constituents is fundamental for a member of Congress. In light of Anthony Weiner’s offensive behavior online, he should resign,” Schwartz said in a statement given to POLITICO Wednesday afternoon.
“I think this picture puts it over the limit, and I think he has no choice but to resign,” Rendell told Chris Matthews on “Hardball” Wednesday evening. “What I think Anthony Weiner should do is, he still has a lot to offer, he should resign, he should get treatment, and I mean real treament, maybe inpatient treatment, and if he can rehabiliate himself, can he someday down the road in New York run for office? Maybe, maybe. But he’s got to resign. He owes it to the party, he owes it to Congress, and he owes it to the issues he fought for.”
The dam is breaking on Weiner as he battles to save his career from a sex scandal made for the Internet age: In addition to the two former DNC chairmen, six House Democrats and two Democratic senators had called for his resignation by Wednesday evening. Democratic sources told POLITICO that members of Weiner’s staff were looking into new job opportunities. Some New York Democrats are starting to float the names of potential Weiner successors. Had the House been in session, the dam could have given way completely.
Two weeks ago, Weiner was a progressive crusader who had built a following through frequent television appearances and a special mastery of the social media tools Facebook and Twitter. As it turns out, his undoing was rooted in his facility with those Internet-age instruments. Now, colleagues said, he has embarrassed not only himself but his constituents and the institution of Congress. He has provided endless fodder to late-night comics while ruining a political future that seemed destined for the New York mayor’s office.
In short, some say, he can no longer be effective.
But Weiner, witty, brash — and arrogant — has said he has no plans to go away quietly. In an unusually emotional, detailed and freewheeling New York news conference Monday, he admitted that he had sent sexually explicit photographs and text messages to six women over three years, including since he married Huma Abedin, a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, last summer. He said he would stay in Congress and remain married to Abedin, who is just ending the first trimester of her pregnancy.
Compounding the fundamental damage of the sex scandal, Weiner lied about it — repeatedly and proactively — for more than a week. Because there is no indication that he had physical contact with any of the women and has not campaigned in the past as a champion of sexual prudence, it is likely that it is the lie — the coverup — that has hurt him the most.
He seemed at times to relish the opportunity to dissemble in the days after conservative Andrew Breitbart first published a photograph of Weiner’s bulging gray boxer-briefs in late May. Weiner said his Facebook account had been hacked, that he was the victim of a “prank” — even though the picture was captured from a platform called yfrog and linked in a message he sent from his Twitter handle. In truth, he had inadvertently posted the message, intended for a female college student in Washington state, to a publicly accessible website.
Continue Reading
Breitbart, pushing for vindication, published text messages Weiner had exchanged with another woman. He said he had a photo of Weiner’s naked manhood in reserve if the New York Democrat didn’t confess to the online relationships and lying about them.
Weiner did just that on Monday.
But that didn’t end the affair.
By Tuesday, a handful of political voices called for him to resign — most prominently, Kaine and House Majority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.).
By Wednesday, the floodgates were ready to open.
Schwartz delivered the first blow from a lawmaker with ties to the Democratic leadership. It was direct: She suggested Weiner no longer has the respect of his constituents. How would the Philadelphia lawmaker know that? She grew up in nearby Flushing, N.Y.
Other House Democrats who called for Weiner to step aside: Niki Tsongas of Massachusetts, Larry Kissell of North Carolina, Michael Michaud of Maine, Joe Donnelly of Indiana and Mike Ross of Arkansas, according to various news reports. Democratic Sens. Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Mark Pryor of Arkansas also said it is time for Weiner to go. White House spokesman Jay Carney declined to comment on the matter, as did Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill.
Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.), a 15-year veteran of the House, told Lawrence O’Donnell on MSNBC that he doesn’t “see how you serve effectively after this amazingly egregious behavior.”
“Lying to the public, I think your credibility is shot and I think Anthony would be better served moving on to something else,” Blumenauer said.
Earlier Wednesday, radio shock jocks “Opie & Anthony” — Gregg Hughes and Anthony Cumia — posted a photograph of a man’s genitals taken from an image on Breitbart’s phone of a picture reportedly taken by Weiner himself. The radio duo later said they secretly took the picture and posted it online without consulting Breitbart, who had previously promised not to release the image because Weiner had copped to his actions.
Weiner’s camp didn’t deny that it was a picture of him.
“As Rep. Weiner said on Monday when he took responsibility for his actions, he has sent explicit photos. To reiterate, he has never met any of these women or had physical contact with them,” Weiner spokeswoman Risa B. Heller said. “As he said, he deeply regrets the pain he has caused. With the full support of his wife, he is working on righting these wrongs with his family and his colleagues.”
House Democratic leaders have urged the Ethics Committee to initiate an investigation into whether Weiner broke any House rules — one of which is to behave in a manner that reflects well on the institution.

I'm not ridiculing anyone. I'm just saying I have long thought (i.e. for multiple decades) she was too gaunt to be attractive.

"Two weeks ago, Weiner was a progressive crusader..."
I disavow any association with this Weiner.

Gotta throw the bullsh!t flag on that one. When Chris Lee posted his infamous shirtless photo John Boehner was on the line telling him he needed to step down before it even hit the evening news. Pelosi, Reid, et al, waited to see which way the wind was blowing before they even offered tepid disapproval. The left sees this as a sexual indiscretion (which it was initially) the right sees it as lying to the public (which it became). The left doesn't seem to get that part of it.
"But I want to say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I'm going to say this again: I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time; never. These allegations are false."

And she's reported to already have a "bun in the oven" so you wouldn't have any work to do, either. Sounds like the perfect set-up for a truly lazy man.

PS What kind of jackass cheats publicly on the daughter of a man who was an Islamic scholar in Saudi Arabia, and who's mother is Palestinian, particularly if you're jewish? If there's a quicker way to get yourself Fatwahed before you can say "honor killing", I'm not sure what it is. Oi vey, and he seemed like such a nice bright boy. ;D

I did get a chuckle out of the headline, though: Weiner To Srtick It Out

It's sticking it IN that would really get him in trouble. ;D
Fact is, this is a f*cking joke.
It's become a media event aimed at taking your attention away from from the 6 week decline of the stock market, declining employment, and the continuing decline of the American economy.

Like most everything on the news today, nothing important, only the IMPOTENT!

And where is Weiner today? What happened to him as a result of this old stuff?
-
Then Dems are considering running him as VP with Obama's former AG.
WEINER/HOLDER 2020. ;D

Actually, he continues to be under investigation for sexting with a teenager. His wife, Huma, has finally filed for divorce (which may happen before she is sent to prison). And even the libtards are shunning him. Life's not so good for a wiener.

Six years and he still isn't in prison....
-
Well, Weiner got sentenced to prison for 21 months...give or take.
HOWEVER, it isn't for anything that happened way back in 2011 when this thread started. He skated on the 2011 stuff. He got nailed for child porn sexting in 2015 or 2016....a totally different charge.
Bottom line is that he did skate for what happened in 2011. Just like most of us said he would. It's the new stuff that added to it and provided a "trip wire" that took him down with his over the top outrageous behavior when it involved a child.
And the supposed knives that were coming out for him from his fellow Dems back in 2011....it did not happen. They kept him around and humored him rehabilitating his political chances until what he did got some much blowback they had to drop him to keep it from getting on them too.

Tom I see what you did there. That is savage at a new level.
