(click link)Hey Weiner Boy?…
(the answer: No where.)

The newly formed Anthony Weiner-led Weiner Democratic CAUKus (WDC) – what Republican leaders are calling the new 'old boys' club' -- announced plans Wednesday to push for a nationalized WeinerCare program.
The Weiner Democratic CAUKus claims that millions of men are suffering from underexposed and undertreated weiners and yet another government-mandated nationalized program is needed to address the vast half-mast hidden problem.
At this time, the WDC plans to introduce a weinercare reform package that will be available for public examination on Twitter.
“With the economy having gone south, we need to let the American people know that we're not just frittering away our time here in D.C. and that men's needs will be addressed in the largest way possible,” WDC leader Rep. Weiner said.
President Barack Obama met with WDC leadership Wednesday to lend support for the new energetic Democratic thrust.
When asked about the weinercare initiative, President Obama said: “Well, I think it should be a right for every American male and male wannabes. In a country as wealthy as ours, for us to have people who are going 'bankrupt' down south because they can't pay enough attention to their need for service -- for my father not to have spawned more siblings and not be recognized as having a pre-existing condition and they don't have to pay his treatment, there's something fundamentally wrong about that.”
“Let me be also clear: Small packages are not going to have a mandate. What we're going to give you is a 50 percent tax credit to help provide weinercare for those that you need.”
“Now, it's true that I say that you are going to have to make sure that your child has weiner care, because children are relatively cheap to provide such care and we don't want them going to the emergency room for treatable things like, well, you know.”
“Now, the final point I'll make on this whole issue of government intrusion and mandates -- it is absolutely true that I think it is important for government to crack down on erectile dysfunction and escort companies that are cheating their customers, that don't give you the fine print, so you end up thinking that you're paying for something and, when you finally get blue balls and you need it, you're not getting it. And the reason that it's a problem to go shopping state by state, you know what these companies will do? They will find a state -- maybe Arizona, maybe another state -- where there are no requirements for you to get weiner screenings, where there are no requirements for you to have to get pre-existing conditions, and they will all set up shop there. That's how in banking it works. Everybody goes to Delaware, because they've got very -- pretty loose laws when it comes to things like credit cards. And in that situation, what happens is, is that the protections you have, the consumer protections that you need, you're not going to have available to you.”
“That is a fundamental difference that I have with Republicans. They believe in deregulation in every circumstance. That's what we've been going through for years. It hasn't worked, and we need fundamental change.”
The WDC is seeking to also expand Democratic support. Rep. Weiner thinks he can approach the Blue Dog Democrats to join him in what he labels his "Blue Balls" Caucus.
The reaction from the Republicans has been vehement.
“Where is the outcry from the Feminists?” asked Rep. John Boehner. “If female members of Congress conducted their own Twitter campaign taking pictures of themselves – of an anatomical area vulgarly referenced by a similar word to Twitter that starts with 'Tw' and ends with 't,' what would be the public demand for these female members of Congress to do? Isn't there a double-standard amiss being promulgated by this resurgent Democratic Old Boys' Club here?”
