Weiner isn’t known for being able to think well.
“He makes the same hand gesture at the same exact point in his comment both times. Somebody’s been rehearsing.”
That’s not the only “hand gesture” he’s been practicing.
He sent it alright. Had he not, he would be whining for an FBI computer forensics team to unmask the hacker. He will get away with it. In his district, all you have to do is support Israel, endorse unrestricted abortion and hate Sara Palin on suspicion that she might be a serious Christian. For the constituency he represents, lewd behavior is a resume enhancer. What an obnoxious little punk.
It would be very sweet if your theory turns out to be right on the money.
Weiner is a pure ass and deserves whatever karma befalls him.
I can’t believe the writer called it a “testy exchange.” Too funny.
Before his 2009 marriage to Huma Abedin, an aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Weiner was known as one of Washington’s most eligible bachelors, with a long and glamorous list of exes. But perhaps no incident is as infamous as his encounter with a young staffer two days after Sept. 11, 2001, recounted in a Vanity Fair article that year.
Vicky Ward, a reporter for the magazine, was tracking Diana Davis, a young congressional staffer who bragged, “Maybe I’ll bag me a senator” after snagging her Hill gig. Davis and intern Carolina Chatterton were at the D.C. restaurant Capital Grille when they met a group of suited men. One, a goateed young man, introduced himself as “Anthony,” and said he was an auto-parts salesman. The next day, Weiner sent Davis an email-although she initially didn’t know he was a congressman. “He writes that he hopes they might meet again,” Ward wrote. “Diana is overwhelmed that he’s managed to think of her on a day that must be heavy with import and emotional intensity. Last night he mentioned that he’d be going to Manhattan to inspect the World Trade Center wreckage with the president.”
Davis said Weiner had emailed that she could visit him in his office “in person,” a suggestion she found “cheesy.” Weiner denied offering any such invitation and explained that he didn’t like to identify himself as a congressman when socializing. “I feel it’s a way to protect myself,” he told The Washington Post’s Lloyd Grove, now a Daily Beast editor at large. “I think people are less likely to overhear what an auto parts salesman would say. I was shocked to learn that two days after September 11, Vanity Fair was pursuing a sting operation down in Washington.”
As a young, single member of Congress-he’s only 46 now, and looks younger-he dated a string of high-profile young women.
Even if nothing happened with Davis, Weiner’s love life was a topic of conversation. As a young, single member of Congress-he’s only 46 now, and looks younger-he dated a string of high-profile young women. He was romantically linked to Rebecca Mead, a New Yorker writer; television personality and “cybermodel” Alli Joseph; and TV reporter Gigi Stone. (The New York Daily News once published a gallery of “Weiner’s Women.” )
In 2008, Weiner sponsored a bill to increase the number of visas available to models by 1,000. The representative’s spokesman said it was just economics to bring jobs to New York City, but the New York Post was skeptical. “Seems Anthony Weiner is working hard to increase his dating pool,” the tabloid quipped.

Wow, when the NYT makes a Dem look guilty, that’s not so good. Weiner’s just about roasted.
Lol! Every time they mention “Weiner hacked”, mohel jokes come to mind...
amazes me msm is on this to any degree
“..I just wonder if the press is making a big thing out of nothing...”
Well, in his press encounter, I don’t think he hit one out of the Ball Park Frank(ly). After that encounter, he probably headed straight to the Bar(S). He thinks he’s a hot dog, but he is just a weiner.
Another example of a hateful character that loves to dish it out but crashes and burns when the shoe is on the other foot.
Wait until they show his thong photo.
Or as someone at NRO put it: Weiner Gets Prickly.
The Bob n Tom show is broadcast on a local station. Can’t stand it, but the CD was over and I didn’t want to fiddle with the radio as I drove through a detour. They mentioned this, and had some of the audio. He needs to be gone from office, pronto.
