Human Events columnist (and former Deputy Press Secretary at the U.S. Department of State, Communications Director for the House Majority Whip, and Associate Producer at ABC News), Emily Miller attempted to ask Representative Anthony Weiner some questions about the infamous Twitter scandal. Here's what went down:

"I got stuck inches from this disgusting Anthony Weiner as he talked to reporters outside the House chamber. He made over six lewd jokes that were so gross, I was bright red and tried to back away from him."

Some of the representative comments:

I asked Anthony Weiner if there are photos of him half-dressed out there. He said "if you'll forgive me, I was a little stiff yesterday..."

Weiner: "Maybe this will turn out to be the point of al Qaeda's sword..." (then he paused for a laugh line)

Weiner: "Can we all just take a step back, I dont mean that literally, you all can stand as close as you like" (I wanted to crawl away)

Weiner said the photo "might have been manipulated with-- as jon stewart alluded to last night" and then laughed and smirked. I cringed.

Anthony Weiner made about six penis jokes while talking to reporters, standing outside the House floor. He has NO RESPECT for the office.

The man certainly lives up (or, should that be, down) to his name.

Dude, this is the kind of behaviour that leaves people open to blackmail and extortion. Weiner is a US Congressman, with access to classified information. His wife works directly for the Secretary of State.

IT IS OUR BUSINESS!

Not much of a multi-tasker, are you? We can handle all the things you refer to and this topic too.

The point is very simple. A point that has escaped you or is just not important to you. This little snot is a member of the United States Congress! That used to be an important thing until creeps like this juvenile punk got themselves elected.

This bozo works for me! He is paid by me! I expect him to be the best of the best! What I see is a little boy who has been able to get away with an aweful lot. He needs a time out that has no end.

Don’t come here and lecture me about my attitude towards someone as stupid as this Weiners character. This cartoon of a man child who does not get to act this way after men and women shed blood so he can be free to attain one of the most unique and important positions on Earth.

I can be all the things you list and worse but he does not have that luxury. Not while he is a member of Congress. He can resign and perv out all he wants. In the meantime he will be judged by his employer. Me!

OMG, that was a hilarious parody of a faux-concerned Leftist!!!

...Oh, wait. Was that supposed to be serious?

Stick a fork in it. Your boy’s done.

Nothing much, he knows the lefties and the media will cover for him...

How rich! The Big Bad Freepers "cannot leave other people alone."

This is ANTHONY WEINER you're talking about, an arch leftist, a hero of the so-called progressive wing of the Democrats, and a guy who has made it his life mission to have the Gubmint intrude in every aspect of your life.

I say: Let's keep bringing the heat on Weiner for sending a pic of his boner to a 21 yr old (who ain't his wife), then lying about it for three days.

Hoist this liberal con artist by his own petard.

Politics isn't for the faint of heart, EvasiveManeuver.

Go back and re-read your own post, and then ask who it is that is obsessing over this one issue, you troll!!!

[rambo316]

Imagine being named Richard Wiener.

[izzatzo]

Yeh, let’s be reasonable like the ‘rats, huh? You ever hear of Mark Foley or Senator Doofus from MT or ID or wherever he was from? Fight fire with fire. As for self-immolation, it wouldn’t hurt to strike the match for him.

[MHGinTN]

Why? Because they are in reality Republicant’s.

[izzatzo]

Agreed. Weiner is in the Chucku Schumer class of vermin.

[hobbes1]

It tells you about Gutless Republicans.

Why is the Speaker not calling for his resignation, or putting every Middle American Democrat set at risk, by running against Democrat corruption.

[EvasiveManuever]

Blackmail a Demonkrat??

To do what?????

Behave ethically and stand up for freedom and individual liberty?

Heck, I’d help you. Get some dirt.

[EvasiveManuever]

That used to be an important thing until creeps like this juvenile punk got themselves elected

Uh no. It didn't. That's more of the false moralism. People have been sleeping around for centuries. Even (GASP) before 1950. They were called the Roaring 20s for a reason.

In the 1800s we had fist fights, duels and one cane beating on the floor of the House. So no.... it's not some place full of Paragons. Once upon a time people shot each other over insults. Those the glory days you long for?

It's not a church. It's a government building, filled with most flawed (more than the average populace) people.

This bozo works for me! He is paid by me!

So YOUR boss has control over who you sleep with? What you do with your spare time?

This cartoon of a man child who does not get to act this way after men and women shed blood so he can be free to attain one of the most unique and important positions on Earth.

Precisely the opposite.

[tacticalogic]

He’s a public official. Twitter is a public forum. The public can and should hold him accountable for how he behaves in that forum. What part of that are you not understanding?

[EvasiveManuever]

Not my guy. But you aren't winning by beating him over a sex issue. IT WILL BACKFIRE AGAIN. Party of Stupid. Beat the ideas, attract the young to the ideals of liberty. Act like a self righteous holier than thou jerkwad, and turn everyone off - lower interest in any view opposing the Demonz.

If he was whipping it out on the House floor, you'd have a point. He wasn't. Non-story - or SHOULD BE in any sane Republic with a modicum of sense about sexuality and lacking a desire to act like adolescents.

[EvasiveManuever]

This is ANTHONY WEINER you're talking about, an arch leftist, a hero of the so-called progressive wing of the Democrats,

And you want to beat him up over his tally whacker.
Good plan, that.

How about we destroy their vision of America instead?? It is not the high road to mess in people's private lives. Stop acting like the enemy.

[EvasiveManuever]

It's my only post on the subject, after seeing days of it. Do a search, knobgoblin. Real issues exist, and you're biting on the hook thrown out for you. I might point out that Weiner's shortfellow is even stealing air time from Sarah.....

[EvasiveManuever]

Yeh, let’s be reasonable like the ‘rats, huh? You ever hear of Mark Foley or Senator Doofus from MT or ID or wherever he was from? Fight fire with fire.

Wrong answer.

This does nothing to impress the moderates, or the middle of the roaders who do not know what to think.

Since they need to be TOLD what to think, we do NOT want them thinking that we are the party or side of "Minding other people's bedroom business".

Which is how we will be painted.

Let the left self destruct. Stop getting down in the mud with them. If there is a difference, then we need to act like it, even when it isn't perhaps in our best interest.
