Anthony Weiner and the law's peril
Politico.com ^ | 6/3/2011 | ROGER SIMON

If you smell something burning, it is Anthony Weiner’s future going up in smoke.

((snip))

In all of his TV appearances so far, Weiner has looked about as innocent to me as O.J. Simpson did. No, strike that. Some people think O.J. really is innocent. Nobody could possibly watch Weiner and think he is. He couldn’t look more guilty if he ran down Pennsylvania Avenue at high noon, wearing nothing but a pair of bulging gray underpants.

The Dummies think he’s innocent and for those of you who are wondering, the Dummies are Liberal Democrats that wouldn’t care a lick if Weiner got caught raping innocent women & children.

I am somewhat pleasantly surprised that the press isn’t going along with Weiner’s lies. But give them time. Give them time.

Perhaps it exists, but I cannot recall a recent article contrasting Republican Rep. Chris Lee's February 2011 resignation from his NY seat for exposing his chest. Of course, Weiner should resign, but if he does not and if his constiuents re-elect him, we can add another chapter to our country's immoral sinkhole.

In just about all the stories I have read the MSM manages to tell the entire story in its current permutation without telling a soul that his clown is a Democrat. If he was a Republican that word would appear at least sixteen times per paragraph.

Sexting college co-eds. Tweeting porn stars.

Evidently he drank the same dirty NYC water as Spitzer.

He will be perfect for a show host on MSNBC. Compete with the brit with no ratings on cnn.

Every Freeper should call their Congressman and ask them to call for an immediate investigation on the grounds that one of their esteemed colleague’s accounts was hacked and all members of Congress could be potential targets. In the name of national security it is imperative to find out if this hacking incident was an isolated prank or the first wave of a cyberattack against the United States. That would force him either to fess up or risk prosecution for a false report. I will be calling my Congressman, Tom Graves, this morning and asking him to do exactly that.

China suspected in cyber attack on emails of top U.S. government, military officials

Yes, give them time. It’s already falling off the radar.

And be known as the one who caused the hosts to outnumber the audience.

I have heard comments on several TV talking head situations (outside of FOX in fact) that compared Tony Weiner's behavior to that of Mark Foley ~ which, of course, is the case.

This guy was trolling young women through Twitter. You can count on most of them being younger than the young men Mark trolled (with e-mails).

Nancy Pelosi's senile dementia has her firmly in its grip else she'd be able to see what happened here and her pet boy would already be outta there before he takes several other Democrats with him in the next election!

Not falling off the radar at all if he keeps calling the cops when a reporter appears in his office.

As long as it isn’t like rape rape.

I wonder how his Mom feels about this? Or his wife?

This is also a nice reminder of the old saying that "your character is defined by what you do when you think no one is looking".

Weiner was considered a pretty good bet to succeed Bloomberg as mayor of New York City. Now, all bets are off. In fact, America is the winner here. The politician’s reputation is destroyed just as surely as the former head of the IMF.

I expect Weiner to be given a talk show on CNN - in the sloit between Spitzer (Client Number 9) and Joyless Brayer.

“The Dummies think he’s innocent and for those of you who are wondering, the Dummies are Liberal Democrats that wouldn’t care a lick if Weiner got caught raping innocent women & children.”

Well put.

Prediction:
The overeducated and overpaid liberal democratic dolts in New York City will elect him mayor anyway. In some areas of the city (Greenwich Village), Mr. Weiner’s weiner pic may actually GAIN him votes!

Just sayin’....
