"I don’t know the details, but I know him [Weiner] to be a person of integrity and I am virtually certain he had nothing to do with this." -- U.S. Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), 5/31/11
That's really interesting, Chuck, in light of this admission just yesterday:
"Last Friday night, I tweeted a photograph of myself that I intended to send as a direct message as part of a joke to a woman in Seattle. Once I realized I had posted it to Twitter, I panicked, I took it down, and said that I had been hacked. I then continued with that story to stick to that story, which was a hugely regrettable mistake. This woman was unwittingly dragged into this and bears absolutely no responsibility. I am so sorry to have disrupted her life in this way. To be clear, the picture was of me, and I sent it." -- Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY), 6/6/11
ROFL. It's a good thing Chuck Schumer is used to sticking his foot in his mouth.
It’s just remarkable isn’t it? We’re watching our culture being systematically numbed to crap we should never even know about, number one, and number two, watching grown adults somehow try to make it ok for him to remain in Congress.
I don’t want to know it- but if we’re going to know it- then these guys have simply got to go. Look what Boehner did with our guy last week- pics just of his chest and told him to pack his bags and go home. Boom- done. As it should be.
