Bronxville - That Leftist blogger interpretation of Weiner’s debate makes him sound pretty solid on Israel. Doesn’t matter though...while he was viewed as some progressive truth-teller, he never could change the Lefts mind on Israel. He was always written off as Jewish and partial. He was ultimately useless.
He was fairly persuasive about Israel on television especially since the press loved him. He was a barrier in not letting them go too far in dissing Israel and now he’s gone. That only leaves Schumer and Lieberman to buffer the NY media. They tried to dump Lieberman in the past which is why he went Independent. That leaves Schumer who isn’t quite as vocal as Weiner.
Schumer said “I’m not opposed” to the NYC mosque...Weiner never took a stance. Here’s a letter from him praising Blooomberg for his address about the mosque...

I believe Weiner is a narcissist, narcissists interact socially with others but they don’t form relational social bonds which matches Weiner and explains why there’s few supporting him. Narcissists don’t like being ‘owned’ therefore the they reduce all of those around them as non-human objects and this basically describes the marxist. I honestly doubt that there could be much love between Tony and his wife but they will stay together as it’s a cover for more deviant practices. I apply the same to Bill and Hillary, Obama and Michelle among others both in and out of congress. They’re followers of the “bluebloods” - “the upper class” - the Fabian Society, Bloomsbury Group, Cambridge Apostles, and so on...check out the background of the people who founded them. Vita Sacksville-West and hubby Nichols, Webbs, Woolves, GB Shaw, Bertrand Russell, Welles, Keynes, Huxleys, Strachey, Bells, and many more in the “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law” crowd.
