Anthony Weiners run for redemption is officially on.
The ex-congressman whose career imploded in a rash of raunchy tweets two years ago said in a YouTube video announcement late Tuesday that hes in the New York City mayoral race. Hed said last month he was considering it.
The Democrat is jumping into a crowded field for Septembers primary. Hes arriving with some significant advantages, including a $4.8 million campaign war chest, the possibility of more than $1 million more in public matching money, polls showing him ahead of all but one other Democratand no end of name recognition.

Sooo,
If ya send him a contribution for his campaign,
Ya think he’ll maybe send you a picture?
Anthony Weiner to join the Sausage Party.
“Hey, Baby, I’ve got yer Big Gulp right here...”
Not necessarily. But once you get elected the first time, you can tap into all the special interests that you help out, and they are more than happy to donate to keep you in office.
Remember Weenie served 7 terms in congress, never got less than 59% of the vote, and didn't have to spend much on getting re-elected. Combine that with the "market crushing" stock market returns typically scored by Congress members, and you have some real dough.
Weiner: “I spit in the face of those who mock me”!!!
I know, that’s seriously crude!
His campaign song should be Led Zeppelin’s “Hot Dog.”
What I sensed from the commercial was that he wants everyone to forget about the photos of his willie.
He always reminds me of little birds with their mouths open waiting for mother bird to feed it...he’s a disgusting piece of crap imo...looks like a dang bird....and needs to be a jailbird for all his antics.
He was toppled from his throne and now wants it back....and the people are just stupid enough to give it to him.
his slogan! ELECT LITTLE DICK.....
ELECT LIMP DICK.......
DON’T SCREW WITH WEINER.......
You get the government you deserve, NYC. You get the government you deserve.
Huma says..... Where is the beef?
“How much of that goes directly to the candidate? Is running for office a lucrative occupation?”
They get to use it to put pals on the payroll for the campaign (easy to set up no-show jobs). I believe the “war chest” has to be used within a certain period of time or he forfeits it; it can be used for the same BS. Some people run for office for the temporary exposure, which then lets them sell books and such; others have to simply burn up the war chest. I don’t see this freak as having any chance, an NYC-area radio host was referring to him as “Anthony Pen!s”.
Unlikely. Bloomberg pushed through all sorts of bad precedent.
Remember Weiner’s support of the United States National Health Care Act (the move to give Medicare to all Americans regardless of their age)?
“Weiner takes hard task in hand!”
Good. Let’s see how full support of Muslim Brotherhood (his wife Huma Abedin’s whole family) and him being Jewish? will meld.
New York...New York
If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere...
Here’s to you... oh New York...
Keeping it interesting and parodying everything wrong in America, especially New York - thanks Anthony for the lighthearted satire of vested interests and self-referential, willful, callously oblivious, shockingly irresponsible protected political classes. Keep the laughs coming, we could sure use them right now.
