From the article:
“Let’s talk about media cover-ups,” Breitbart said. “Very few people know this, but Jon Stewart and Congressmen Weiner were once roommates.
NOT EXACTLY! With the Weiner, wouldn't you know it had to something weird. From nymag.com, Anthony Weiner Has a Bone to Pick With His Old Roommate Jon Stewart
Well, technically, Stewart and Weiner's girlfriend shared an apartment, and Weiner was the guy who was there all the time, walking around in his boxers and drinking the last of the milk.
So the arrangement was that Steward lived with Weiner's "girlfriend" and Weiner mooched leftovers. Makes one wonder what the Weiner, Huma, Hillary arrangement is for the marriage performed by Bill Clinton.

Peggy Noonan’s legal actions:

******

Before the Reagan years, Noonan worked as the daily CBS Radio commentary writer for anchorman Dan Rather at CBS News, who she called “the best boss I ever had.”

In 1985, Rahn married Peggy Noonan, then a speechwriter for President Ronald Reagan. The couple later divorced after five years of marriage.

Richard W. Rahn (born January 9, 1942, in Rochester, New York) is an American economist who frequently writes for The Washington Times. He was the Vice President and Chief Economist of the United States Chamber of Commerce during the Reagan Administration and remains a staunch advocate of Supply-side economics, Small government, and Classical liberalism. A senior fellow of the Cato Institute, Rahn received his M.B.A. from Florida State University, his Ph.D. from Columbia University, and an honorary Doctor of Laws from Pepperdine University.

Rahn is currently chairman of the Institute for Global Economic Growth, an organization that assists nations in implementing supply-side or “pro-growth” reforms.

“Peggy had quite the reputation as a party girl,” says Terri Belli, a former colleague at CBS.

This casual personal style was one of several things that didn’t sit well at the Reagan White House, where Noonan was hired as a speechwriter in 1984 after lobbying a few of her conservative contacts. On one occasion, she writes, “a young woman took me aside and said, ‘I heard you had wine in the mess...and smoked cigarettes.’ “ On another, Noonan’s walking shoes and wrinkled khaki skirt drew a look from Nancy Reagan that was clearly meant to wither the plants.

Noonan describes some of those attracted to the Reagan revolution as “creepy little men with creepy little beards who needed something to seethe on.

Now in the midst of a divorce from Richard Rahn, 48, chief economist for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, whom she met and married during her White House tour, Noonan has moved back to New York City, where she’ll write a novel and TV dramas. “Life is great,” she says, dismissing the collapse of her marriage and recent reports linking her to ABC’s Jeff Greenfield. “There is steak, there is ice cream, there is a lot of laughter, good times and good books. So what’s to complain about?”

Toobin must be doing “something” or someone in order to keep his job given how much he get flat out wrong about the law and legal system.

I am thinking that DC’s population’s sexual orientation is “its not moving”-u-al.

Toobin must be doing “something” or someone in order to keep his job given how much he get flat out wrong about the law and legal system.

He is a CNN token. He is never correct about anything much less the law.

*editor of the Harvard Law Review (sound familiar?).

Toobin is a longtime friend of Supreme Court justice Elena Kagan, having met her while the two were students at Harvard Law School.

Regarding Justice Clarence Thomas, Toobin has said that Thomas' legal views were "highly unusual and extreme", called him "a nut," and said that he was "furious all the time."

In March 2009, Politico revealed that Toobin was a member of the private discussion group JournoList, where "several hundred left-leaning bloggers, political reporters, magazine writers, policy wonks and academics" "talked stories and compared notes."

His father, Jerome Toobin, a producer for Bill Moyers.

Married to Amy McIntosh, chief talent officer at The New York City Department of Education.

Greenfield, now 36, was in her 20s when she fell for Toobin, now 49, even though he was wed to Amy McIntosh, the Harvard sweetheart he'd married in 1986 and who gave him two children.

"Jeff and Casey saw each other off and on over the years," says one source. "She was married to someone else for two years. After her divorce, she started seeing Jeff again. He said he was going to leave his wife for her. But, by then, Casey had begun to distrust him. She suspected he had several other mistresses."

In 2008, when Greenfield became pregnant and when she told Toobin the news, he offered her "money if she'd have an abortion," says a source. He also allegedly offered to pay for her to have another child later via a sperm donor.
