In a detached mode I'd say that's ludicrous for him to think so, but then I remember: Monica Lewinsky.<br /><br />Feminists everywhere should wonder what makes women and girls respond positively to behavior like Weiner's, rather than blaming Weiner for objectivizing women. He wouldn't do it if he didn't get a response.<br /><br />My Q: Why did that wife of his marry him? Obviously he's an insecure little putz who has to secretly show his schwantz in a "sext" to feel all Manly. Doesn't speak highly of her, does it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-2232482410857800922011-06-08T11:27:20.013-04:002011-06-08T11:27:20.013-04:00The Weiner problem is that it feeds the age-old el...The Weiner problem is that it feeds the age-old electoral dichotomy cliche: the Pwogs are the moral, upstanding, gun-totin' CHRISTIAN folks whom you should elect b/c and only b/c of their character (forget Foley, Vitter, Ensign, etc., that's not the narrative), while the Dims are evil, either Jewish or gay, perverts. That, of course, is the Pwog argument: don't pay att'n to policy or the fact that we're gonna' throw grandma under the bus so our healthcare industrialists and insurance co and BIG OIL buddies can get rich.

It was too vulgar, too cliche closet case for the corporati to stay out of the hunt.<br /><br />Here's the thing - I think if Weiner survives this week and the next, politically, he survives the whole affair. <br /><br />He's already laid his head at the feet of Billy Bubba and he's an important ally of a lobby which shall not be named. He represents a district gerrymandered to produce a particular sort of candidate, and faces little to no organized resistance. NY-9 hasn't elected a Republican since 1921. This is Ferraro and Schumer's old stomping ground. It has produced exactly four Republicans since 1865, and the first two were Civil War era Republicans.<br /><br />Weiner will be neutered (I couldn't help myself) for a bit, and he can give up on being NYC's mayor in the short run, but a censure might be all he faces. After all, his scandal is good for the Obama Administration. Completely ignoring the already imperialistic War Powers Act, whuh?Jack Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07499087036876745723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-41139381525322989592011-06-08T09:01:56.533-04:002011-06-08T09:01:56.533-04:00Yes, that's my sense of it too.

Since I was one of the gleeful then I couldn't make a fair and dispassionate comparison.<br /><br />I've neither disbelief or regret re: Weiner, the <a href="http://the-crows-eye.blogspot.com/2011/06/dick.html" rel="nofollow">DICK!</a> as you rightly call him. It *is* depressing watching it play out, on left and right, exactly as one could predict.<br /><br />As for the media, I sense their reaction is one disbelief that Weiner would risk his political ambitions and promising future (Foley was a nobody in comparison) for sexting. For people who fetishize power, they show an amazing density as to its properties.<br /><br />Bradley got his start in MLS.
