I know better than to look to any politician as a beacon of morality, but I do expect a certain level of smarts (Bush, Jr and Sarah Palin, excepted, obviously). As any idiot 9th grader knows, emailing photos of your junk to strangers is a good way to get into trouble. If not with your parents, then with your constituents.
If Anthony Weiner (and really, could his name be more perfect?) was 80 and sending bulging boxer-brief pics to strange broads on the internet, we could chalk it up to technical ineptitude. But Weiner has made good (and now, moronic) use of social media, so he knows the deal: if you wouldn't be comfortable showing your wife, then keep it off the internet.
I guess it's refreshing that Weiner's not a hypocrite, like hooker-hiring Elliott Spitzer, who dedicated so much of his career to going after working girls, or gay-hating closet-case Larry "Wide Stance" Craig, but still. You're a big disappointment, Weinerdog. A big disappointment.
I'm just glad your wife had the good sense to stay home. I suppose she and her boss have a lot to talk about today. . . .
These guys are all clowns. This is the best argument yet for reinstating the draft so this guy could grow up, see the world and quit being a frat-boy.
