Umm,, News Flash. House Minority Speaker Pelosi called on the House Ethics Committee to conduct an investigation into the use of gov't property due to allegations brought forth that he had.
Turn on Fox/CNN/ABC. Good stuff.
Apparently you didn't see my post a bit back that indicates another woman came out today with evidence of over 200 sex text from the Love Child and phone calls from his Gov't offices. She got tired of the dirty sextexting and told him to call. He did.
That's just the start-case file opened. From there, they will seize his computers and any other electronic devices that were issued to his etc. Then, if evidence of a crime, they will subpoena the court for his personal computers and phones....
They we are just blowing the dust off the top of the surface of this one.
Oh, I heard he was being groomed by the NY Dems for consideraton for the next mayor of NYC. Kiss that good-bye.
Well, he better think carefully: What a tangled web we weave... When we practice to deceive.
line them up and get rid of almost every single one of them

You are correct;and we should hold our pols to a higher standard.
We are bashing and making fun of the law firm of: " Wiener;Spitzer and Wrangle partially because they're all disgraced NY Dems:
(and honestly "Congressman Wiener" has a conveniently funny last name. "Frankly" begging for abuse. oops! No not "Bawney :I'm running a male prostitution ring out of my georgetown townhouse"Frank"). ..)
jeez I can't swing a cat in this thread with touching on some slime mold with a tie that I wouldn't beseen having lunch with.
You are defending his atrocious (lascivious)conduct precisely because he's a Dem.

I could really care less what our rep's do on their own time. Thier job performance is all that I am concerned with.
By the way, is Weiner a cigar aficionado?
If a person lacks integrity in their private life, they will lack it in their public life. I, for one, do not want a man who is clearly unable to make sound decisions to be casting votes in Congress. The kind of person you are in private in the kind of person you really ARE.
Sadly, the Internet is the predator's venue of choice today.

He deserves criticism. He lied and he was wrong. I was wrong for assuming this was just another typical smear campaign. I already said that. But lets not blow it out of proportion.

Then what qualities do YOU look for in a politician, that they are a progressive and that's good enough?
Lying, cheating, etc. are all OK with you as long as they share your political philosophy?
And if you don't condone those things in a politician, then aren't those also considered part of morality?
See, now you're sounding like someone sent here (rather recently) to defend Weiner specifically and progressives in general - no matter what they are being criticized for and how much they deserve that criticism.edit on 6/6/2011 by centurion1211 because: (no reason given)

You're wasting your time. This thread was never about Weiner and his photos.
Originally posted by centurion1211
You seem awfully eager to accept liars as politicians and vice versa.
Why?
Most people are becoming disgusted with the way ALL of our politicians act, if they weren't already disgusted.
Then we have those - such as yourself - that seem almost pathologically unable to find fault with one of their own.
Makes me wonder if they keep defending Weiner as a fellow democrat, or as a fellow liar, or both?

so let me see if I understand this right.
We have a new witness that makes claims
and has pics, but they can't show the evidence
cuz it's too graphic ???
lol
how many times have we heard this
before ???
evidence isn't evidence unless it can
be shown.
I am no fan of the Dems btw
See newcovenant "character counts":They ask us to install them in positions of authority to make important decisions that affect all of us. I wouldn't grant most of these rejects the authority to referee a urine soaked volleyball match at an old folks home. No Not everybody is doing it". you only need to look toward military folks who are granted ts/sci clearances and submit to thorough background investigations. "Adultery" is a reason for denial of clearances("blackmail material" as mentioned else where further up the thread). Nothing biblical about it.. we have every right to expect scrupulous conduct from our elected class.
Friday, February 4, 2011 S. FLORIDA POLITICS: Mark Foley for Palm Beach Mayor gets some Big Backing From Eric Dondero: Former libertarian-leaning Republican Congressman Mark Foley has anounced for Mayor of Palm Beach... But now it's official, and by all accounts his celebrity makes him a formidable candidate. He's already picked up a major endorsement, not surprisingly from another libertarian-leaning Congressman, and one that carries a great deal of weight in the region with conservative-minded and Tea Party voters.www.libertarianrepublican.net...
