Kinky Congressman Anthony Weiner conducted several of his steamy online sessions while his better half was out of the country, records show. As the "body woman" to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Huma Abedin is tasked with accompanying the former first lady on diplomatic globetrotting missions. Weiner, it seems, uses the timing of her foreign affairs to pursue domestic ones online.
For instance, last month, while Abedin and Clinton were in Rome meeting with Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, Weiner was chatting up Texas nursing student Meagan Broussard. As Abedin aided Clinton during the two-day effort to talk strategy with international partners on how to protect civilians in Libya, Weiner sent Broussard photos of himself with two cats.
On March 16, while Nevada Democratic volunteer Lisa Weiss says he was sexting with her on Facebook, according to RadarOnline.com, Abedin was with Hillary Clinton visiting Egypt and Tunisia, federal records show.
At each stop, while Weiner discussed whether Jewish women were adept at performing oral sex, Abedin helped Clinton consult with government officials and elements of civil society on recent events in the Middle East and the full range of regional and bilateral issues.
With Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-NY, it’s mostly Republicans who are griping about the liberal media. The complaints are falling into four major categories:
1. Major media outlets ignored the story when it broke last week.
2. Journalists uncritically reported Weiner’s tale that his Facebook and Twitter accounts were hacked, which he admitted Monday was a lie.
3. The media was more interested in attacking the messenger – Andrew Breitbart – than it was in reporting the sexually provocative photo the married congressman tweeted to a 21-year-old college woman.
4. Media pundits were softer on Weiner than they were on Republicans who were caught in sex scandals, like Chris Lee, John Ensign, Larry Craig, David Vitter and Mark Foley.
In Category 4, some, like Barbara Walters on The View, even worked out theories to excuse Weiner.
After noting that Weiner’s beautiful wife is chief of staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and, therefore, travels a lot, Walters said this: “It may be that he took that picture and sent it to his wife to say, ‘this is how much I miss you.’”

Big deal, a Democrat has a little fantasy fling online and swaps some naughty photos, BIG DEAL!!!
Its better than the AZZ-RAPING that the Republicans LITERALLY give the middle-class folks in this country.

I don’t want this and all the anxiety that comes with it. I was worried that all of my personal messages and photos were going to come out, and so I came forward. I just hope to be left in peace.
Get that popcorn ready because it sounds like you are really going to enjoy watching these women be destroyed personally in the reach to get more salacious details about Anthony's private life.
You seem waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too eager to hunker down and get more details about the woman that wants to be left alone.

What I find crazy about all of this is that depending on the political party, the outcome is radically different.
Democrat: People complain, the party doesn't demand his resignation, he gets reelected, or a spot on MSNBC.
Republican: People complain, his party demands he resigns, he resigns in disgrace.

Now we have the aid of polygraphs and the internet, we will be able to enlist much more honorable (but likely less useful) representatives in their place.

Weiner and former porn star Ginger Lee exchanged scores of sexual emails over a long period of time. When the underwear scandal broke on May 28, Lee began receiving calls from the media, and Weiner was more than happy to help her control the situation ... by lying.
On June 2, Weiner emailed Lee, "Do you need to talk to a professional PR type person to give u advice? I can have someone on my team call. [Yeah, my team is doing great. Ugh]." It's unclear if Weiner's PR team is from his Congressional staff. If so, Weiner could run afoul of House Ethics Rules as well as the law.
Weiner put on a full court press, urging Lee to lie about their relationship. On June 1, he emailed her: "The key is to have a short, thought out statement that tackles the top line questions and then refer people back to it. Have a couple of iterations of: 'This is silly. Like so many others, I follow Rep. Weiner on Twitter. I don't know him and have never met him. He briefly followed me and sent me a dm saying thank you for the follow. That's it.'" Weiner suggested a nice touch -- some good ol' Southern charm: "And then maybe insert some y'alls in there."
