    Could you elaborate? I may need to withdraw and apologize for my comment about you disliking Jews, but I need more information.

    I'll briefly elaborate. In my former life, I've witnessed firsthand their cohesiveness/cooperation/diligence as a group, and their subsequent gravitation into positions of authority within bureaucracies ; all done very quietly on their part. I believe most Americans fail to realize, or are indifferent to, the extent of control that they actually have in many areas. I'm NOT indifferent to it; in fact it alarms me. But then again I don't view them as The Chosen Ones either. I suspect many here on the BB do.

    Heheh, no need to apologize Paul, I'm probably just gonna offend your senses with something else on down the road. :)

    Men do stupid things when they meet attractive women. Big fat hairy deal.

    We have a country to save.

    I'm not excusing it, IF HE DID IT. It's not criminal activity, i.e. it's not a crime.

    As Bro. Curtis says, Weiner's an idiot, let's move on to substantial issues.

    Liar, liar, pants on fire.

    A liberal never admits he's a liar, even when caught red handed.

    My verdict: Not Guilty

    Here's why- the metadata from the photo doesn't match that of other photos on his Twitter and the woman who Mr. Weiner allegedly sent it to says she had never met him. It seems very unlikely he would post a photo of his wiener publicly on Twitter for the world to see from his congressional Twitter account even if he were involved in sexual shenanigans. Obviously I can't say 100% he didn't do it, but the evidence doesn't add up to say he did.

    "Obviously I can't say 100% he didn't do it"

    Nor can he it seems.

    He stated very clearly he didn't send it.

    His reaction to the whole thing bring it all into question. He is feeling guilty about something. And his claim that his account was hacked is a serious problem given he is a congressman. Yet he wants to just dismiss the whole thing. His story does not add up.

    It has been suggested that if he contacted law enforcement - then some other things may come to light.

    and the questions asked by the media were very straight and simple to answer. He simply beat around the bush. Either (a)he never had his picture taken as supposed or (b) someone has taken a picture of him in his skivvies. So Congressman, which one is the most correct answer - a or b ?

    Wait a minute...

    The guy refuses to say whether or not that was a picture of him (!).

    Why on earth would you keep lewd photos of yourself on your own computer--unless you were going to send them to people?

    Your partisanship has clouded your judgment in this particular case.


    Also, keep in mind how Weiner engaged in insults and name-calling when the reporters were asking him questions about this escapade. Not exactly behavior indicative of innocence, IMHO.

    But the big problem comes back to his steadfast refusal to say, "those pictures aren't me." And if they are...then it's fairly clear as to why he has them. Maybe he didn't plan on sending them via Twitter...but he was going to send them to some of his "groupies."

    An email I got this morn perked my interest in his other half (I'd consider them still to be 'newly weds'), who happens to be a strikingly beautiful and elegant woman. Hillary is [likely] counciling her now from her own experiences.
