Sure it has been said before, but really — what are the odds that someone with the last name “Weiner” would have this kind of problem?
If it happened in a movie, you’d say bullshit. Yet this is a true story.
Somewhere a skygod is laughing …
I am in Canada, there is something here right? I think that it is a video but not sure. What is it? Is it only me not seeing what ever this is and John great description on what ever this is.
John – Photo or video not showing
Fix please
Thanks
Take a look at all the artifacts in the ad. The rest of the page is crystal sharp. A rather poor PhotoShop job.
Time to turn up the BS Meter to high.
What a Jackwagon. Weinergate. The jokes will never end. I hope he survives.
Too bad his name was not Freddie instead of Anthony.
http://tinyurl.com/4dj8rz
A lesson to all young men is to be learned from this unfortunate fellow’s undoing.
AdBlock Plus will keep the ad from showing.
Funny stuff, John.
The only “accident” I know of was Weiner sending out that pick to everyone that follows him on Twitter rather than the one person he meant it to go to.
Haw…….Haw!!!!!!!
New Tech doing in the old folks again.
And so shall it ever be……Now, how do I post this again?
I just love idiots that always claim a picture has been Photoshopped when there’s hardly any evidence that this is the case. The whole damned screengrab has jpeg artifacting all over it, not just the ad that’s in question.
Moron…
For some reason, every time I see Anthony Weiner on TV I hear the song “My Ding-A-Ling” playing in the backround.
#11 Although a dumb thing to do, he came clean. The Puke’s would never come clean and will continue to bury the lie for a decade if they have to.
Also, you’re jealous of his body. Compare his shirtless picture to say, what beached whale Rush Limbaugh would look like.
Shouldn’t you be studying for the Oct 21st rapture entrance exam?
Did anyone else notice the username in the screencapture? http://topics.nytimes.com/topics/reference/timestopics/people/d/damon_darlin/index.html That’s apparently him…. Someone’s getting fired if NYT sees this.
I hate to mention it, but use a search engine to find this website (DU) and look at the ads that come up. Somebody seems to know something about you guys. Being female, I’m getting a big kick out of all this.
Well, Congressman Weiner completely unloaded today. Yowzah.
And Donald Trump finally shuts up about Obama’s birth certificate.
And Tina Fey will do an audiobook of Going Rogue.
When do American’s get around to actually governing their country?
I’m bored. Was going to read Alfie, but just can’t.
Alfie–why don’t you pull a reverse weiner and shorten your posts so they can be read in a glance? You know–increase efficiency by wasting less of our time?
Ha, ha.
Thanks Alfie–I don’t do twitter. don’t do weiners, with the sole exception of course, of you.
An example of “Appropriate Technology” ???
This whole scandal is quite hilarious on its own, but the circumstances make it even more so – his name is Weiner, Wolf Blitzer holding the photo and showing it too him, and now this.
However, the funniest thing to me is how much it reminds me of the made-up scandal in the first few minutes of the Parks and Recreation episode “First Date”. I can’t find that clip online but it is one Netflix – brilliant episode.
I don’t care about Weiner sending out photos of his junk. This is a stupid distraction. It’s obvious that Weiner isn’t a smart man. You never send those type of pictures out with your face clearly showing. And you only send those out when requested by someone you know. And remember, once you give a picture to someone else, consider it out there for all to see.
Enough Already Dude needs to try a 140 character per post diet for a few weeks might help him collect his thoughts.
The repair your Online rep add was great placement.
The should he resign thing, I guess not he seems to vote the way New York’s 9th District wants him to and he never ran on a family values plank. If he resigned would the 9th be unrepresented until a special election? Could Cuomo appoint some one that day? For Weiner to just resign and leave the 9th unrepresented with no vote for any bill would be some thing that would indeed effect his constituents.
Lets just be glad this dog and pony show so far has not had any real dogs or ponies involved.
Congress: Several hundred ambitious go-getter types who managed to get elected to positions of power and influence, living away from home most of the year. Is there anywhere a more likely recipe for shenanigans? As shenanigans go, Weiner’s seem small potatoes compared to actual affairs, secret children or using a “wide stance” in a public restroom.
That said, it’s all just more evidence that we’re all just a bunch of monkeys.
(I know, closer to apes than monkeys, but that’s poetic license for you.)
ok. Harry Reid has condemned him. I guess all the sheep can stop defending him.
I do not understand why these people think they can safely do this sort of thing.
I know I’m paranoid but the universe is going to kill me sooner or later. These people seem to think they are living a charmed life and no matter how _pickyourownword_ they act nothing is going to happen to them.
and that stupidity exists in his progressive positions which are terrible for those he lords over, us.
Barney Frank, Bill Clinton come to mind don’t forget R-David Vitter R-Larry Craig stayed in power.
oh sorry Alf but in stupid sex scandals the conservatives have no problem holding there own in numbers of offenders and types of sex scandal.
I think we need to put John Ensign and John Edwards in an iron cage match.
Their is one difference, the conservatives are often elected on so called Family Values (their definition of F.V.) and so they are creepy stupid and hypocrites where as progressive are only creepy stupid.
dance monkey dance
oh sorry Alf but in stupid sex scandals the conservatives have no problem keeping up with liberals
that god you live up to raptured all the good christians a few weeks ago and you are still here why has she forsaken you?
conservative=fearful hypocrite
#41 Hmm. Has disgraced former Puke speaker Newt Gangrene weighed in on this?
Surely, drug addict and sweaty pile, Rush Limpburg should have interviewed disgraced former speaker with a criminal record for his thoughts on this urgent matter.
They are above the law?
What law did Weiner break?
Its not illegal to lie to the press
Its not illegal send suggestive photos to adults.
Limbaugh Mr. Glass House! has been married four times. He has been, arrested and bought his way out of his drug issues and is a hypocrite (like most conservatives) as he was condemning illegal drug use while on illegal drugs. I think Denver still has an arrest warrant out on him for attempting to insight riots. Probably more but that’s just I can remember off the top of my head. Rush that silver spoon fed law breaker is not one to talk about being above the law.
Oh and you might start looking for another hero, with his lack of heath, inability to stop over eating and smoking he might not be long for this earth. Michael Weiner sounds right up your alley assuming you not an anti-Semite. He’s seems to have that whole fascist, racist, homophobic, Islamophobic, bigotednesss spreadding hatred thing you go for down pat. I worry he doesn’t get enough exercise and is even older that Rush.
Oh well there always Sarah enjoy.
“To others, a liar is not the sort of person you want as a Congressman.”
I agree and if you live in NY’s 9th start a petition for a Recall Election.
I don’t so it’s not my issue, but if I did I’d want someone in that seat representing us until the day a replacement can be sworn in. If that takes until the 2012 election so be it. And NY’s 9th maybe ok with this and forgive him.
“I blame your progressive indoctrination,”
Oh so wrong I’m an undeclared independent.
“secularist doctrine one must obey without question, and distort reality to make it appear true.”??
no idea what you are talking/ranting about
“soft tyranny of progressivism”??
Don’t for get to take your lithium
“I blame your progressive indoctrination,”
The last time I looked, progressives aren’t indoctrinated at all, though right wingers like Alfie are frequently seen marching in lockstep.
“Oh, by the way, which one’s Pink?”
