Anthony Wiener has problems. He’s a politician with a last name that is
one of the best sources of puns and double entrendres in political
history. He’s also a pervert. One the one hand, it’s great to have a
politician with such a great last name, but on the other hand, his perversion
is a bit distracting to anything good he may provide in politics.
His perversion of choice
is sending sexually suggestive texts to women.
Anthony also seems to take joy in sending pictures of his male
reproductive parts to women. This is
bad but when you know he’s also married with a child, it’s even worse.
At
one time Anthony Weiner was a powerful Democratic congressman from the state of
New York. He would pound his chest and
point to Republicans and battle them every moment of every day.
“Congressman
Weiner, how do you respond to allegations from the Republican Party that the
sky is blue?”
“That’s
what Republicans do; they exclude every other color that should have a chance
to be the color of the sky. I would like
them to consider that other colors also have a right to be the color of the
sky. These exclusionary policies of the
Republicans will not go unchallenged by us Democrats.”
“According
to scientists there is no way to control the color of the sky.”
“That
was probably said by Republican scientists and is proof of their desire to
deprive other colors their rights to be the color of the sky. They also deprive necessary benefits to
lesser colors of the sky and are responsible for tornados.”
In
the public world, Anthony Weiner was a congressman growing in power and prestige. Then a big mistake was made by Congressman
Weiner in 2011. He sent a naughty
picture of himself to his entire Twitter account. The naughty picture was only meant only for
one woman. Initially
Anthony Weiner denied it.
“Me
take a picture like that of myself? I
don’t know how to take pictures of myself.
I don’t know how to use a camera.
I don’t even know what my male reproductive parts look like. Those pictures can’t be me.”
The liberal
media and especially talk shows rushed to his defense. They would allow him to sit on their laps as they stroked his hair and pointed to the camera. They'd then speak is accusatory tones.
“Bad,
bad, bad Republicans, how could you? You
just want to hurt our Anthony. He said it wasn’t him and it wasn’t. A fine congressman who stands up to you spiteful,
bad Republicans. Did you hear him? He doesn’t even know what his male reproductive parts look
like. You're all such bad people.”
Then
the accusations turned out to be true.
Anthony Weiner, married man with a pregnant wife was sending naughty
texts to women. The liberal media didn’t
believe it until Anthony Weiner held a press conference and admitted his guilt.
“Heeeeey,
everybody, sorry about the naughty text stuff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah I know, it was bad. Let’s not get crazy here. I’m a politician and you know what we’re like
when it comes to women. Don’t let this
distract me from fighting for the rights of all colors to be the color of the
sky.”
This
did not sit well with many women in the Democratic Party or many women around
the world. This confused Anthony Weiner. He thought about Bill Clinton. He thought what he did wasn’t so bad. He didn’t actually touch any females and his
behavior didn’t involve a cigar or a blue dress.
Anthony Weiner was still asked to resign from office.
“Hey,
why should I resign from office? I never
touched anybody and it didn’t involve a cigar or a blue dress. What’s the problem?”
“You’re not a popular president who took credit for Republican laws that created a good economy. You can’t even take credit for the success of Republican ideas.”
“You’re not a popular president who took credit for Republican laws that created a good economy. You can’t even take credit for the success of Republican ideas.”
“I
have fought hard to give other colors the right to be the color of the sky.”
“Nobody is
impressed. Resign.”
So
Anthony Weiner resigned from Congress.
He wasn’t done with politics or sending naughty texts. With this background, he felt he had what it
took to run for mayor of New York City.
During
his campaign for NYC mayor, it was discovered that Anthony Weiner had continued
to send naughty texts to women. He sent
his naughty texts after resigning from congress, after the birth of his child,
after a magazine story claiming he had changed and while campaigning. He never stopped.
Once
this was discovered, Anthony again had another press conference. This time his wife Huma Mahmood Abedin spoke and expressed her support for him. She said the words “I forgive him;
I believe in him, I love him.” Her body
language said “He’s disgusting, he’ll probably never touch me again and he had better
get into some type of high public office where I can expand my political career
or we’re done.”
It
appears that Huma Mahmood Abedin is dealing with this situation the same way as
her boss and mentor, Hillary Clinton. I’m
sure Huma was upset when Hillary told her Anthony’s naughty texts were actually worse
than a cigar and a blue dress.
As of
this writing, Anthony Weiner continues with his quest to become the mayor
of New York City. His wife is publicly standing
by him. Should he be married to some women I know his life would be different. Anthony would be dodging bullets as his wife chased
him with a cigar in her mouth firing an automatic weapon and yelling "It's
husband Anthony season."
I don’t know what I find most disturbing about this situation. His perverse behavior as a high-ranking public official is disturbing. The fact that he lied about it and continued with reckless abandon is upsetting. His wife standing by him made sense the first time. Doing it a second time made Huma Mahmood Abedin look like a Hillary clone. Maybe the most disturbing thing could happen on election day. If his name is still on the ballot, there will be people who actually vote for him.
