Peters and Weiners and Bare, Oh, My!

From the "You can't make this stuff up" department, an Australian politician named "Peter" has had to resign after sexting a picture of his "down under" in a glass of red wine.


We may have found the Australian version of Anthony Weiner. Peter Dowling, a member of the Queensland parliament in Australia, ended up resigning in disgrace this week after he got caught in a sexting scandal of his own. But it wasn’t just that detail that got him in trouble, it was also his misuse of government travel funds with the woman he was having the affair with, and the fact that in one of the sexts he had his penis in a glass of red wine.

Dowling, who, by the way, used to chair the Ethics committee, was caught after his mistress, Fiona Simpson, sent a letter to the parliament detailing exactly what kind of scandalous activity he was up to.
(Emphasis mine)

Perhaps, he should have gone with a nice Chardonnay???

Huma Takes a Break from Weiner

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Doesn’t sound like Huma will be A-bedin’ Weiner any time soon!


Anthony Weiner's wife is taking time off from her senior job with the State Department -- as well as time off from the randy former representative, The Post has learned.

While Weiner, 46, heads to an "intensive" rehab program to recover from the sexting scandal that cost him his congressional career, his 35-year-old spouse, Huma Abedin, will be relaxing at an undisclosed location.

"She is definitely taking time off away from her husband and chilling," a source said. "And he's going some place for at least a couple of weeks."

Weiner Heckled at News Conference -video

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


Anthony Weiner resigned today and except for the heckling, it was a real snoozefest.



Now, if he wasn't such a narcissist, who cannot wean himself from the camera, (either video or handheld), he could have simply sent out a press release and stayed hiding under whichever rock Huma hasn't tossed his way yet.

And like a typical narcissist, he cannot see what he has done that's so terribly wrong. He resigns not because of moral failing or weakness, but because it's a "distraction" from the very important things he was doing to, er, for the American public.

He will undoubtedly go through the kabuki of rehabilitation and then probably run again for office (unless he cut a deal for some appointment, with the Dems, to just go away quietly.) Considering pols like Gerry Studds (D-Can't keep it Zipped) who was reelected seven more times after having been censured by the House for having sex with a 17 year old congressional page, the bar is pretty low for Democrat standards of conduct.

The Dems will fit Weiner in.

Anthony Weiner Action Figure

And do you have to even guess "which action"? P.T. Barnum said, "You'll never go broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public". With that I give you, the Weiner action figure. They sell two versions. I understand that the anatomically correct figure is $10 more. (I wonder what that comes out to per pound?)

The shorts say "Tweet this".

You can add this to your collection of "Obama Seal Team Six" and "Clinton Trousers at Half Mast" action figures. (Lewinsky on her knees and cigar sold separately!)

Anthony Weiner - Holden Myown (pics)

Anthony Weiner, the gift that keeps on giving, posted pictures of himself, holding himself, in the House Members gym. Pictures via TMZ

As a caped crusader, Weiner's alter ego is apparently "Holden Myown".

"Weiner Told Porn Star to Lie, Offered PR Help"

Weiner Twitter follower Ginger Lee


"I can't say with certitude if it's my crotch, but I certainly wouldn't mind if you lied for me. I'll even loan you some professional help! "

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.'


Yeah. The trolls are out parroting the "silly" line, too. As if a Congressman who lies repeatedly to the public is no longer a big deal in the Era of Democrat politics, where campaign promises all come with an expiration date.

Genette Cordova "Worn Out by Weiner Scandal"

...as opposed to Congressman Weiner's underwear, which should have been worn in!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


"Weinergate" has put a Seattle college cutie through the wringer -- jeopardizing her academic dreams, embarrassing her family and shattering her privacy. "I'm just collateral damage," Gennette Cordova, 21, lamented in explaining how her world was turned upside-down when she wound up on the receiving end of a lewd, underwear-clad crotch shot sent from Rep. Anthony Weiner's Twitter account.

"I just want this to be over," she told The Post yesterday during an exclusive photo shoot and interview near her Bellingham, Wash., college campus. Cordova thinks the package-hugging picture -- which Weiner "can't say with certitude" isn't his -- was meant for somebody else and landed in her Twitter account by mistake.


Genette's 15 minutes of fame is apparently a little more than she bargained for! Is it politically correct to call her a "cutie" though? Well, it is the New York Post!


Cordova is one of 198 people, many of them young, beautiful women, whom Weiner follows on Twitter.


Nothing creepy about that!

Until recently, the congressman also followed stripper and porn actress Ginger Lee, 28, who openly gushes about her "Mr. Sexy Congressman" on social-network sites. "Her name is Ginger -- it makes sense he might have mixed us up," Cordova said, noting that two of the first three letters of their names are the same.


Hmm. Perhaps the Congressman is just "all thumbs" when it comes to Twittering? Maybe he should pass his photos past the Hanes inspector next time?

'I Can't Say with Certitude if it's My Crotch'

Nine words I thought I'd never hear together: 'I can't say with certitude if it's my crotch'

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
Weiner Twitter follower Ginger Lee


What a strange thing to say. I think, if I were to take a picture of my crotch, wearing only my underwear, I'd think that would be memorable enough to take note of. If he was in the habit of having someone else take pictures of him, close up, in his underwear (particularly when Mr. Happy was "happy"), I'd think that would be pretty memorable as well.

How does one not know whether or not an alleged picture of you, taken in your underwear, is you or not? Are not the possibilities that it was taken by you, (Memorable) or it was taken by someone else, close up with your consent? (Also memorable) Or, it was taken by someone else, close up without your consent? (Memorable and perhaps actionable!)

Do you not recognize the underwear, Congressman Weiner? Could you be in the habit of wearing someone else's underwear and that's why you don't recognize it?

Could the picture have been taken by someone whom you presume to take a lot of pictures of different men's crotches, close up, when they are "happy"? Is the uncertainty caused by the unreliable nature of someone you allowed to photograph your crotch, not knowing if this shot in particular was yours? Or do you simply not remember the incident because drugs and/or alcohol may have been involved?

Somehow, in most of the alternatives, Congressman Weiner, you don't come across as a sympathetic victim. Maybe you should just quit while you're behind? (Of course, it wasn't your behind that got you into trouble in the first place!)

Update: In order to be perfectly fair with Mr. Weiner, in the age of photoshop, he may have been thinking, I don't know if that's me, I don't remember it being that big! Our apologies for not including every possibility!

Weinergate Update: Weiner Pulls a Boner, Calls Hill Reporter, "jackass"

Wienergate update


By the Left Coast Rebel

First, a refresher on the term my grandmother used for a mistake:

bon·er/ˈbōnər/Noun

1. A stupid mistake.

I know I poo-poo'ed Weinergate earlier today and thought it would end up dust in the wind of the 24-hour news cycle lamestream media within a day.

Guess not.

Memo to a Wiener: act combative and elusive with the press and (even though they love you), damned if those sharks don't circle!

This is simply too good to not post:



ABC News:

Rep. Anthony Weiner’s response to the flap around a lewd photo posted from his Twitter account went from dismissive and joking over the weekend to frustrated and combative Tuesday in Washington, when the Congressman became agitated with reporters and called a TV producer a “jackass.”

Jackass? Blood in the water! It's pretty funny watching such a narcisstic tool self implode so quickly.
