population which he sees as worthy of getting pictures of his dick and bullshit comparisons of his wife's genitalia etc don't bother you.

My problem isn't the moral stuff SO MUCH. I still think he's a shit for doing this and it draws a line about a fundamental contempt not just for himself but for 51 percent of the population .. .female... who haven't exactly been having a good time with men in power lately. I think he's nuts and his judgment can't be trusted. He's either a colossal dick for doing this AGAIN after the last time or a sick man. Neither version needs to be mayor of our largest city.

I personally think he is like them. I think you can't be pissed at one group on technicalities and let another sexual douche bag get off. He continued and mocked his wife. That is sick, completely disgusting about women and as a woman who has had a couple of years of men telling us we are shit, I'm not willing to give him a pass. He's either the stupidest meanest fucker alive or a sick man.

It appears that we shall disagree on this point which is fine. I don't intend to make a point of making my point 'win'. I am of the generation that saw better men in office. I am unwilling to swing this low and give him a pass when he didn't take the last one. Dumb ass guy.

Saying this is what some people have said about them in the past....and that was why they wouldn't VanillaRhapsody Jul 2013 #178

It is not about the sex; it is about Weiner's poor judgment and lack of personal self-control. kwassa Jul 2013 #186

How? He never even had actual sex.... VanillaRhapsody Jul 2013 #190

This is a different character flaw, and a different lack of judgment. kwassa Jul 2013 #192

How so? They didn't lie about their pecadillos? You think other men haven't made THAT kinda mistake? VanillaRhapsody Jul 2013 #193

He lied BECAUSE some people were going to judge him harshly simply because he has unique sexual VanillaRhapsody Jul 2013 #194

He lied because he was still sending sexual pictures and texts. kwassa Jul 2013 #203

because he doesn't want to be judged EXACTLY how he is being? VanillaRhapsody Jul 2013 #204
