Let me be brief. When it first came out, I didn’t wanna touch it.... … ……… . . . …….. …. ………. .......................... .................... .. .....
I mean c’mon! This is manna from comedy heaven. Being an amateur, I figured I’d take my time, leaving all the great puns and innuendos to the real comedians. I even waited for the smoke to clear after every Tom, and Harry, Dicks had their way with Weiner.
But for those of you like me, who still hold out on politics until we find away to transmit the CNN Newsfeed ticker from our Iphones directly to our nipples, (for more convenience) might not be as up to date. So allow me to recap for you…
Anthony Weiner, member of the House of Representatives, was caught tweeting a photo of his genitalia on the internet to numerous women.
Immediately, Weiner discharged, stating the photos were the work of a hacker. He later recanted and apologized, not being as “tech savvy” as he should be. Sources say he made an honest mistake, believing “Public” was misspelled on his settings.
Though the media blows pictures way out of proportion, Weiner remained boner fide. Instead of stepping down, Weiner pushed through the fabric of this scandal swelling with a big head. He proved impervious to his critics. Weiner stood strong. But his opponents were loud and in bigger numbers. Even his own party left him high and dry.
Members of the Democratic Party insisted on his resign, calling the scandal a “big distraction” though constituents and those closest to him remarked it’s more “medium-sized” in comparison to other politicians’ scandals.
Regrettably the ego, that kept him in office, had become flaccid. His tactics to resurrect his political career were tasteless had been perceived as tasteless and desperate by the general public.
What made things worse, in a misguided attempt to appear non-chalant through self- deprecation, Weiner greeted his fellow representatives with, “Hey! How’s it publicly hanging!?” He even asked House Speaker Jon Boehner if he wanted to borrow his gavel. No matter how smooth he hoped to be, his fortitude was plagued with vain.

Eventually, the pressure led to an unsettling climax, and Weiner had to hang it all up. News that his wife was pregnant leaked. On Tuesday, (date) Weiner was filmed in live stream and resigned. He apologized to the public and his pregnant wife for the dick move.
Personally, I can agree that he made a very severe and stupid mistake. It hurt those closest to him and will cripple his political career. Having said all of that, I have to give credit where it’s due. To try and stay in office through such a reprehensible and humiliating blunder, it takes balls. But that’s a totally different picture.
