Oh come on. This is the oldest one in the book. Blame your problems on some mental or drinking problem you have no control over.

Or at least the liberal view is that nobody has control over any impulses, thus, we have to excuse whatever led to a good Democrat seeking treatment for whatever it is.

If he has to go to a treament center, is he really able to discharge the duties of a member of Congress? Just asking.

So now the liberals and the MSM will excuse him because he’s seeking treatment. The MSM will say how he shed light on a major societal problem, rather than condemning him for the behavior which led to where he is now.

Mark Foley didn’t get such nice treatment after his lewd e-mails to male congressional pages. Of course Foley was an evil Republican, while Weiner is a good Democrat. The “D” after his name dictates how his story will be treated.

_____________________________________________________________________

And the best part of all is that his Congressional Health Care will foot the bill for his stay and “treatment”.

In other words we, the taxpayers, will be picking up the tab for this ploy to keep his career alive.

The American voters need to check themselves in a center teaching the Constitution.

The great doors to the white House need to be opened with a Conga Line of Wiener-Pelosi-BOzo-Biden-Reid and Frank dancing their way to a paddy wagon.

Watch...he’ll return from rehab in two months or so, hold a presser, and say...”Look, I admit it, I was nuts. I did lots of crazy things. But now I’m cured. And I realized that the Dems are whacko, so as of now, I’m a Republican..”

Weiner began his political career as an aide to Schumer. Birds of a feather and all that jazz.

I’m guessing there is a 13 year old girl somewhere, or maybe a 15 year old boy.

You know what they say in Washington ...

"The only thing that derails a politician's career is being caught in bed with a dead underage girl or a live underage boy ..."

Just sayin' ...

Yes, but Schumer actually acts like he has an image to protect. And he could pursue other career options outside of politics, too. He's a Harvard-educated lawyer and has some brains, and by all accounts he takes his position seriously.

Weiner had career aspirations to be a TV weather announcer (that's not a joke), majored in political science in college, and then got right into politics as a career. He's a loser who can't do anything outside of politics, and in particular he probably can't do anything outside of a political post where he's elected by New York City voters.

"He's a Harvard-educated lawyer..."

Schumer the perfect "SAT fixer" is part of the DC ruling class that don't need no stinking rules.

You watch..O'Reilly and the rest of the "smart" socialist indoctrinated corrupted class will turn out another EU style elitist "ruling class" buddy for the Repub nom. Romney is already in the starting gate and getting all the bets "that count". It's not even interesting anymore. We are regressing very rapidly to a pre-1776 state. Our elections are a paid media clown show. Is that too harsh?

"haha theres a diagnosis code for perversion? Now I’ve seen it all."

You have doubts about no rules and getting away with everything? How dare you! But that is still a problem that we can solve. Check yourself in for cynical rehab. Anything goes and all is forgiven. No consequences for anything..life is good.

People getting hurt is collateral damage in the progressive world. The ends justify the means. Have a nice day in the collective.
