Weiner’s track record regarding the “truth” is not very good.

What. Did he go to a sex therapist?
Rehab on the taxpayer’s dime.

We’re supposed to dismiss his (and all “special” people’s) moral depravity because they go to “rehab”.

Rehab implies that their moral failings are a sickness, ie NOT THEIR FAULT!

Of course not! These people are special! Our moral and intellectual superiors! They have to be treated that way!

I hear the wires running from testicles to a car battery is good therapy for Weiner’s condition.

Smoke them a bit and then Weiner only has has his mouth to blame if he gets into anymore trouble.

I’m not sure it’s possible to rehabilitate utter stupidity.

“I think this is a prank to make fun of my name. When you’re named ‘Weiner,’ that happens a lot.”

And just think how much worse he’s made it in the future for people named Weiner. He’s taken a juvenile joke and ressurected it with a new backstory. How pathetic. A cushy position in Congress and *that’s* what he has accomplished. Well done, sir, well done.

My bet is that he will hide out during the summer recess, come back after Labor Day with a very low profile and hang on until November, 2012. If he still has a district he will get re-elected. Then he will state, accurately, that the system works, his constisuents have decided.

His constituents elected him to represent them. If he’s in a
treatment center he can’t do that. There ought to be a groundswell of folks demanding him to resign, and let someone do the job.

A Jew married to a Moslem who consulted with Clinton and Obama about his penis? How in the HELL will a therapist unwind all of THAT Freudian garbage?

Since Wiener has talked to both Obama and Clinton, and they had a three-way about what is means to have your penis discussed in the public domain (Gurnee, Lewinsky, Twitter), Weiner may be all talked-out - he spoke with all the known resident experts in the field of press coverage of a politician's penis (Uncle Teddy was unavailable, and Arnold is too far removed).

Bottom Line? Not curable. He waited till he was 46 to get married. He has been doing this for years. He is a narcissist of the worst kind. He sings three verses of “You’re Just To Good to Be True” in the mirror every morning. He will die a very lonely man.

Weiner checked himself into "Fecal Manor" for observation.

You can always tell when a liberal is in deep doo-doo---they go into their tried-and-true "Victimization Act." Watch Weiner pull out (no pun intended) "Victimization---a Play in Four Acts" to pin the blame for his travails on others. Weiner's second act.......he'll try to extort taxpayers and/or get the courts to bail him out.

THE EPITOME OF CHUTZPAH----Another ruse in the "Victimization Act"is to refocus voters' attention by creating new victims. WEINER actually came up with some kind of Sexual Predator Bill to protect innocent people from perverts like himself. Next Weiner will start a non-profit for those "victimized by sexual abuse."

Seems to me, “Tough Tony” makes fun of his own name.

Using first grade German, the correct spelling for “Weener” should be “Wiener,” i.e., a resident of Vienna.

“Weiner,” is pronounced “Winer” in German-—not quite “Whiner,” but close-—refers to somebody involved with wine.

Of course, the “w” becomes “v” in Deutsch.

I don’t know what his parents call themselves but it looks suspiciouly like the bitchy congressman doesn’t want to be orally called “Rep. Whiner,” so he came up with the “Weener” pronunciation for “Weiner.”

Tony, if your name is a problem and a temptation for comedy, CHANGE IT!

"Where Congressman Wiener made a tremendous error, after he made a tremendous error in his personal judgement, was he made a tremendous error in his professional judgement," said political strategist Camara Clifton with the Magnolia Group.

More Political Correctness to attempt to diminish the impact of his acts!

He made no errors!

An error is An act, assertion, or belief that unintentionally deviates from what is correct, right, or true.

To be an error, the conduct must be unintentional.

Therapy????? Hook him up to the jumper cables - that way when he says he doesn't remember squat, he'll be telling the truth.

He will pay a private center.

But that addiction -behavior is very hard to treat and his character of generally lying and the narcisism makes it even more difficult.
