Larry Flynt offers job to Weiner

By: Reid J. Epstein June 17, 2011 07:57 AM EDT

Hustler Magazine publisher Larry Flynt knows Anthony Weiner is out of work, and he wants to do something about it.

In a column on the Huffington Post, Flynt offered the sexting scandal-tarred congressman an unspecified job at Flynt Management Group, LLC at a 20 percent hike over his Washington salary — which would come out to over $200,000 per year.

Flynt says he’d also pay for Weiner’s move to Los Angeles, as the job requires.

“While this employment opportunity is being offered in large part due to your qualifications and clear passion for making a change, I feel that your unfortunate resignation is a prime example of unfounded political pressure and the hypocrisy that has invaded democracy in Washington, D.C .,” Flynt wrote.

Flynt, who delivers his magazine for free to the office of each member of Congress, has consistently been a thorn in the side to Washington politicians involved in sex scandals: When President Bill Clinton was being impeached, Flynt offered a $1 million bounty for evidence of Republican philandering. The subsequent publication led to the resignation of would-be GOP House Speaker Bob Livingston of Louisiana.

Wow, that would be a real career enhancer for his wife - having a husband who works for Larry Flynt.

Flynt is in tight with the Clintons. I wouldn't be surprised if this offer hadn't been engineered through Huma's *mentor*.

You mean I can get a free subscription to Hustler if I’m elected to Congress? Now I know why so many of our illustrious leaders want to hang onto office. It’s the perks!

Did you plan on this thread immediately following the "official Friday silliness thread" or was it just coincidental?

A big reason Weiner married her is because he can tell people he married Uma.

This is almost like the Westboro Baptist Church lunatics.

Westboro Baptists clearly hate Christianity -- so they try to make Christians look bad. They show up at military funerals and shout "God hates fags!" It's reverse advertising for the folks they claim to represent.

Now Larry Flynt is trying to help a disgraced Democrat by giving him a lucrative job in the porn industry.

Hmmmmmmmmmm. I'm not sure that's really going to help the Democrats, but you go right ahead Larry, I support you on this particular idea.

But Larry Flynt really does like the Democrats. He is one. After-all, their values are more in line with his than the Republicans.

$200k sounds good but I don’t know if I would want to live in California.

Oh, I agree. In that respect, Flynt isn’t like the Westboro Baptists. But he’s an idiot. He’s giving them an opportunity to look worse than they already do. He’s a friend of the Democrats — but not a good friend.

A letter to the Editor of the New York Daily News was published yesterday regarding Weiner and it was a hoot. To sum it up the lady wrote, if Weiner were the last man on earth she would switch to women. Ouch!

They show up at military funerals and shout "God hates fags!"

They started out at the funerals of homosexuals, and there wasn't much complaint from the larger Christian community about them. It's only when they started protesting at soldier funerals that the rest of Christians in this country realized they are insane.
