Rep. Weiner A Notable No-Show At NY Celebrate Israel Parade (Dems unhappy with Peter Tweeter)
CBS NY ^ | 6/5/11 | Marcia Kramer

Posted on 06/05/2011 5:02:52 PM PDT by jimbo123

One notable no-show to Sunday’s Celebrate Israel Parade on Fifth Avenue was Congressman Anthony Weiner, whose absence apparently did not sit will with a top U.S. senator.

The New York representative’s Twitter scandal was the talk of the day, reports CBS 2’s Marcia Kramer.

It’s one of the biggest parades in New York City, full of flags, floats, Jewish pride, and politicians who attend to show their solidarity with the state of Israel.

However, Congressman Anthony Weiner, who has been marching in the parade since he arrived on the New York political scene as a city councilman in 1992, was marked absent.

The lewd photo sent from Weiner’s Twitter account appeared to keep him in hiding, which didn’t sit well with New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg.

It has floats, huh? I'm thinking of a particular float Congressman Weiner can carry.

It makes me laugh! I can't help it!

Remarkably, up in Canada they had an MP who did something similar this week but he was edged right out of thenews by a Parliamentary page who reminds me very much of the sort of young ladies who appear to have "followed Weiner":

FYI..the CBS-TV reporter who filed this story, Marcia Kramer, is the same one that Weiner called the Capitol Hill police to evict from his office, and threatened to have her arrested. Payback’s a bitch..aint’t it?

New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg.

The Lout was there? Really? I thought he was about 100 years old. Or dead.

Tony hasn’t been married to Huma for a year yet, and he’s following dozens of 20-something hotties on Tweater.

Marrying a Muzzie must not provide much stimulation. Then again maybe Huma’s back with Hilly?

At least he is not willing to tarnish the image of his tribe.
Good for him.

Weiner had a scheduling conflict - had to go to the mosque with Huma.

FTA:

“Everywhere I go, people are talking about his – it’s amazing,” City Councilman Domenic Recchia Jr. said. “The big question people are having, and I think he has to explain, is why he just won’t report this.”

DUH!! Maybe it's those little things called "perjury" and the False Statements Act. If he reports it, then he's gling to have to answer, on pain of serious prosecution for false statements and perjury, whether he was the email's author and the one who took the infamous pic, both of which he was. That's something he can't do, hence the evasions and refusal to make a report.
