Very Hottest Photos

More proof today of what I speculated last night regarding the progressive mindset on Anthony Weiner's actions:

“Anthony Weiner deserves to be supported and hopefully he will be mayor of New York one day. I’m serious. He is a Democrat [who] actually fights for the things liberals and progressive and rational people care about. I don’t know why he’s being thrown under the bus. He hasn’t done any — he hasn’t broke any laws.”

Those are the words of C-list comedian, D-list actress, and unreasoned progressive Janeane Garofalo. Nevertheless, they represent the sentiments of both Anthony Weiner and his supporters. He has been reliably progressive in the past. He will most certainly continue to be so. In that case, it does not matter that he, a married adult man, is sending photos of his penis to women via Twitter. Garofolo hastens to add Weiner has not broken any laws in order to legitimize her viewpoint, but I can virtually guarantee she completely dismissed bill Clinton’s felony of lying to a grand jury over the Monica Lewinsky scandal and said it was only a matter between him and his wife. So I am betting she does not care if Weiner committed a crime, either. Such would be a minor blip in a long record in the cause of holy progressivism.

The rest of the weiner affair is playing out just as predictably. In one breath, Nancy Pelosi says he can stay in the House. In the other, she changes her mind because other Democrat House leaders think he should go. Weiner is going to check into rehab to heal his ambiguous sex addiction or whatever they are calling it. He will have some sort of spiritual epiphany in rehab, watered down enough to satisfy secular progressives, but plausible enough to not be questioned by others, and resume where he left off.

I am curious to know who is going to pay for Weiner’s stint in rehab. He cannot afford it. I cannot imagine his wife is going to spring for it under the circumstances. This sounds like a gift from a concerned Democrat supporter. If so, I would like to know who, particularly if his long term plan for Weiner involves becoming mayor of New York City.
