Malodery you are tiresome.  Pay attention.  Read my post again.  I said:

 

"Looking at the bigger picture we allow these legislators to ignore the constitution, their oaths of office,  and conduct themselves like nitwits.  No wonder they think they can get away with anything."

 

I'm not focusing on weiner's tweets.  I'm focused on the bigger picture.  That being the overall lack of respect for the constitution by the democrats except where it serves their purpose.  That purpose being votes and power.

 

But, you probably knew what I was talking about, but had only available to you the comeback you posted; and needed to pretend it was about his narcissistic and immoral tweets.  Not to mention his lying and weaseling.

What bigger picture are you talking about if not the constitution?

These are my words, not a cut and paste.

 

These guys in Congress and the Senate of course are imperfect, just like all of us.  The problem is that a lot of them, like Weiner don't believe they are imperfect. 

Looking at the bigger picture we allow these legislators to ignore the constitution, their oaths of office,  and conduct themselves like nitwits.  No wonder they think they can get away with anything.

 

There is no constitutional crises here.   As far as we know now, no laws were even broken.  

A guy got some some gratificaton in exchanging indecent or lewd pictures with some women.   It was stupid.    He should have known that someone would let it out to the public.   Or probably someone found out about it and set him up.   And he got caught.   Most people think of it as inappropriate but it is not illegal as long as everyone is an adult.

 

 

 

 When this member of Congress claimed that his acct had been hacked the wheels started turning very fast to find the facts as the security of the country is jeopardized if persons in Congress and/or administration have their computer/blackberry accts hacked. So this is not as simple as you are purporting msmal.

 

I thought I was told it was his personal device, not his government blackberry or whatever they use.   And I  believe he now admits it was not hacked.

 

So now that we know that his blackberry was not hacked, now it has been revealed that this man has been doing this for YEARS which indicates some kind of compulsion

 

How can you diagnose it as a compulsion?   For a comparison, not all gamblers are compulsive gamblers.

 

which indicates he needs some kind of therapy.

 

More medical talk which I'm guessing is beyond your training.

 

When this person does not acknowledge to himself that when he gets caught it will have very negative consequences to his marriage, his career, his reputation - that man has a real problem because he can not control himself.

 

He's acknowledged he has a problem and is aware it has an effect on marriage etc.

 

Are we sure this is the only area of his life that he  can not control?

 

No, we aren't, but I'm not even going to speculate if it's the only one.   There's no reason to believe otherwise.

He's a liberal.  So there's every reason to believe otherwise.

What's really sad is that you're even having this particular conversation.  This idiot stands in front of cameras for days, lies through his teeth again and again, and now wants the trust of the voters to do his job?  Here's a thought for his next speech....."I have no morals.  I am a pervert.  I don't care if my pictures went to minors.  I lied and looked you straight in the eye while doing it.  I have no sense of ethics.  I am a horrible role model.  Therefore, I will resign my office. "

 

Simple.  Direct.  To the point.  The very idea that someone will defend this piece of trash is an good indicator of the root of the problems we face in this country.
