Kudos for perfect timing.
Who called the cops in Delaware?

Press release was read on Maddow. But no time for analysis or more than perfunctory debunking.

Friday is usually when you dump news you don't want people to notice. But Friday night is perfect if you want to eliminate the sanity of Maddow and encourage another bout of lynch mob hysteria.

I congratulate Fox and friends for a perfectly rolled-out "scandal" which will now successfully assassinate another effective liberal asset.

Can't wait to see who starts calling for Thomas to recuse himself now.

Can't wait to see which of our people we help them destroy next.

Kudos.

7. Okay.
But you can get her online and I highly recommend it. Even if you have to wait an hour or so. Friday's telecast is probably up on her site now.

I don't have cable and I watch her online.

Somewhere toward the end of her show she warned us that things might be getting worse for Weiner with an extremely serious face. Shortly thereafter (there are so many breaks I don't know if it was immediately afterwards) she read the release which noted that the FAMILY SAID NOTHING UNTOWARD HAPPENED.

But the "17 year old girl" meme was out there and the expected hysteria ensued. Weiner did sent PMs to a 17 year old. Maybe even when she was 16, let's make it worse.

The cops dragged her PC down to the station and looked at everything she had. No crime was found. Somebody here made a huge fuss over the mother saying two PMs and Weiner's office saying five. I assume the mother didn't know that the girl requested Weiner to follow her again after begging off because of right wing harassment. The 3 extra PMs were after that.

But Rachel won't be able to say anything till Monday, will she?

Olbermann, however, is going online with a special comment TODAY.

2. If you want to defund Social Security, you don't want Weiner around.

6. absolutely sickening and truly "offensive" witch hunt; sad testament to the dismal state of affairs


It's almost unreal to see people so whipped into hysteria and so susceptible to the most blatantly obvious corporate propaganda.

8. I would like an answer to that question as well.
Who called the police?
What accusation was made that led them to investigate?
Why were Murdoch's crews (Fox and NY Post) already at the house?

11. No. They went looking for the gun. And TOOK IT.
Pretending this wasn't an orchestrated campaign looking for ANYTHING they could gin up into a scandal is hypocritical and...uncomprehending.

Frankly, men who fight hard for others tend to have dick issues. Maybe it's a hormone overload. Maybe it has to do with knowing they've made targets of themselves. Martin Luther King, Jr. certainly knew people wanted to kill him.

Instituting a moral purity test which our randy Founding Fathers carefully LEFT OUT of the constitution would be an act of suicide.

You are now saying men who masturbate cannot serve in Congress.
