Repeated infidelity without any actual physical contact has got to be one of the most uniquely stupid ways someone has ever destroyed their career and marriage.

Think in terms of cyber man whores and cyber sluts, in general. lol

As disturbing as Anthony Weiner is I really don't see what Child Protective Services would charge him with. Laying on your bed with your infant child and taking a picture isn't against the law.
You, like me, could question that such a charge might be politically motivated. In fact, the NY Post has an article today confirming that the Administration for (NYC) Children's Services has launched a probe.

Here is the article.

For those above who doubted my statement that the Clinton campaigned arranged this and then planted the story, you obviously disagree with the majority of Americans that Clinton is untrustworthy, and you will say anything, regardless of the truth, if it benefits your candidate. Every reader should question everything you write in this forum.

He has a problem. Some weird tech thing with sexual desire involved or just the thrill of showing off. Who knows. It doesn't matter if he is married to a dog or Miss America, makes no difference that he still has a problem.
Is this really something new, where one can get sexual excitement assisted by technology without any actual one on one personal contact?
I suppose this is not that different from some guy whacking off to computer porn in the basement while the wife is upstairs asleep.
In the old days they had PlayBoy and Hustler magazine.
I never heard of someone sent off to get professional help because they subscribed to PlayBoy or watched porn on VHS.

How does a society regulate this?
And what is considered crossing the line?
In the future we may have the sex tubes like woody Allen envisioned in his movie SLEEPER.
Would using the sex tube be considered disqualifying for holding public office?
Especially when the guy is also married to Miss America 2075?
What is the difference between a glossy photo or a digital snapshot?
Sexting or computer porn?
PlayBoy or VHS porn?
And the whole time the little woman and the kids are all asleep upstairs.

If two consenting adults sext porn photos to each other, or just suggestive underwear photos showing a bulge here and there, should those individuals go to jail or be sent to some looney farm for sexual addiction treatment?
And what about DirecTV, Dish and Cable?
Plenty of porn there for easy access.
Should everyone with a satellite dish on their roof be sent off to some psychiatric institution?

Is this entire matter with Weiner blown up out of proportion?
Isn't this between him and his wife?
Did he actually commit a crime?
Or was a it all about the sleeping kid with him in his bed?
If mom and dad have a satellite dish on the roof and kids in the house, is that breaking the law?
And has anyone talked with Woody Allen about this?

I don't have time to go through your rant question by question. Simply this for the big picture. Weiner has a sex addiction problem. But all the attention has to do with him having been a Congressman, who resigned in disgrace because of this publicity and it being uncomfortably close to the 2012 presidential election. More so the public is interested, because he has run for the mayor of NYC twice. The second time, his high tech interests were repeated, and made public once again. His wife Huma, stood by him in public, while he claimed this was no big deal. And now Huma may become the most powerful woman in the government behind Clinton, while her husband is doing it again and again just 3 months before the 2016 presidential election. Clinton and Huma don't want this distraction. Public opinion is not in the court of Carlos Danger. Having his 4 yo son in bed with him while sexting, makes him seem like even a bigger scumbag. And if the most powerful woman in the country wants to manufacture charges against him, he maybe screwed (in the non-sexual sense). If you don't believe that she has the influence and the vengeful mindset to do this, I'd say you are a very naive person.

I'm glad you are avoiding any serious thinking. How's the waste management job going?

Pretty good, so I can recognize when someone is full of shit pretty easily.

Don't you guys watch House of Cards? I think he's being set up. First you marry and have the keep-a-man-baby, then work hard night and day for years on the Hillary campaign. Under those circumstances a man can get lonely, and he might fall for the attractions of a beatiful young lady.

So one thing leads to another, you sent some messages, then some dickpics and all of a sudden your account is hacked (but by who?) and they're all over the news. Poor Huma takes it like a champ but stands by her man (well, she just keeps working day and night). What woman couldn't relate to that?

But he's still lonely and the attractive young ladies keep showing up, so eventually you have to do the right thing and divorce. Men are dirty pigs after all, and if he can't help himself, she will help herself. Plus you get some nice alimony.

Usually this would be correct.

Politicians are a special case because such behavior subjects them to blackmail.

To compromise a target you look for weakness in them or people close to them, Wiener would have been a prime candidate.

Here's the thing: I can think Clinton is not trustworthy, without buying into your wild paranoia.
I guess it's moot since I haven't got a candidate in this race anyway.

So, you're like Donald? "I watch the shows! All I need to to know, I learn from the shows!"

Not really, but House of Cards was enjoyable. But I think politicians should read books too and I would recommend Alkibiades for starters.

So what do you think of my theory?

I should have followed the time tested mantra, "Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level,
then beat you with experience."

You should perhaps go seeking people that are not idiots to have conversations with elsewhere.

It is just a thought.

Gotta be some mental issues going on here. This sort of compulsive and self-destructive behavior isn't something demonstrated by a healthy person.

Agreed. This guy is one sick puppy.

...I mean one sick T Dog.

Thankfully no one can infringe on his right to purchase guns.

Right guys?

Sorry, that's unrelated.

Do you have some concern that compulsion to send photos of your junk to people is somehow related to shooting up civilians?

I bet if you dig deep enough, this 15 year old girl probably had a friend who had a parent who contributed to the Clinton Foundation at some point. Obvious frame-up.
First, I doubt your conspiracy theory. But even if true, she is 15 years old. So there is no defense for a "frame up".

"Weiner repeatedly told the unidentified teen how “hard” and horny he was, at one point boasting that after sex with him, she would “limp for a week,” the Daily Mail reported." From the link above.

From another recent story. http://nypost.com/2016/09/21/anthony-weiner-accused-of-sexting-relationship-with-15-year-old-girl/

"Weiner would ask her to dress up in plaid skirts for roleplaying with him as a teacher.

“He had some rape fantasies. It would just be him showing up at my house when my dad was out of town,” the girl said. “And just start undressing me, being forceful, asking me if I want to be dominated, strange questions.”

"“(Weiner’s) son was in the bathtub at the time just downstairs,” she said. “So he would yell at his son to check on him, and then he asked me to take my clothes off, and just started saying these really sexual things.”"
