I support Weiner

As a former New York resident. As a former New York photographer. As a man who wears underwear. As a former New Yorker who has internet access. As someone who has seen pictures on the internet. As someone who does not care. Leave Anthony Weiner alone.

He lied. I would too. So would the vast majority of everyone caught up in such an idiotic web of their own making. I am old enough to remember Blow Job Bill Clinton and the circus that ensued with that little slip up. At the time I kept wanting to turn away, my lord, the nightly news would report on oral sex in the oval office with a straight face. It was horrid. I could not get enough. When friends would get together, almost inevitably the conversation would turn to Clinton, when it was just men, we would collectively shrug our shoulders and look at one another and seem to do a group think of getting head in the oval office, no one saying anything for a few awkward moments.

If women were around, we would fein intolerance and claim that a man is only as strong as his commitment.

During the entire Clinton oral-gate as the media began to call it, I kept thinking, really, isn't this more of a personal issue with his wife? I mean, it's fun to be getting all the sordid details and everything, but in the end, the real judgement would come from his wife. What was interesting, at the time I began to ask my male friends if they would have done the same thing in the same position. The results were not surprising. Gay, straight, transgendered, republican, democrat, married, single, Christian, Jew and everything in between, 100 percent said you bet.

As a quick side note, if you Google Jasper Flem, seriously, the first page that comes up is this. FLEM

What congressman Weiner did was right on, good clean fun and to be expected. Like the vast majority of men, I totally and completely support his silly picture taking, his immature picture sharing and his probable engagement in meaningless sexual behavior via the internet. For the life of me, I still can not find what it is he did wrong, although he is Jewish and he does shave his chest, that I do have a problem with.

Did I miss something? Some sort of secret contract or press conference? Why do you think smart phones have cameras and internet connections anyway? Who develops these products? Nerdy engineers. Who uses them? Nerdy engineers and sexually repressed business people. Who sends pictures of their junk to strangers on the internet? Almost everyone, it seems. As a side note, my attorney Beth Libitard has a racy video of herself doing some sort of yoga Karma Sutra thing, it might be posted on YouTube, if not, www.kittytrannylesboxrateddisgustoporn.com.

So, to stand with my fellow New Yorker, because at a time like this, we are all New Yorkers, I say, all of us, well, those of us with smart phones, we should all, right now, right this moment, take a picture of your junk and send it to Nancy Pelosi (@NancyPelosi) and remind her that what our forefathers said all those months ago in the bible is still sort of true today, "thou should probably not post pics of your junk on the internet."

  2. Misogynist much? I love how you think men behave differently around only men. You are banal and, what, 14?
    My sense is you just posted this so you could type the word weiner numerous times. Great job. Mission accomplished. Loser.

  3. If I had a weiner I'd probably move to New York. If I had a weiner I'd seriously be in the junk pile.

  8. It's hard for me to really get my hand around Weiner on this one. I mean, it's a hard subject. With his rigid outlook and dripping machismo, I find it difficult to not want to thrust myself right into this story.
