Unencumbered by any actual data, I'm guessing that until he rose to political success, Weiner was not mobbed by eager female acolytes. Once the Kissenger effect set in (I mean, good grief! If Henry could score top shelf pussy, there's hope for anyone...) he may have perhaps gone kid in candy store nutz. BTW (disclaimer) the JFK quote is completely fabricated.

My broader point, however, (not sure how power tripping applies) is that but for the competition for reproductive access, we wouldn't hardly get out of bed and go to work. (well, me anyway...)

I can't say with certitude whether that is my chest.

Hello, still waiting for nubile women to twitter-follow me! I'm a powerful and influential dude (with a guido neckchain), and I'm willing to reduce myself to a public sex object. If I have to publish penis pics, I'll do it.

Bob Cesca talks about the Weiner thing, and yes, this is what I was trying to say:

Among the casualties of the congressman's hubristic online grabass sessions, it appears as though the progressive movement will lose a smart, tough-talking champion. A rarity in the Democratic Party. If he doesn't resign, Congressman Weiner will never again enjoy the trust and admiration of the left, much less the press. If he does, he's going to have to work damn hard to reacquire it. Meanwhile, conservatives like Rush Limbaugh have been gifted another massive excuse to dust off out their ridiculously hypocritical family values attack against the left, even though the thrice-married, drug addicted, alleged sex tourist Limbaugh is far from being a family values action hero.

Sorry, I didn't get back to this until this AM. Had that kind of day yesterday and too tired last night to even open the laptop. I do understand why men do it, and I frankly don't care what happens between consenting adults. My question was more to why men who ask for and get votes to put them in positions of power, where they could actually do the right thing for an ailing country, take such chances, having to know they're inevitably going to get caught. That's the mystery.

The quote from "Moonstruck" is actually "Snap out of it!" and yes, it's when Cher slaps Cage for telling her he loves her. I realized later that I got it wrong. But I do love that movie!

Nice waterfall, dude! ;o)
