Anthony Weiner, the New York City mayoral candidate and former former U.S. Representative who served New York's 9th congressional district, has admitted to 'sexting' snapshots of his penis to a woman...again.
It was the revelation of similar behaviour (and subsequent denial followed by confession) that led to Weiner's resignation from Congress in June, 2011.
The Guardian has the story HERE.
Apparently, New Yorkers are prepared to accept a mayor who's kind of a dick; but a married man who sends pictures of his dick to other women? Not so much.
The formerly supportive New York Times wrote in a scathing editorial:
At some point, the full story of Anthony Weiner and his sexual relationships and texting habits will finally be told. In the meantime, the serially evasive Mr. Weiner should take his marital troubles and personal compulsions out of the public eye, away from cameras, off the Web and out of the race for mayor of New York City.
It's a shame because Weiner always impressed me as a smart, passionate Democrat. But it seems clear that he really isn't cut out for public life.
