Mistake? C’Mon, Man!!! Mistake?

Seriously, if what Rep. Anthony Weiner did was a mistake we need a new word.  He, with time to consider, took pictures, saved them, named them, transferred them to whatever site or format needed and then transmitted them.  He, with time to consider, blamed the technology, the news media, the rascally republicans and Andrew Breitbart for a hack job and a scam and an attack upon his credibility.  He, with time to consider, lied to his family, new wife, constituents, the FBI, Capitol Police, fellow Congressional Representatives, his staff and, by the way, you and I.  He, with time to consider, cast aspersions on the reliability of Twitter, YFrog, and what ever other technology companies he uses.  And, then he stands at a podium and cries, asking forgiveness for his mistakes. Mistakes.  Mistakes? A mistake is when you act in error based upon a misunderstanding of the facts.  For instance, I write down the wrong answer on a math test because I either did not understand correctly the equation or the numbers involved.  A mistake is hitting send when you wrote “for” and meant “four”.  Sending over the internet  and interstate phone lines to young women and maybe underage girls pictures of yourself in a state of auto-erotic excitement is not a mistake!!  It is not even mere evidence of poor judgement.  It is an act of a man with no judgement of which to speak.  It is if not a criminal act at least an unethical one.  He harmed others reputations with time to understand what he was doing. He called into question the integrity of people and companies who work very hard to maintain their good names.  He isn’t an attorney but presumably he understands the terms libel and slander.  Every decision he has made is now suspect.  Were his votes in Congress cast under the duress of others who already knew of his sexual deviancies? Was his use of congressional power to investigate a talk show hosts sponsors done because he was forced to do so?  Or was his fevered rhetoric just more hubris created by a mind gone horribly astray?  In any case, how can any thinking person who values the integrity if the U.S. Congress not call for this man’s immediate resignation and possible indictment?  (Because, if any of these “women” were underage when he sent them these pictures he was in clear violation of federal law.)   New Yorks 9th District voters look like idiots even if they don’t know it.  To the rest of the country it looks pretty clear that they never really looked into their loudmouth Rep.’s background.  The Democrat Party ran the virtual yellow dog and they yapped along and voted for him for 6 terms!  And, should he get elected again, as is entirely possible, that will also not be a mistake.  It will be the considered act of a people who do not care about the character of the people who make decisions critical to their daily lives.  It will be evidence of more than merely poor judgement.  It will be an affirmation that they think a sitting Member of Congress clearly using his station and access to impress young girls is okey-dokey with them. It will be a reaffirmation of that most critical flaw in the thinking of modern day liberals, that character is situational.  That character can be turned off and on.  It can’t.  If Rep. Weiner will deliberately send pictures of his privates to your daughter he will think nothing of screwing you.  Face it; If you vote for Weiner, you are one.
