spring wife's
what has captured your attention in the news this week it's been
I a crazy newsweek in in many respects
I'm summer which has just been overshadowed by
by weiner in some way and I i
you know the won't give give me a sense in
yes now if they do it's been amazing I mean the united we derive a year in New
York City in New York City I mean if y'all
around the country are sick about what it's like for us here arm
which respond to some degree I mean you know the weather here was so disgusting
last week about what it was
said to get arm but it's amazing to be first off I i
respect that if the ratings driven media right penetrating German media
you know you gotta go for the eyeballs and that's just a commercial reality
I'll and yet to see a guy who had the first sex scandal with no sex
who is probably never gonna have sex again
is not having any sex right now at the media keeps demanding
people out that's really the level we're dealing with now
in american news add what we try to do what I like on my show last night we had
one call want to discuss his piece on anthony Weiner's record
put a lot of people you know don't really mind Carlos danger in 20 Stickley
supported the Iraq war
they're just angry about the sex thing and for
you know palestinians a palestinian-american they are ready no
a that anthony Weiner's record of Palestine and
and how to really defined logic he spent the
the guy he was a congress 12 years past one bill
are and really the most telling thing about him I've learned from other
congressmen we have on our show
it nobody wants him that no democratic congressman isn't doorstep and
pair of the critique went bad so it's kinda sad
and I do think it's a is it legitimate story I do you think that
for women anyone with a computer does work with email online behaviors like
and its you know New Yorkers will forgive a center
but they will not forgive a
serial lying BS artist yeah I mean I think I think about that
I mean you know feel to a large extent
I've largely avoided it just because I well 1i
you know it's just it the guy is there some
there some major pasala G there that I find a problematic but I also just never
particularly liked
a.m. saw him as a guy who is going to do much other than
then prine and you know there's definitely value for that
I in there really is in the house of people forget Anthony Weiner was that
the local loudest defender
and proponents single-payer health care at the congress yeah a long time
and progresses we're too love because he's on MSNBC every leading an attack
dog
and Pelosi may not like the guy but I have no doubt he raised a lot of money
for the party
yeah and and and also I think he did a good job at least carrying that message
I beginning in there there certainly value in there but I i
he doesn't strike me as a guy I want running this city
and a but for that matter I'll so
I'm not a big fan to Christine Quinn's but the you know i i well
way I think I think the best we could he certainly helping Eliot Spitzer this
week that's for sure
yeah thinking Elliott affects Indian
indeed I am in and let you know I'm not even clear frankly
I know maybe maybe there's a this has been a ratings Boone but
I you know had for the life of me I mean I
you know last night no like Chris Matthews is now gone on bringing
multiple psychiatrists onto the show
to break down easy its just its it we serve gone through the looking glass on
this stuff its assertive year
well its work it's really interesting and again you know
Debbie this is exactly we went to with with bill clinton as well
and you know celebrities have groupies athletes have groupies and
and political figures have groupies a that's a reality
but I how you handle that is very different when you're a politician when
you're running for votes in the public trust
I do think it's all legit news I really do it it's it's it's about society as
well
again I've so all that anthony Weiner's done she hasn't done anything that's
been
directly deliberately delicious are hostile to his wife it's been selfish
it's been spotless
personal yes and actually tried to be malicious to his wife
where's the American media really has I'll
much in the way they were hostile to Hillary Clinton what I don't get is
home Avidan whatever you think a ver has done everything society tells what
they're supposed to do
she stayed with her husband for better or for worse she nodded her wedding
bells but he didn't
G-seven a press conference this week that you stick around this marriage for
herself
for her child and for her family it's really hard for me to understand how
progress as a conservative skinny
you know crap all over her for that I do think if like missus clinton she harbors
political ambitions
the irony is she's now that compared to missus clinton at like it did missus
clinton so much that he ever decides to run for office
the only way she can really do it would be if she divorced him
and just create a whole new paradigm and the well carter's
ABC just really loves the guy and wants to work it out yeah
my feeling is like you know whatever's going on in their marriages their
business
the you know for me the issues just that the guy
a is sofa seal in lying
that about stuff that you know he
that I i find him creepy and just a
even beyond that I just don't think that has anything redeeming at offer as mayor
but
yeah I'm with you on this whole like you know the issuer
a his wife mean the in their marriage
that's for them I mean where you know hi
I don't know I I find the whole thing sort have if he became apparent that the
republican party would use him
to bludgeon the Democratic Party it away the democrats have not pledge in the
republicans for
hanging on to david Vitter I mean the irony with this guy is
if he had if you torture someone if you take a diaper fetish for the DC madam
already had lied to his family and his constituents and used taxpayer funds to
legally see his girlfriend and another country
the GOP would be forced to defend him if on
you know and and days so it's just it boggles the mind but
it does it does given the impression when it comes to
sex scandal the democrats have a higher standard
