The Weiner Effect - Trend setter or Just Democrats being Democrats?

Apparently, former Rep Anthony Weiner is gone but not forgotten

Another Lib Resigns After Sending Unwanted Nudies to Online Flame

The New York Daily News reported:

Garden State Democrat Louis Magazzu announced his resignation Tuesday after nude pictures he sent to a woman he had been corresponding with were posted on a Republican activist’s website.

At least two of the photos showed the Cumberland County freeholder’s crotch, two showed him dressed to the nines in a suit, and a fifth showed him waist up without a shirt.

The tawdry photos – taken in front of a mirror with a smartphone – are similar to those that led to Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-Queens-Brooklyn) to call it quits in June.
​

Magazzu, a 53-year-old lawyer who had been an elected county official for more than a decade, apologized to his friends, family and constituents in a statement, but indicated he had been set up.

Was Chris Lee a Democrat? What about John Ensign?

Sounds to me it's more like politicians being politicians.

Pretty much... a creep is a creep is a creep.

It does appear

in terms of numbers, the democrats are winning this one

More like they are pretty even when it comes to sex scandals. The biggest difference in the two parties when it comes to sex scandals is in the hypocrisy.

Very true

the Left and the MSM tend to hold the Left to lower standards

More like the left doesn't think that private consenting adult behavior is anybody's business. The left doesn't run around preaching "family values" while banging their lobbyists.

 

[Neotrotsky]

Sure they do

They just preach a version you agree with so you don't notice

Yes... It's easier to bang lobbyists when you have no "family values"...

Stupidity doesn't know parties. Although the dems seem to look away if its one of their own.

[Sarcasm on:] Oh, no! Nude photos sent between consenting adults. The republic is crumbling and it's all the fault of the DNC which is advising Democratic Cumberland County Freeholders (whatever that is) to sext and whatnot. [Sarcasm off]

Seriously, though. What did he do wrong? The photos appear to have been solicited, and Magazzo had been legally separated from his wife for years (apparently I'm no allowed to post URL's yet, so just search google news for his name). Indeed, the woman allegedly lied to him in order to damage him politically. If so, she and her allies are the ones that betrayed Magazzo's trust, invaded his privacy, and damaged his career. If so, then they are wrong morally and may be subject to civil or even criminal sanctions.

Perhaps if expected better of all politicians
our country would have less problems

Ahh, yes. The party of no morals finger-pointing at the party of morals.

Actually nobody wins here.....unless you consider that we're talking individuals here, not party platforms.

Speaking of disgraced democratics, does anyone know if Tiger Wu actually stepped down yet?
