My problem is this equation of his "cheating" with corruption. Its not the same.

ALSO: I dont know who this politician is and i dont care at all about him.

No one is equating cheating with corruption. The corruption was using his office resources to procure and communicate with these women.

This is no different then someone being fired for using the company car to go pick up some chicks. Except in this case the person footing the bill is me.

So I'm glad this doesn't matter to you at all boogy; but you aren't paying for it.

Btw; corruption is also lying to your constituents; which I've now mentioned like 15 times. Is that clear boogy?

maybe you aren't in his district, but you live in NYC (http://kdice.com/discussion/topics/44806076). one would think you might have an idea who this man is.

im not american. i have no right to vote here. i know that my own rep is rangel right?

and code i pay taxes here just like you. ;) I just don't complain about it.

@boogy

Yeah Rangel is your rep; who was also recently found guilty of 11 ethics violations in congress. He had to step down from the Weighs and Means Committee.

Rangel took two trips to the caribbean with corporate gifts. He also was found guilty of failing to disclose at least $600,000 in assets and income in a series of inaccurate reports to Congress; using a rent-subsidized New York apartment for a campaign office, when it was designated for residential use; and failure to report to the IRS rental income from a housing unit in a Dominican Republic resort.

All of these netted him 100s of thousands of dollars (maybe millions) of tax payer money.

haha good catch

Weiner sent emails to former X-rated performer Ginger Lee – to whom he’d previously acknowledged sending innocuous messages via Twitter – coaching her to deny that they had been communicating, reported TMZ, which obtained the messages and says the two had exchanged “scores of sexual emails over a long period of time.”

“The key is to have a short, thought out statement that tackles the top line questions and then refer people back to it,” Weiner is alleged to have written in a June 1 email. “Have a couple of iterations of: ‘This is silly. Like so many others, I follow Rep. Weiner on Twitter. I don’t know him and have never met him. He briefly followed me and sent me a dm (direct message) saying thank you for the follow. That’s it.’”

Sounds like he was coaching the women to lie to reporters and investigators. Boner; you may want to read up on his methods so you can avoid being bamboozled by the political spin next time. Political acumen... you were saying?
