Huma's Balls and Chain

Since age 5 his headlines have been writing themselves




There are plenty of those who view the entrance of a public figure's FAMILY affairs into a political race as a distraction. My opinion has always been that it depends on the case, and really each one stands on its own. This afternoon I rejected the media's obsession with President Obama's daughter Malia's smoking marijuana. Although technically her own secret service detail had the grounds to report her for that activity, for some reason it didn't seem like something that I should care about. 

But for Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband ANTHONY WEINER, now there that's a case where it's not just a distraction. It is a throbbing, veiny, rigid distraction that just bulges out of someone's shorts. I don't care how frivolous it is that we're still talking about a dumb-ass who fucked up his congressional career by sexting multiple women, getting exposed, blaming it on hackers, and then getting exposed as a complete liar. I don't care that he then ran for mayor of the largest city in the United States, a media hornets net of over 10 million people, and got caught doing it AGAIN. And now WEINER has done it AGAIN. He got caught flirting with someone online, a catfish, and now he's trying to lie about it AGAIN.

I've spent the evening watching the documentary WEINER  as well as the documentary Her's to Lose about his rival in the NYC mayor's race, Christine Quinn, who is herself a loudmouthed commentator on CNN now three years later. I am fascinated that these two, along with the current failure of a mayor Bill de Blasio and the former "Republican" mayor Michael Bloomberg are ALL now backing Hillary Clinton.  

The fact is that the Clinton association with Abedin is a parallel with her own clusterfuck of a professional life. How, for chrissakes, can we ignore the parallels:

The offense

Clinton: Has husband who has been caught having illicit affairs and perpetrating sexual assaults and then lying about them or settling out of court.

Abedin/Weiner: Has husband who has been caught seeking illicit affairs using explicit photos and then lying about them.

The excuse

Clinton: Has a relationship with technology where she claims emails have been lost, accounts have been hacked, and information stolen.

Abedin/Weiner: Has claimed to have been hacked in the past while knowing full well that the material leaked was his own sent to someone else.

The reaction

Clinton: Has forgiven repeated indiscretions by her spouse even though they undermine her public persona as a symbol of female empowerment.

Abedin/Weiner: Same as above. 

Having Anthony Weiner in any way connected to the White House would be a bounty for jokesters that would go beyond the wishes of any journalist's prayer. 

So don't go playing the card of Huma Abedin as the tragic victim here: If she had any objection to the nonsense that constantly drags her into the public spotlight she should have dealt with this in 2011, 

Instead we have her attached at the hip to this complete clown, and she refuses to break free: Here's a sample of what Mrs. Abedin refuses to give up.

Did the "Dancing Israeli" theorists actually read the FBI file?

A few months ago a friend of mine, like myself Jewish, suggested to me that there would be forthcoming indictments of Israeli agents for involvement in the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. He was convinced that documents slated for declassification would shine a light on an operation by Israel's Mossad that had either prior knowledge or involvement in the plot.  I would be remiss if I did not admit that for years controversial historical events, what are popularly panned as "conspiracy theories", are a topic that has fascinated me. But I've always had a blind spot for the 9/11 theories mostly because there were so many of them, and it is difficult to distinguish serious questions from spaced out hyperbolic speculation. And sure, I'll also admit that the idea that there could have been a nefarious plot to topple the Twin Towers and pull the USA into wars in the Middle East made me uncomfortable. After all, my own family hails f

A year later Ryan Dawson is Addicted to Lies, Part 1

 As I'm writing this it is the week after the 19th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, the event that defined my generation just as Vietnam defined the generation of baby boomers. It is a bitter day for many reasons. On the one hand there is the largely held sentiment that the almost three thousand victims of the attacks on the Pentagon and World Trade Center. Another reason compounding it is the lack of transparency by the US government and various other governments regarding the events leading up to the tragic attacks. And yet on top of that is the fact that opportunistic hoaxers have taken it upon themselves to take advantage of that lack of transparency and use the available information to concoct lies and canards in order to fit their worldview. In 2019 I debated one such person, Ryan Dawson of ANC Report. Typically I have the urge to find something redeeming in one of my opponents, but with respect to him the longer the exposure to his material the easier it is to see th

Tired of getting hit by the Mission boomerang yet?

Electoral failings have led liberals as a whole, and most Jewish Americans, to recalibrate beliefs in the name of a cynical political cause. Recovering them will be painful, if not impossible. Many like me that grew up in the 1990s remember that there were battles over obscenity laws relating to gangsta' rap, blasphemous films like Kevin Smith's Dogma , and banned book lists. Nowadays those cultural battles by social conservatives have largely been shifted to the back-burner, while admittedly social mores have degraded to the point where unabashed "Liberals" like Michael Strahan and Sarah Haines host child sex performers on their shows without batting an eye. It is cases like this that show there is a major divergence between social and cultural big L "Liberals" and intellectual liberalism. Traditionally liberalism stresses that stricter government suppression of social freedom only drives transgressors into the shadows and promotes deviant abuses of i
