The Carlos Danger Name Generator
I'm Salvador Trouble
New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner has vaguely confirmed allegations from gossip website the Dirty that he sent sexually explicit chat messages and photos to additional women. "I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out, and today they have," he said in a statement. Later, he admitted in a press conference that some of these liaisons happened after he resigned from Congress in 2011.

One of the specific claims in the Dirty's reports is that Weiner used a Yahoo account with the pseudonym "Carlos Danger" to email photos of his penis--a fact that Weiner has not confirmed or denied.

Weiner Admits to Sending More Lewd Messages, Photos to Women
[WEEKLYSTANDARD] Anthony Weiner, the former congressman and Democratic candidate for mayor of New York City, has a statement on allegations he sent racy messages on social media sites to a woman who was not his wife:
I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out, and today they have. As I have said in the past, these things that I did were wrong and hurtful to my wife and caused us to go through challenges in our marriage that extended past my resignation from Congress. While some things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what I did was wrong. This behavior is behind me. I've apologized to Huma and am grateful that she has worked through these issues with me and for her forgiveness. I want to again say that I am very sorry to anyone who was on the receiving end of these messages and the disruption that this has caused. As my wife and I have said, we are focused on moving forward.

Weiner: 'I Am Very Sorry' For Latest Sexting Revelations
[NEWYORK.CBSLOCAL] Mayoral candidate and former U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner responded apologetically Tuesday, following revelations of another alleged cybersex relationship.

A woman claimed anonymously this week to the gossip site "The Dirty" that she exchanged lewd photos and had explicit phone conversations with Weiner after the scandal that led him to resign from Congress in 2011.

The woman told the Web site she was 22 when Weiner began the online relationship. Site editor Nik Ritchie wrote that the woman claimed Weiner and the woman "had a relationship for six months, and she believed they were in love."

Weiner allegedly used the pseudonym "Carlos Danger" in the conversations, the Web site reported.

She claimed that Weiner offered to help her get a condo in the fashionable South Loop section of reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,...
"without me asking," according to "The Dirty."

The site published a censored picture allegedly supplied by the woman, which she claimed was of Weiner's genitals.

"I was young and dumb," the woman told the site. "I just want people to really know he's lying when he acts like he has changed."

#1  Weiner as "Carlos Danger" in conversations on the web ---- cute isn't he ?

Are you folks in New York City playing with a full deck, do you really believe Mr Wiener best represents you ?

#2  He is very sorry he got caught-----again.

This is the type of person people want to represent them???? When this type of sicko is elected, he is not the problem, he is a symptom of the electorate, wherein lies the real problem.

#5  He's a Dem. He can give an apology for both past and future transgressions and his adoring public shall swoon. A 'pub not so much. More interesting will be seeing what "The Huma" does with him after he loses, considering his own little "War on Women"....

Home Front: Politix
McCain has New BFFs
Barack Obama, to hear his advisers tell it, has finally found The One he has been looking for: John McCain.

"We have been looking literally for years for someone we can cut deals with, and finally someone has stepped up," a White House official said. West Wing aides say they now talk with McCain roughly every other day.

McCain, to hear fellow Republicans tell it, has finally found The Two he has needed to make such conversations worth the bother: Sen. Chuck Schumer, a Democrat who can actually get things done in the Senate, and Denis McDonough, a White House chief of staff who actually cares what senators say and think and do.
Pssst, John: he only pretends to care...
The relationship to watch most closely is the one between McCain and Schumer.

A year ago, they weren't even friends. They fought over matters big, like legislation, and small, like whether Long Island should be part of the United States. After McCain said Long Island was "regrettably" a part of our nation, Schumer demanded an apology. "I'm sorry there's at least one of my colleagues that can't take a joke," McCain said on the Senate floor.

The two first got together late last year, on a successful effort to defuse a previous threat of the nuclear option with a proposal for filibuster reform. "McCain and I sort of bonded over stale Danish," Schumer said. Still, they didn't jell.

Sen. Lindsey Graham urged Schumer to make sure McCain joined the Gang of Eight working on immigration reform.
Because if anyone knows a squish it's Lindsey...
"I said, 'He and I don't like each other.' And he said, 'Let me work on it.' And he did," Schumer recalled. By the end of January, McCain and Schumer were buddy-buddy during a joint appearance at a Playbook Breakfast, and later took a field trip together to the Arizona-Mexico border. "It was hard to schedule, but he kept pushing me," Schumer said.

They now talk on the phone five or six times each day. "I run out of juice," McCain said.

#1  I'm beginning to think that the primary qualification for a government official should be that they don't know anybody in D.C..

Better yet, they can't find the place on a map.

#2  Interestingly or sadly ironic...not sure which, our tax dollars are used by the hundreds of billions by the NSA [and others] to conduct link analysis on both foreigner and US person potential "threats to national security", whilst the real criminal connections remain a mystery until inadvertently stumbled upon.

Eliot Spitzer Returns to the Campaign Trail
[POLITICKER] Former Gov. Eliot Spitzer made his first official campaign stop in more than two weeks this morning, greeting commuters in a frenzied appearance outside a subway station in Jackson Heights, Queens.
To quote Chicago, 1968: "The whole world is watching us!"
Mr. Spitzer, bursting with energy, handed out campaign fliers, cornered commuters, shook hands and bounded into traffic more than once--stopping buses, livery cars and even a North Shore ambulance as he touted his unexpected campaign for comptroller under the elevated 7-train track.
"And scratching its collective head..."
"Eliot Spitzer. I hope you'll vote for me on September 10th," he said, introducing himself to voters. "I hope I can count on your support September 10th," he said again and again.
"...and wondering 'what are those people thinking?"
While Mr. Spitzer was left on his own during his first campaign stop--a media circus in Union Square the day after announcing his unexpected bid--this time, the former governor was surrounded by a small army of campaign staffers and volunteers, waving signs and corralling voters.
"... if anything."

#3  Will 'Cuzin Paris' brunette doppelganger be coming along???
Posted by: JosephMendiola || 07/24/2013 2:16 Comments || Top||

#4  Spitzer is the more dangerous one: he's been a relentless power-monger. As attorney general he really went after Wall Street -- not that the Street lacks for criminals, of course, but Spitzer was more interested in shaking them down. He wants to be comptroller for the same reason -- he can use the office to shake pension funds down and make them hew to his 'moral agenda'.

Weiner in contrast is a lightweight political rogue. He just likes power. Huma wears the pants in that family (especially since Weiner keeps dropping his). Huma is the dangerous one; she just knows she can't get elected to anything so she'll be the power behind the throne. That's why she works for Hillary.
