Sexting Congressmen

The political world continues to turn in strange ways. I think the recent case of the Weiner Congresssman. I am a little confused these days about all the politicians who are sexting to women they intend to meet and impress though showing their vital body parts in pictures. So I have a few observations to make about it all.

The latest political sex scandal was that of a Congressman in New York named Anthony Weiner...yep as in his weenie that he thought so impressive. At least he has the right name for sending sexually suggestive invitations to others. It may be an excuse for him that he can use in court too. "Your honor, my parents are to blame for my proclivity to send pornographic pictures of my weenie. They should have named me something other than Weiner."

Congressman Weiner is married to a a very pretty and loving wife, yet he admits (but only after being caught) to having sexually charged relationships with women via Face book and Twitter. The young lady who didn't know Weiner until he surprised her with shots of his bulging weenie in underpants photos, turned him in by releasing to the media some of his weenie pictures. She apparently doesn't want to see a stranger's weenie, even if it is a congressional one.

I can understand a woman being attracted to a man who shows her his bulging bank statement or opulent mansion photos, but why would any man think that a picture of his bulge would enchant a lady? Just a few weeks ago another married New York congressman (there must be something in the water that makes those NYer's show their favorite body parts) resigned after it was disclosed that he E mailed shirtless pictures of himself to a woman he met on Craigslist. You can relax, I wouldn't show you my under pant bulge or shirtless body because, not only is it tawdry, but you would die laughing if you saw either. I suppose those Congressman are more proud of their bodies than most of the rest of us.

I wonder why they don't just find a hooker somewhere and show him or her their total package. It seems less risky than sexting dirty photos of themselves. But then, maybe they are addicted to sexual display and think the thrill of trying not to be nabbed by their ----- is an irresistible urge they can not resist.

Sometimes they start their sexting by making casual comments to see if there is enough interest to send bulging body part photos. Yet another New York Congressman, Eric Massa, was forced to resign last year because of a gay episode in which me made sexy comments ot a male staffer to see if he could get a "rise" from the victim. I can understand a gay man sending a bulge picture to another man because they are merely comparing essential body parts. ("Look at my love muscle! Can you beat that?") But why would a woman want a picture of a stranger's weenie?

Despite having to resign and losing his political career and probably his marriage, I think Anthony Weiner might just benefit from this whole scandal. Given the idiocy of our culture and the inane nature of Reality TV, I envision Anthony Weiner getting his own Reality TV show out of all of this mess. They could call it "Show Us Your Weiner".
