I can see the Anthony Weiner issue as one regarding discrimination against women.

[jannyk]

1. I can see....

...dead people.

[LoZoccolo]

3. I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.

[Donnachaidh]

2. I can see

....dumb people beating dead horses .... :eyes:

[jberryhill]

4. I can see clearly now, the rain is gone....

[jorno67]

5. I can see for miles...

[Dr. Strange]

6. I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted
My arms are open wide

[demmiblue]

7. I can see Russia from my backyard.

[dmr]

8. LOL

:rofl:

[applegrove]

59. LOL!

[Lionessa]

9. Discrimination? Are you calling him a homosexual? Seems to me

he prefers women just fine.

You're quite nutty.

[LoZoccolo]

10. Female citizens should be able to contact their representatives without unwanted advances.

[Lionessa]

12. There is no indication whatsoever that the advances were unwanted.

As a matter of fact the back and forth that was read on Bill Maher that were exactly as they happened, ie not changed for comedic approach, sounded like she was well and fully agreeable to his advances.

[LoZoccolo]

17. Gennette Cordova did not expect the picture she was sent.

[Lionessa]

20. Link please.

[LoZoccolo]

23. http://tinyurl.com/3nrp8jo

[LadyHawkAZ]

24. She also wasn't disturbed or upset by it

are you going to cook all this dead horse meat once it's tenderized? I have BBQ sauce.

[LoZoccolo]

25. Do you think that at least some women would be disturbed or upset by it?

[LadyHawkAZ]

32. Irrelevant, she wasn't. NSFW:

Some unsuspecting woman might pick up a magazine or walk by an Armani shop and be flashed by disgusting sex-addicted pervert David Beckham.



And geez, he has such a beautiful wife too!

Some woman, somewhere, might be offended by this. Perhaps we need to hound him out of soccer (pardon me, football) and into treatment.

[LoZoccolo]

34. Ads don't imply that you have to respond sexually in exchange for congressional representation.

[LadyHawkAZ]

43. Please link to the report of Weiner demanding sex for

representation. That's a new one to me.

[LoZoccolo]

50. Female constituents shouldn't have to worry about whether he implying it.

[LadyHawkAZ]

55. Please link to the report of Weiner implying a demand

of sex for representation. That's a new one to me.

[LoZoccolo]

58. Did I say he undoubtedly was doing so?

[LadyHawkAZ]

60. In other words, you're making it all up + no link

BBQ sauce for your horsemeat, sir?

[LoZoccolo]

63. What should I be trying to prove?

[Lionessa]

26. So one out of six women claims she didn't expect it. The rest

seem to have been willing. He's definitely blunt, feisty, and willing to push boundaries, but also made him an EXCELLENT Congressman for old-style dems and progressives.

"The women who have acknowledged encountering Weiner on social media and then having personal communications with him varied in age, race, and location, and even in their willingness to engage the congressman in sexual discourse. But in each case Weiner’s online conduct in many ways mirrored that of his offline life — he was aggressive, blunt, feisty, and willing to push boundaries with an apparent disregard for the possible consequences"

[LoZoccolo]

28. Zero out of six men who contacted him got unexpected sexual pictures.

[Lionessa]

33. So what? Making one bad decision about who to send a pic to

does not indicate misogyny or gender discrimination.

[LoZoccolo]

35. I don't have to wonder if I need to respond sexually in order to have access to my representative.

[Lionessa]

37. WTF? Now you're just being goofy. Have a good evening.

[LoZoccolo]

38. For what purpose do you think he sent the photograph?

[Lionessa]

39. Since I'm waiting for the evening to cool in order to get back to work,

I'll answer you one more time.

I don't know the purpose, and neither do you. Unless you have a link to the entire conversation that took place including all images. It may be, for example, that she wrote something that he mistook as an opening, or a pic perhaps she sent him that seemed like an opening. All I've read is her claim. With five others being agreeable, I find her claim suspect without proof.

[LoZoccolo]

41. What would you think if it was sent to you unexpectedly?

[LadyHawkAZ]

44. "Cool, show me more" n/t

[Lionessa]

46. I would ask him not to do it again, and that he must've mistook something

I said or did. I am a woman, and deal with men offering me things I didn't ask for on a regular basis. Simply say no thank you, misunderstanding, let's move on.

[LoZoccolo]

49. Would you then trust him to give your concerns as a constituent a fair hearing?

[Lionessa]

51. Sure, why wouldn't I?

[LoZoccolo]

52. Because he had at that point already used his position to discriminate and take advantage.

[Lionessa]

57. Broken scratchy record much?

[Stevenmarc]

11. I can see the bus being put in reverse

Enough already

[Lionessa]

13. Perfect response. Wish I'd thought of it.

[Doctor_J]

14. Were you thumbing through your calendar and found "Post Lots Of Flamebait"

on the June 28 TODO list?

[LoZoccolo]

19. I just finished a project and can take it easier.

[Doctor_J]

22. Congrats on the first one

depending on what the project was.

[Tx4obama]

15. I am a woman and I do NOT see it that way. n/t

[Doctor_J]

16. Lozloco is trying to break the unrec record today

[Lionessa]

21. +1000 ROFLMAO

[LoZoccolo]

18. That might be because you've never contacted your representative and recieved a sexual picture.

[Tx4obama]

31. And that fits of the definition of discrimination how?

There are REAL issues to deal with regarding discrimination against women - and Anthony Wiener is not one of them.

If you are wanting to be a help to women then your efforts would be of greater value if directed toward REAL issues that affect women.

[LoZoccolo]

36. A male constituent does not have to figure out how to react to sexual advances.

[Motown_Johnny]

27. I can see very well, there's a boat on the reef with a broken back

and I can see it very well





Edit to add:

Is the nightmare black or are the windows painted

[xphile]

29. I can see under the bridge. n/t

[Rex]

30. Ah, the guy that post oneliners strikes again!

At least you follow up and don't just do 'drive by posting'.

[pacalo]

40. Let's save the word "discrimination" for actual crimes against females.

Fox-inization (carelessness, minimization, false use) of the word only cheapens its value to real victims.

[LoZoccolo]

42. How many male constituents had to endure a sexual advance while contacting Anthony Weiner?

[pacalo]

47. Apparently, NONE. Only the rightwing nutjob who was stalking him caught a glimpse of it

& made sure EVERYONE saw it. And those who were offended by it must have never seen one covered by underwear &/or get dressed & undressed in a dark closet.

[Taverner]

45. I can see that you are still obsessed with the Weiner Scandal

I can also see that you will not rest until he's been beaten up, killed or forced to watch Dr Phil or whatever your moral compass is during these strange times

I can also see that some people still hate their sexual organs, and will not rest until everyone stops having sex for fun

Jeez, give it a fucking break already! He quit! You won!

[undeterred]

48. What Anthony Weiner issue?

[CreekDog]

53. you forgot to put any content in your OP

again. :eyes:

[jberryhill]

54. I see London, I see France; I See Weiner's Underpants /nt

[TK421]

56. my balls itch nt

[shimmergal]

61. That's the most ridiculous statement I've ever read.

The guy was desperate to have women tell him he had a nice body.

That's the very opposite of discrimination, in my book. Why else would he court disaster by risking his whole career just for female admiration?

[snooper2]

62. really, it's been so nice and then you have to go and bring a weiner back into the picture

:)

[Bonobo]

64. Honest question: Do you dislike Weiner because he was a Progressive? nt

[LoZoccolo]

65. What would that have to do with whether or not he was hindering representation?
