Anthony Weiner: The Stupidest Politician In America This Week

I have not been paying much attention to the WeinerTwit scandal -- the allegations that Anthony Weiner used Twitter to send a photo of his weiner to a disinterested college student -- until today, when he finally admitted that yes, he did indeed send it; it wasn't some nefarious right-wing hacker. And the only thing I have to say is: what a freaking idiot. When the likes of Newt Gingrich and John Edwards got caught up in sex scandals, at least they got to, y'know, actually have sex, and presumably enjoy an orgasm or two. What the hell did WeinerTwit hope to get out of this? Did he actually think the sight of his droopy middle-aged schlong would inspire an attractive young woman to drop out of college and move to the other side of the continent so she could enjoy proximity to it? Hell, did he actually think at all?
