You know, Weiner’s real sin is that he lied to the media Villagers. You can hear it in their shocked narratives: “He went on all these shows and lied, saying it wasn’t his…”
How dare he? Once again, it’s about the egos of the media tribe. Fatal mistake.
This, as we know, was the real sin of Bill Clinton. Villagers have rules for affairs, and Clinton broke them. And so did Weiner.
Mind you, the Villagers don’t mind when you go on TV and lie to them about reasons to invade another country, or to crash the economy. That’s to be expected.
But when you lie about sex, you’ve insulted their imaginary credibility. It’s all about them.
you just inspired a rather angry blog (and a phone call) at my place about allyson schwartz.
