Move over, Anthony Weiner scandal, there is a new Weiner sex scandal in town. It's not like God was ever going to let us go another six hours without another Weiner joke. So here we go again: in New Mexico, Bernalillo County Commissioner Michael Weiner is in trouble for saying creepy things to a lady staff member, which, whatever, WHERE ARE THE WEINER PIX. New Mexico Democrats are calling on Weiner to resign, because Weiner is a weiner, etc. We look forward to reading about a third installment tomorrow morning probably, so the New York Times can do a "What's the Matter With Weiners?" trend piece.
From KOB.com :
Wiener admitted to telling a joke about having a Wiener and a Johnson on the County Commission, but says when he told a woman staffer she was "looking good," he was talking about her office decor and not her appearance.
New Mexico Democratic Party Chairman Javier Gonzales said Commissioner Weiner has created a very hostile offensive environment for employees to work in, time and time again.
Right, that's terrible and stupid, but WHERE ARE THE PIX. This is not an actual Weinergate Brand Sex Scandal until there are weiner photos, because that is how this works. [ KOB.com via Wonkette operative "Luke J."]
Obviously that joke can't be racist, since it calls them "African-Americans." If he had used the "n" word or something, it'd be different, but this seemed fine to him.
The best part of that story is that he sent it to the director of prisons, not long after there was a brutal beating of an African-American inmate at the Bernalillo County jail. Timing is everything with humor, after all.
It is just a depiction in cute stuffed cloth of
a pulsing red vein
