Anthony Weiner finally admitted today what we kinda knew, or at least strongly suspected, all along. The picture(s) (now it has come to light there were more than one) were his and he did send them. There is already talk of a possible ethics investigation. Of course the idea of a government that shows us time and time that it has no ethics itself, conducting an ethics investigation would be laughable if it wasn't so pathetically sad.
Weiner should have resigned, but of course he lacks the class to do the right thing. Maybe, hopefully, the investigation will be more than a dog and pony show and will actually lead to his impeachment and removal from office. Of course, he is a Democrat, so he just may get off. That wouldn't be good, especially since him getting off is what started this whole mess. That and photographing the event. And Twittering it. Just the mere passing thought of a twittering Weiner makes me cringe.
