Anthony Weiner: I'm "100 Percent Not" Sexting Right Now
[NBCNEWYORK] Anthony Carlos Danger Weiner
...aka Hot Dog Tony, the remarkably offensive sex maniac six-term New York congressman who resigned in 2011, then decided everybody had forgotten by 2013, when he decided to run for mayor of New York City...
tells NBC 4 New York he is "100 percent not" having any type of online relationships with anyone now, and says for the first time he has not kept any records of his past lewd affairs.
"Trust me on that!"
"I don't have any of the records," Weiner said in an interview Friday. "I deleted everything."
"Have I ever lied to you?"
I'm sure he did. But the phone company and the NSA have everything archived.
A woman came forward last month with explicit photos of Weiner and messages from him, revealing that the married mayoral candidate's affairs had continued long after he resigned from Congress in 2011. Since then, the embattled Democrat has sought to turn the conversation back to the day-to-day issues of campaigning.

He has been trailed at every appearance by news hounds and photographers, and gave a series of interviews Friday in what appeared to be an attempt to close the door on the conversation.

During his 15 minutes with NBC 4 New York, he grew weary of the topic, insisting at one point that the details of his illicit affairs, which he says ended about a year ago, didn't matter.

"The behavior that people know about, I did, over an extended period of time, with more than one person," Weiner said. "I just think at a certain point, OK, I think people know these embarrassing things about me. I think at a certain point now we have to have a conversation that goes to, alright, what else should people know?"

#2  Hmmm... While Huma may be Hillary's second daughter.... perhaps Anthony is Bill's 1st son he never had?

#3  Totally a Clintonista, look at the photo, it's just like Slick Willy who could turn of the water works at the drop of a hat or pants.

#4  "I don't have any of the records," Weiner said in an interview Friday. "I deleted everything."

No problem. The delete key is an urban legend. We have everything backed up at Fort Meade. Now continue to make a complete arse of yourself and provide the media distraction we so desperately need. An LGBT admission would be helpful, as would shaving your head. Every little bit helps. Again, please continue.

#5  It depends on the meaning of "now". At the moment he said it, he was giving an interview, so he wasn't sexting any one at that moment.

The ride home was another matter.

#6  It doesn't matter, You're screwed.

#7  I believe he thinks if waits out the whole election,all will be forgiven and forgotten. Allowing him to proceed to higher offices.

#8  "It doesn't matter, You're screwed."

I think that's what he's hoping for, RJ.

Oh, wait - you mean about the election ....

#1  Money in the bank? Establishment? Complaisant? Good Old BOy network? Challengers unlikeley to succeed according to press "experts" (aka concern trolls)? Opposition is Tea Party?

Sounds like just the guys that Rand Paul, Mike Lee and Ted Cruz managed to beat.

I just hope SC can come up with a Rand Paul, Mike Lee or Ted Cruz do beat little lord fauntleroy. I'd even settle for a Rubio if thats all they have, considering that Rubio has only gone off the rails once. so far. Citadel Grad hmm... I wonder if her politics are as solidly conservative as most Citadel grads I have served with long time ago.

#2  I had the same thought regarding politics OS. Strange, we so seldom here of cadet scandal at the Citadel or VMI when compared to that school with the mule mascot. Must be the waters.

#3  VMI still turns 'em out, as does The Citadel. Some traditions I hope never die.

#4  here is hoping ghramnesty is sent packing. bet dollars to doughnuts that if he loses the primary, he runs as independent and the dems throw their support to him a-la Murkowski. :(

#5  I wonder how Ms. Graham does without McStain to lead her around?
