You know what? I don't care. It's not like I haven't sexted pics of my junk & don't care if he does, either. The country has bigger problems than Wiener's wiener.

Not that his wiener wasn't a pretty nice size (we all know half the GOP are just jealous about that and nothing else.)

i'm assuming your kidding.

No. I'm not.

The country is falling in on itself because we're in what... 3 wars now? We're handing over control of the election process to Chinese conglomerate countries, we're giving BP a 3 trillion dollar tax cut, we're letting banks fool people into buying houses they can't afford just so they can make money off the foreclosures.

And you want me to give a shit about some guy who was being naughty online?

Buddy, I've done worse things that that this morning. And I'm not even kidding. Yes, in fact today, while sitting at my desk I actually DID sext a cell phone picture of my dick to a guy I met on Grindr. And nobody was hurt by it.

So I don't give a shit if a Democrat, Republican or Whig is doing the same thing.

Ok, but... so?

I WANT my elected officials to be regular people. Smart... qualified... but the last thing I need is a bunch of repressed, sexless Christians who are all busy-body about who's fucking who and who's in church Sunday morning.

I WANT my elected officials to be focused on their jobs while at work. And I want them to mind their own business when they're not... and i'll do the same. If he's not going to vote to take away my right to marry a man... I won't vote to have him fired for being naughty late at night.

to each their own.

but he is a married man. i can see in a moment of weakness sexting your dick to a hot girl who is half your age, but he admitted to doing it with 6 different women. there is a definite pattern there. he is a representative and a government official and out of respect to his district he should act accordingly. and when he was caught he should have been a man and admitted it straight away instead of giving his half assed excuse that he "did not know if it was a pic of me or not". all that explanation did was make him look foolish, and now he is going to be a jay leno punchline for the next 5 years. i am not being self righteous, because i have sexted myself to a former girlfriend before. someone that i loved and cared about. she was not some random woman on my twitter page. but i am not a public servant, and if i were it would have influenced my decision and my conduct. but since i am not and i am a quiet, unknown nobody, i figured "why not?".

Why the hell should he resign? Because he flirted with some chicks online? Who gives a damn? From what it sounds like, it's not like the pictures or conversations were unsolicited. He wasn't straight up harrassing these girls, they were all having fun with it too it seems.

i like the guy. a lot actually. but this is not the conduct a public official should participate in. and you know i am one of the most liberal guys on here. people have been wanting to bring him down for awhile now. this is a black eye for him and for his party. i am all for sexting, but come on, you are in the house of representatives for fucks sake, you are not joe sixpack...

i have a feeling that one of breitbart's indiscretions will come back to haunt him one day.

I just don't see the big deal, man. It's not like he is harrassing these girls and sending these things around randomly. Is it wrong for a public official to act like this? Sure. Half of politicians in this country are probably cheating on their spouses though and we are worried about some guy dicking around on the web. I just don't see it.

What would be the difference if he flirted with these girls in person? Would you say the same thing?

it is not quite as embarrassing to be caught flirting with a girl where only a few people find out about it, but but doing it where there is a digital record of everything you put over the internet for everyone to see is not the wisest of choices for someone who depends on the money donated to him by his constituents.

no, if you would read back it says "i am all for sexting" meaning if that is what 2 people want to do then more power to them. it does not affect me at all unless my g/f is sexting her vagina to random dudes, then it bothers me. and yes people really do sext. the only reason i did was because she was 17 time zones away from me and it was a nice thing to do when you are far away from and missing someone you love deeply for months at a time.. looking back i would not have done it, as we ended up breaking up, but at the time it seemed like a reasonable thing to do given the circumstances.

i don't know where you have been juggler, but are you married or anything? i ask because i am not married, am in a band, have done a lot of dating over the years, and a few girlfriends of mine have sexted me their breasts or various other body parts without my asking. maybe they are just a little wild, maybe they are pretty liberated, or maybe it makes them feel sexy and naughty to do it, i don't know. but it is more common than you think. i just did it with that one woman because she did it first and i wanted to return the favor because i loved her more than life itself....

No doubt it was a poor decision. I don't diagree with that at all, I just don't think he did anything that he should lose his job over. Incredibly embarassing for sure, but that's about it in my book.

This is no longer about sexting. Way deeper issue is the lie when he got busted. Had he come clean, said he told his wife after the story broke and "yes she is pissed" he would have even connected with many constituents instead of his lies that lead to deserved condemnation.
His sexting may have been "immoral".
His lies and how they were conducted is deplorable.

It's so sad to me that this is even a story. Our nation has become a society of simple minded fools which boils everything down to a TMZ gossip story. And anyone who claims this somehow matters (other than on his personal life) is insane. If you draw your morals or codes or parenting skills from politicians, movies stars, musicians or sports stars, you're far more a fool than anything the likes this fellow did or said.

EXACTLY! I have no problem with elected officials sleeping around or participating in stuff like this and further more I don't give a shit! This is not a news story. This is a problem between a guy and his wife, not him and his constituents. I don't like the fact that stuff like this makes the news; affairs and marriage problems happen to everyone and stuff like this needs to be ignored by the media...how much did you hear about the 5 soldiers killed in Iraq today or any other of the 5 million more important things going on right now?

Who does that? Me and my buds. A lot of men do.

Hey, if it wasn't for men wanting pictures of naked people on the internet, I wouldn't have two houses, two cars, two motorcycles, two dogs and a gardener.
