Why isn't Weiner being charged with a crime yet?

He called in false reports of hacking to the feds and lied. To top it off he solicited under aged girls.

In his state he's still fairly popular. Lots of folk think it's not a big deal. Sound's like a great state not to live in.
I'm continually impressed that Joe Q public thinks a proven liar might be a good guy to run things. Of course people likely want the people who represent them to be like them.

He did not file a false report with the police and it isn't a crime to lie to the media.
> To top it off he solicited under aged girls.
Has this been proven? If so, he will probably be charged, eventually.

Because a mistake made in his private life is enough to make me question his ability to govern? He's a man, he sent some pictures of his dick to some women... I've done it before, big fuckin deal. Politicians are unfortunate to be in the spotlight throughout their tenures, they aren't celebrities, let them do their jobs, and if they vote the way their delegates want them to, they are a good representative.

Blatantly lying about it when history shows it will out would make me question their judgment. But your point is well taken. Who gives a shit about their private lives. Of course they rave about their private lives when asking for your vote. But really many Americans care little for ethics or honesty. They want results based on their desires.

I have never once considered a person's private life when voting. I wouldn't care if it was a half black half iranian bisexual tranny running for office, if they wanted to move the city/county/state/country in a direction that I believe it should be moving in, they will get my vote. People don't understand that basing their votes on their own personal morals, they throw out the reason they should actually voting for.
Poor rednecks down south vote for conservatives running on faith based platforms, when those conservatives win, the people seem blind that their cause has not been helped (their poverty) by voting somebody "similar" to them. The rich white man will only be looking to consolidate wealth and power amongst himself and his country club friends.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, who knows.

I don't think you're wrong.
I just can't seem to find anybody who will vote my desires.

The problem is that a mistake made in private can allow somebody that governs to be blackmailed or improperly influenced.

What? This was a poll taken in his fucking home state. Has your bias clouded your ability to read and comprehend? All they did was report the fucking results.

and how much against? I'll bet it isn't 52%. I'll bet 48 is still a majority. Anyway sorry I blasted you. My bad.
And hell what do i know. Maybe NPR made it all up but it wasn't a very flattering report on the guy.

The only thing I can see him getting charged with is if he used congressional resources to carry out his extra-curricular activities. Who knows though maybe the house ethic's committee will come up with something. What Charlie Rangel did was far worse IMO and nothing happened to him. So, outside of his constituents voting him out I see nothing coming of this.

11% believed he'd do an outstanding job, 37% believed he'd do ok, 9% were indifferent/didnt know, said who? or could give two shits about his cawk
if you went with the weighted average, he's at a 1-2% approval

Who cares what they do in their private life? You gotta be kidding me. Not long ago I saw a story on a teacher that was fired due to the fact she was a stripper 20 years prior. No one said leave her alone then, and she never lied about it.
The point being if someone is able to flat out lie to, and deceive and disgrace his own family as well as make a laughing stock out of his wife, has zero honor, no trust from his constituents, as well as a complete lack of credibility. How could you believe a thing that comes out of his mouth from here on out. He is doing nothing but bringing down his party. Edwards isn't helping any. This is the type of shit people are sick and tired of.
Can any of these so called leaders, the ones that attempt to dictate our behavior, because of course they know best, keep from screwing someone while their wife is dying, watching their mistresses drown, getting blowjobs from fat slut interns, attempting to get ass pounded in airport bathrooms, or just debating on what the meaning of the word is, is. Its the typical lying, corrupt, b.s. self rightous hypocrisy that is sickening.
In the military there is something known as article 133. It states that one can be court martialed and lose all benefits, as well as face a year of incarceration for conduct unbecoming of an officer. I believe these same regulations should be applied to those in congress. If you can't refrain from screwing whores, taking bribes, attempting to fondle your congressional pages, then don't run for office.
